Define the rejection measure
The sample reports rejected pieces per million produced for one line and a stated period. That is not the same as defects per million opportunities or customer returns. Use the denominator that matches your records.
Separate containment from correction
Sorting suspect stock may contain an issue without removing its cause. The example describes checking causes, testing a change and monitoring the next production runs. Explain those stages rather than claiming a permanent zero-repeat outcome.
Describe supplier approval accurately
The engineer reviews records and raises findings for the authorised approval process. A PPAP document review does not imply unilateral approval of every supplier or certification of the whole quality system.
