Stop finding launch issues at the gate review
Govern every gate, open issue and sub-tier submission in one system, and see what will slip before it slips.
4.5/5 on Gartner Peer Insights
4 of 5 — Closure, not authorship
Four of the five most-cited IATF major findings are about actions that were never closed out. Source: IAOB nonconformance database across 19 certification bodies, 2025 AIAG Quality Summit.
Mar 2024 — The standard moved to your layer
AIAG rebuilt APQP around gated management, program metrics and sourcing risk, and split out the control plan. Source: AIAG APQP 3rd Edition and Control Plan 1st Edition, published 1 March 2024.
The market prices a slip
Product delay announcements cut average shareholder value by about 12 percent.
Schedules overrun by default
The average development project exceeds its planned schedule by 120 percent.
No margin for an escape
Ford and GM ran warranty claims above 3 percent of product sales through late 2025.
Sub-tier proof is contractual
Ford requires documented evidence your Tier 2s follow APQP, and they have no login.
Launch governance runs on a spreadsheet and a Thursday call. Three truths every launch manager already knows
Truth 1 — Your PLM holds the design, not the gate
Teamcenter is authoritative about the part and completely silent about whether Gate 3 can close on Friday.
Truth 2 — Open issue 37 belongs to nobody
The issues list lives in a workbook four people edit, one person circulates, and no system escalates when a date passes.
Truth 3 — The status report is built by hand
Your launch manager rebuilds the customer's deck every week instead of clearing the issues the deck reports.
Your core systems stay in place. The workflow connects them in one place
Kissflow runs the gates, open issues and evidence between your functions and your suppliers. Teamcenter, SAP and your QMS stay the systems of record.
Experience — the teams doing the work
Program management, quality, engineering and sub-tier suppliers. One shared record.
Kissflow — the execution layer
Routing, escalation, evidence and governance in one layer.
Systems of record — everything you already run
Native integrations, REST APIs and webhooks. Nothing existing moves.
Why program and quality leaders pick Kissflow
Built for the launch program, not just the design
01 — Not another PLM module
Run the gate review, the open issues list and the evidence behind both.
02 — Built for launch workflows
Gate checklists, open issues, sub-tier readiness and submission tracking from day one.
03 — 30 to 60 day rollout
Launch one governed gate review in weeks, without touching your PLM roadmap.
04 — Audit-ready records
Capture every approval, owner, date and evidence file as the program runs.
05 — System integrations
Connect Teamcenter, Windchill, SAP, Siemens Opcenter and your QMS.
06 — Reaches your sub-tier
Tier 2 suppliers submit readiness evidence without a seat in your systems.
Governance sits on top of enterprise-grade security
Governance is the visibility and control layer. Security is the infrastructure layer beneath it.
