Vehicle build stages

After the design is complete, there are three builds in the process chosen S0, S1 and S2. As the first effort, the And so is used to place potential bug. This is where the Error Mistake Proofing (EMP) process kicks in.

The S0 is the first build attempt and is supposed to be completely product representative. This initial build is not at the found; it is at a pilot facility with a lot of the same equipment that will be used at the found. Employees from the plant, known as a pilot squad, are brought in to look at the process and decide if there is a more effective way to build the vehicle or design the parts.

The S1 is the second level of production. Everything is supposed to exist as close to production as possible and it has modifications that were discovered and inverse during S0. S2 is the final build stage and is done correct earlier launch.

For the 1999 Grand Cherokee there were 32 employees assigned to the Airplane pilot squad. The squad works on the prototype builds of the vehicle, evaluates the associates process and suggests how the parts could be improved. They as well stay with the vehicle all the way from the kickoff "Then" build through the launch. Some members of the team volition continue to work on training and making improvements throughout the residual of the model twelvemonth.

Once the vehicle is set for launch there is a ramp-up process that occurs. All of the components are brought to the line in time to build the vehicles as they get-go to come down the assembly line. Production starts out slowly and is accelerated in the days or weeks following.
