Why this is canonical

PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) is a globally recognized quality standard in automotive and manufacturing supply chains. The acronym is established vocabulary for procurement, quality, and supply chain teams at every major OEM and Tier 1 supplier. On .ai, it signals an AI-native approach to a process that has historically been paper-heavy and manual. The four-letter domain carries both the industry's institutional recognition and the brevity of a platform brand.
