Difference Between Rework Repair PDF

The document discusses the differences between rework and repair according to IATF 16949. Rework is defined as an action taken on a nonconforming product to make it fully conform to original specifications. Repair is defined as an action taken to make a nonconforming product acceptable for its intended use, which may require a concession. The key differences are that after rework a product fully conforms to specifications, while after repair it is simply made acceptable for use. Rework does not always require customer approval, while repair does. Rework poses a lower risk than repair. Both require documented processes and traceability.
