This specification applies to the design and construction of injection mold tools that will produce thermoplastic vehicle parts globally.

Mission/Theme. This specification works in conjunction with the manufacturing requirements Appendix N given in the Statement of Requirements (SOR) (2.3 GVDP0014) during sourcing of injection molded parts. This standard enables the global production of high-quality injection mold tools at the lowest investment cost. Essential part specific concessions to this standard must be agreed upon by the Global Paint & Polymers Center (GPPC) engineer, the GM Product Development Design Engineer (DE), the molding supplier, and the tool source.

Classification. Not applicable.
