3.5.0 Purchaser Furnished Material: When the purchaser furnishes material, the
supplier's procedures will include, as a minimum, the following:
a) Examination upon receipt to detect damage in transit.
b) Inspection for completeness and proper type.
c) Periodic inspection and precautions to assure adequate storage conditions
and to guard against damage from handling and/or deterioration during
storage.
d) Identification and protection from improper use and disposition.
e) Verification of quantity.
The supplier will report to the purchaser any purchaser furnished material found
damaged or otherwise unsuitable for use. In the event of damage or malfunctioning
during or after receipt, the supplier will determine and record probable cause and
necessity for withholding the material from use.
3.6.0 Nonconforming
Material: The supplier will maintain an effective and positive
system for controlling nonconforming material. Nonconforming material identified by the
supplier will not be shipped to the purchaser without written authority. Unless other wise
instructed by the purchaser, the supplier will hold such material until the purchaser
reviews and dispositions the request. Nonconformances, which can be reworked by
repeating part or all of the initial process (other than special processes), will be
considered as rework and can be accomplished without purchaser approval.
3.6.1 Shipment of Nonconforming Material: If during gage calibration, rejection
analysis, etc., it is determined that nonconforming material may have
inadvertently been shipped, the purchaser will be notified immediately.
3.7.0 Records: The supplier will maintain adequate records of all inspections and tests.
The records will indicate the nature and number of observations made, the number and
type of defects found, the quantities accepted and/or rejected, and the nature of
corrective action taken as appropriate.
3.8.0 Personnel Qualifications: Qualifications of supplier employees are only critical for
calibration services of SSI equipment. Employees of calibration suppliers shall be
ISO/IEC 17025 trained.
