Contract, design and process review before serial/tool order to prevent problems, misunderstandings and to lower risks.
Intention is to make sure the Veoneer requirements and specifications are met.
To involve suppliers early enough to be able to introduce changes to improve QCD (Quality, Cost and Delivery). (before design freeze!)
To agree on all technical and commercial aspects of the business.
Input from Veoneer:
Project information from previous process steps.
For CLD 2 and CLD 3 projects (Ref.:"SQPS-927 CLD3 GUIDELINES"), a Contract Review process is started by Veoneer and a review time plan is provided.
Updates of drawings, specifications and standards.
Delivery and packaging aspects, volumes, ramp-up, PPAP-requirements (Production Part Approval Process), special testing and gauging requirements (if any), VS 412 (Interim Inspection Plan).
Veoneer or customer directed sourcing requirements, if applicable.
Information from previous lessons learned with same or similar products and processes.
Collaboration with supplier to resolve all feasibility and product review open issues.
Requirements:
For all projects the supplier must ensure:
That all feasibility and product review open issues are resolved before serial order (e.g. tool order etc.).
That updated Team Feasibility Commitment (TFC) and impact on product cost and timing for any design change is provided, when necessary.
Review of own and Veoneer provided lessons learned with same or similar products and processes and definition of appropriate actions.
Identification and preparation of material-, machine-, man-power- and other requirements to support the ramp-up plan.
Compliance with Veoneer source directed requirements, if any.
For CLD 2 and CLD 3 projects (Ref.:"SQPS-927 CLD3 GUIDELINES"), a Contract Review process is started by Veoneer. The requirements for suppliers to actively supportthis process are:
Appropriate supplier representatives participate in the review process and attend the meetings.
Supplier prepares and provides necessary information (i.e. preliminary tool design and Process-Flow-Chart, process layout etc.) for the meetings.
Actively support the supplier deliverables in the Contract Review Process (use the Contract Review - Template).
Finalization and completion of Contract Review Process before serial order (e.g. tool order etc.) :
All Contract Review open issues should be closed.
For any open issues not closed an approved action plan, which supports the project time line shall be available.
Both parties (Veoneer and supplier) commit, agree and sign-off the "Contract Review - Template" -document.
Output from Supplier:
Completed Feasibility Study process: All open issues from the TFC (Concern Action Plan) are resolved before Veoneer Design Freeze and serial order.
