our Team members and their Engagement to provide High Quality products and services to promote and enhance Customer Satisfaction.
We continually improve our system and processes through ongoing evaluation of Company Objectives that support progress.
Our commitment is to ensure that requirements and expectations for Quality and Safety are achieved while continuing to remain competitive.
Section 1.0 Communication and Expectations
VUTEQ has elected the requirements of the technical specification ISO / TS
16949:
for automotive suppliers. We are committed to continually improve our systems during development
planning, product / process validation, production and delivery of quality products for our customers.
This takes the commitment of all of our suppliers and associates to ensure that these requirements
and those of our customers’ are properly implemented and maintained. By adhering to this
2009

VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
internationally recognized system, we assure our customers and ourselves a
level of performance that is consistent with the quality requirements
throughout the world.
As a supplier to VUTEQ we require, as a minimum that you are third body
registered to ISO 9001: and / or are designated by our customer(s) as an approved
source. Further development of your system to meet the requirements of ISO/TS 16949 is also
required and will be contingent on your company’s performance and the importance of the
product, material or service that you provide.
Laboratory facilities used for inspection, testing or calibration services are required to be accredited
to ISO / EC 17025 or national equivalent. Alternatively, our customers may approve these services.
Laboratory facilities are also required to provide a defined scope detailing the qualified services
including equipment and personnel.
VUTEQ Canada will provide the necessary direction towards meeting these requirements and
provide support for supplier’s development. Suppliers are required to monitor the performance of
your manufacturing processes and documentation verifying these activities may be requested
through our Quality department. The ‘Supplier Audit Form’ will be utilized as required to ensure
new/potential suppliers meet the requirements of Vuteq Canada.
Suppliers are encouraged to contact the Purchasing and Quality Coordinators with any questions
regarding our requirements or other issues that may arise. The following Coordinators can be
reached by phone at ( 519 )421-0011 and / or fax ( 519 )539-6385

with the PPAP package. The Level of PPAP submission will dictate which required documents
are included. Failure to submit the checklist, or any required documentation can lead to the
PPAP being formally rejected.
Level 3 Submission is the default for all submissions to VUTEQ unless a written waver is
granted by the Quality Department.
Dimensional evaluations should be performed on a minimum of one piece unless requested
otherwise. If multiple cavities are used a minimum of one piece must be provided from each
cavity unless requested otherwise.

supplier.
Section 3.3 Pre-Launch Activity
Page 8 of 16
VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
During the product development phases, the supplier will be
required to maintain a Process Readiness Confirmation Check sheet
(PRCC) and supporting documentation which will be submitted to the Vuteq new
program team at each major event; onsite review and confirmation may be required or
requested by the Vuteq team.
For each trial build, the supplier will be required to complete the Trial Build Status
Sheet to capture the process maturation.
The Supplier will create an Inspection Standard (IS) for the products that they will be
supplying to Vuteq. The IS will capture key/critical points of each product; including
dimensional, material performance and visual requirements. Material performance
testing shall be completed by the supplier on their product unless specified otherwise
by Vuteq.
The IS will be signed and approved prior to PPAP submission.
All prelaunch / prototype materials will be identified with the ‘Vuteq Pre-Production &
Prototype Material’ tag printed on blue paper. A hard copy of the measurement data
will be included with the product and an electronic copy will be provided to the
appropriate parties at Vuteq.
PPAP Rejection
PPAP’s will be rejected either formally or informally. Formal rejection will be given based on
numerous or major AIAG PPAP non-conformances and will result in administration fines of
$200.00 per day until the issues are corrected and the PPAP is approved. IMDS submissions
must be completed by the PPAP requested date. PPAP will not be approved until IMDS is
submitted and approved. Failure to submit IMDS will result in administration fines of $200.00
per day until completed submission.
Section 3.4 CQI Requirements
Suppliers supplying product to our GM business will be required to submit all relevant
sections of CQI on an annual basis as a requirement from our Customer. The sections
required will pertain to supplier processes. Suppliers are required to ensure their CQI
requirements do not expire and be prepared to have their annual audit complete and
ready to submit to Vuteq by the second week of the expiration month. Vuteq Supplier
Quality representatives will contact Supplier and advise of the approaching requirement
in the first week of the expiration month. Suppliers are to ensure only
competent/qualified auditors are conducting the CQI audits. An administration fee of
$200 a week will be debited from the account of any Supplier that has neglected to
provide requested audit records by the expiration date. If you do not have a copy, or
understand the requirements, a copy can be obtained via your Quality rep. After the
yearly submission a visit on site may be required to confirm the audit and schedule
further improvement activity.
Section 3.5 Process Changes Request Requirements
Any point in a program that required a change to a dimension, process, material,
manufacturing location, packaging etc. will be required to follow the Process Change
Page 9 of 16
VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
Request (PCR) process. The PCR process applies to both Supplier
and Vuteq initiated changes to ensure that proper documentation and
project timing is maintained. All PCRs will require at least a project schedule to be
attached with the PCR form. PCR material will be identified with the ‘Vuteq Pre-
Production & Prototype Material’ tag printed on blue paper. Where applicable, a hard
copy of the measurement data will be included with the product and an electronic copy
will be provided to the appropriate parties at Vuteq.
Section 4.0 Forecasts, Ordering, Labels and Customs
4.1 Weekly Planning Forecasts
The Material Coordinators will send via email or fax a Planning Schedule for the parts
purchased from the supplier. VUTEQ does not run an MRP system and the planning forecast
is not a firm order the supplier ships against. The planning forecast is an estimate of our
usage based on our customers’ requirements. Some weeks may have higher numbers than
actual, some weeks may be lower than the actual numbers required. VUTEQ requires the
supplier to manage their own inventory ensure sufficient finished goods material is available at
the supplier’s location at all times, based on the planning forecast. Failure to have sufficient
inventory on hand causing expedites or delays to VUTEQ production will result in charge
backs to the supplier for those expenses incurred.
Once a program is scheduled for build out, VUTEQ will issue a letter with the planning forecast
showing the parts affected. The supplier must acknowledge receipt of the letter and
understanding of the requirements for build out. The Material Planners will communicate to the
supplier on a weekly basis of the updated quantities required to satisfy the customer’s
requirements .At the end of the program it is the suppliers responsibility to ensure they are
carrying proper inventory levels to ensure ZERO obsolescence.
VUTEQ may have service parts requirements for the materials or components from the
supplier. These materials or components may be required for a period of 15 years after the
end of the program. The Material Planners will work with the supplier to establish those
requirements and determine how best to supply those parts for the required timeframe.
4.2 Blanket Purchase Orders
Once quotations have been submitted to the purchasing group and agreed upon, that
information will be used to make the Blanket Purchase Order. The blanket order covers the
items quoted and the agreed upon price for as long as VUTEQ has a requirement for the parts
or materials from our customer’s. VUTEQ may terminate a blanket order agreement with
written notice. When blanket orders are changed with additional / deleted items, pricing
changes etc. the same blanket order number will be used but the revision level will change.
Pricing on blanket orders are to remain firm for the length of the program and cost downs are
required on a yearly basis in order to support our Customers. If the supplier has any questions
or concerns regarding the blanket order they should contact the Purchasing.
Page 10 of 16
VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
4.3 Order Release
Releases are generated from our Kanban demand and are transmitted by fax/email or Ultriva
to the supplier based on the agreed upon lead times and order schedule. The Release is a
firm order to the supplier with the quantity, part numbers and expected delivery date. It is the
supplier’s responsibility to acknowledge the order by signing the release and fax/email return
or thru the Ultriva portal. This confirms that the order has been received and that the delivery
date is acceptable. If you are unable to meet the delivery date or the quantity you must contact
the Material Planner and advise them of the situation.
4.5 Backorder Materials
If a shipment will be backordered, it is up to the supplier to contact VUTEQ prior to the shipment.
If the contact has not been made after the receipt of the goods, a copy of the release will be
faxed over showing the backordered items. It is the supplier’s responsibility to update VUTEQ on
the expected delivery date. If there is a potential impact on our production line or our customer’s
production line, expedites may be necessary. VUTEQ will work with the supplier to minimize the
expedite costs but the supplier is ultimately responsible.
4.6 Customs Requirements
All suppliers shipping parts to VUTEQ Canada must submit a NAFTA Certificate showing the
country of origin for the parts supplied on a yearly basis. Any charges incurred by VUTEQ
because of insufficient paperwork will be charged back to the supplier. We encourage all
suppliers to be familiar with the changing regulations for Customs Clearance, participation in
programs such as FAST, CTPAT is highly recommended.
4.7 US Suppliers
To ensure supply of goods across the border in a timely fashion and to ensure that goods are
qualified for NAFTA properly, it is important that suppliers understand their requirements. On a
yearly basis, a competent person who understands NAFTA and customs regulations must
complete a NAFTA Certificate. The Supplier or an outside source such as Willson’s International
may be solicited by VUTEQ on our behalf to provide this information.
Each shipment leaving your facility must have a Commercial Invoice, NAFTA Certificate, Bill of
Lading and Packing slip. If you are unsure of what paperwork is required before shipping, please
contact VUTEQ for direction and we will be able to assist you.

VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
With the ever-changing directives of border security initiatives on the
US and Canada border crossings, additional requirements for
shipping, tracking, verification, identification, etc. may be requested of the Supplier.

5.1 Supplier Selection
One or more of the following criteria approves new Suppliers placement on the ASL:
(RA) Proof of current ISO based registration
(CA) Customer approval, following product testing
(CS) Supplier specified by the Customer
5.2 Supplier Performance

PPM levels should not exceed 15 and On-time delivery is to be 100%.
Suppliers’ monthly performance is rated by the Purchasing and Quality departments utilizing the
following criteria:
Suppliers are issued, on a monthly basis, a Supplier Evaluation Report detailing their
performance for the previous month.
Actions items required are based on the score achieved and follow the chart below. If improvements
are not made, further corrective action is required or re-sourcing of their materials may occur.

VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
Section 6.0 Nonconforming Product and Corrective Action
6.1 Nonconforming Product
The Supplier is expected to establish and maintain procedures to control all Nonconforming
products. These procedures must provide the following:
• Proper Identification of all Nonconforming product
• Immediate Containment of all suspect product
• Prevention of further inadvertent processing
• Disposition authority and timely response
• Re-inspection of repaired or rework product
• Disclosure of potential outflow with issuance of NONC.
If Nonconforming product is discovered at VUTEQ the supplier will be contacted by our Quality or
Purchasing Department. Depending on the impact of the problem, VUTEQ will direct appropriate
containment activities, provisions for replacement stock and an investigation to be initiated
immediately. These initial actions must be completed within 24 hours of the problem notification.
Nonconforming product is the supplier’s responsibility to correct in a timely manner so VUTEQ’s
production is not adversely affected and we do not impact our Customer.
Vuteq Supplier Quality representatives will determine whether sorting activities are required. This
sorting requirement could be required at the supplier location, at Vuteq, or in some cased both.
This determination will be based on the following occurrence criterial.

If the supplier is requested to come onsite at VUTEQ to perform sorts, rework and certify for all
product at Vuteq. The expectation is to receive three clean certified shipments at Vuteq
before the sort/certification is considered complete. The supplier has the following options
to utilize during their containment activities:
i) The Supplier can deploy its own trained team members to Vuteq to support
sort/certify activities.
ii) The Supplier can deploy their DRE, or localized Resident Quality Engineer. iii)
The Supplier has the option of utilizing a Third Party Sorting agency to
perform the work on their behalf. Below is a provided list of Vuteq approved
sorting agencies. It is the Suppliers duty to ensure one of the three provided
agencies are on their internal approved agency list. The approved sorting
agencies for use at Vuteq Canada facilities are:
a. Q2 Management - Website – 1 888 510 0664
b. Escape Proof - Website – 519 807 3650 or 905 815 2452
c. The PIC Group - Website – 1 800 263 3735
Regardless of which sorting option is chosen, Vuteq also requires the completion of an
internal ‘Support Stuff Sorting Log’. This is to be completed on a shift to shift basis and
provided to a Vuteq representative at the end of each shift. These representatives are
also detailed on the Sort Log.
The supplier is responsible for the costs associated and making the sorting arrangements with
the outside sorting company.
VUTEQ’s supplier quality representative will issue a Cost of Poor Quality ( CPQ )
tracking form to the supplier with details of the sorting, rework, product certification and
administration costing for those situations that impact or potentially impact VUTEQ or our
customers. The overhead costs are $350.00 per day. The supplier is required to provide an RMA
# within 48 hours acknowledging these costs and payment is expected within 30 days from receipt.
Due to space restraints within the facility, a quick turnaround of nonconforming product is essential. For this reason. If an RMA is not received within 48 hours parts will be scrapped
and the supplier charged.
Corrective Actions, as described below, are required for all issues having major impact on
VUTEQ’s production and /or ability to provide quality products to our customers.
Page 14 of 16
VSR Rev S Supplier Requirements
On a regular basis, either weekly or at least supplier monthly,
VUTEQ’s Supplier Quality reprehensive will also request an RMA# for
the disposition of supplier’s nonconforming
product accumulated from our production areas that does not immediately impact our ability to
provide quality products. Again, the supplier is required to provide an RMA # within 48 hours
to authorize disposition.
VUTEQ’s Supplier Quality representative may also initiate corrective Actions for these
Supplier accumulated nonconforming products especially to address repeat problems or
worsening defect trends. The supplier is expected to address all defect conditions and implement
continual improvement initiatives for all supplied materials, product and services.
6.2 Corrective Actions
The Supplier is expected to establish and maintain procedures for dealing with corrective actions.
These procedures must provide the following:
• Investigation of the Root Cause of nonconforming product
• Implementation of Corrective Actions to prevent recurrence of problems
• Analysis of processes, concessions, quality records, service reports and customer
complaints to identify & eliminate potential causes of problems
• Application of controls to ensure corrective actions are effective
VUTEQ’s Supplier Quality representative will issue a Supplier Problem Report (SPR) to
communicate and initiate corrective action requirements to the Supplier. The report formats
correspond to our end customers’ requirements and follow their expectations for thorough
investigation, root cause analysis, countermeasure implementation and verification. For suppliers
providing products used by more than one of our customers, there will be different formats of the
Supplier Problem Report issued depending on the end customer program.
The Supplier is responsible to provide their initial response for containment and temporary
countermeasures within 48 hours of the issuance date for all Quality and Delivery problems. The
next three (3) shipments of product will be certified free from the concern identified in the SPR.
These three (3) shipments may need to be inspected at Vuteq as detailed in Section 6.1. If
inspection is required at Vuteq facilities, the sort will not be considered complete until all three (3)
certified shipments are found to be clean and free of defects. This sorting activity would include
either 100% inspection, or adequate sampling of the certified stock. If any defective parts are
found within the certified material, the containment, certification and sorting will be re-initiated.
This would include altering the previously used inspection method. Please note, during inspection
of product during sorting activities, it is the expectation of Vuteq that the entire part is reviewed
for conformance. Not only the highlighted area of concern that resulted in the sorting
requirement.
Certified material will be identified with the Vuteq ‘Supplier Certification Tag’ printed on yellow
paper. This tag shall be applied to each individual at production location area

Supplier PPAP Checklist.xlsx
(left conner of shipping label) but must not cover any detail on the
shipping label to ensure clear identification of all certified product.
The supplier must submit their permanent corrective actions within 14 working days of the original
issuance date. The proposed / implemented C/M’s and targeted completion date(s) are returned to
the originator at VUTEQ along with any supporting documentation for approval. A follow-up
investigation is conducted by VUTEQ to ensure that the corrective actions are in place and
effective prior to closing out the Supplier Problem Report.
The Supplier Problem Reports are communication tools that allow VUTEQ and the supplier to
document and correct issues that may arise during the relationship. Failure to properly respond in
accordance with the timing requirements and ensure corrective actions are effectively
implemented to meet VUTEQ’s criteria, will result in an audit from the Purchasing and Quality
groups and may damage that relationship for further and / or future business.
Suppliers having difficulty in understanding VUTEQ’s requirements or need assistance in
completing any documentation are encouraged to Supplier Quality representative
immediately contact our Purchasing and for their support and clarification.
VUTEQ strongly believes that solid relationships with our suppliers are essential for our success as
well as our customers’ success and developing those partnerships through effective
communication is key.
