Title: Supplier Verification of Purchased Product SVPP
1Supplier Verification of Purchased Product (SVPP)
2Why component Approval?
- To prevent poor quality components being
integrated into the plant. - To ensure that expected quality levels are known
and understood by the supplier. - To guarantee that processes are set-up
effectively and to gain confidence in the
controls which are put in place. - This is a preventative process which ensures
that components are fit for the applications we
are using them for and that the supplier is
capable of producing the required level of
quality.
3The SVPP process
- This is a new process which will be used by IR
Unicov and all Thermo King plants to approve
supplier components for use in Production. - This process is applicable to any supplier of
components to IR Unicov production facility
regardless if they are custom fabricated parts or
off-the-shelf items. - Supplier ownership of the conformity and quality
to IR standards is vital to our efforts in
building top quality Industrial and climate
control equipment.
4When will this process be used?
- When a new component is being integrated into the
plant.(Each facility will have to approve the new
component). - When an existing component is going to be
manufactured by a new supplier. - When the existing supplier has changed any
process significantly (e.g. part to be
manufactured in a new facility, on a new machine,
a new sub-supplier etc.). - A new tool or mould is used.
- When a component has had a revision change.
5Sub-Suppliers
- The Supplier is responsible for the quality of
parts manufactured/assembled specifically for
IRCR, Thermo King AND for those
components/sub-components provided by
sub-suppliers in any finished assembly. - It is IRCR expectation that Suppliers shall
assume all responsibility and accountability of
managing their sub-suppliers for quality,
delivery and performance in meeting IRCRs
specified requirements. - The Supplier shall obtain any necessary
documentation from their sub-supplier that is
required to complete the SVPP Report. - SVPP reports are to be sent by the Supplier only,
not by the sub-supplier.
6Main Requirements
- All new components will require the following.
- IRCR Part submission warrant.
- A Master Sample for the plants using the
component. - Dimensional Report
- Any material performance and durability tests as
required by the IR spec. - Control Plan.(For basic items such as spacers,
foam blocks and other other non precision items
overall control plan will suffice) - In addition to the above critical components we
may require the following for precision items - Process Capability Study
- Appearance Report.
- FMEA
- Process Flow Diagram.
- Supplier Design Records.
7Part submission Warrant
This document must be supplied by all suppliers
irrespective of their own approval systems.
8Dimensional Report
Characteristic specifications and tolerances from
drawing or specifications.
1 samples must be submitted for Industrial
Solution
5 samples must be submitted for TK project
Note Samples that do not meet the requirements
will have to be resubmitted.
9Other documentation
- AIAG documentation is to be used as a guideline
for control plans, FMEAs etc.. - These can be easily sourced on www.aiag.org.
- In the event that supplier may have existing
formats of documentation which cover this then
they may use this if they convey sufficiently the
requirements for approval of the part.
10Process consideration
- Supplier must possess measurement equipment to
support the measurement of key component
characteristics. - Some suppliers have been informed of this new
process by letter. - Any non-conformances to the specifications must
be corrected prior to shipment unless prior
approval to ship (Material Deviation
Authorization (Concession)) has been received
from the plant Buyer/Planner, ECN Controller or
Plant Quality. - Requests to change a drawing must be made in
advance of a submittal in writing.
11Where to get this supplier information?
- All information and reports are on www.IRCR.cz
- This also includes a detailed work instruction
for suppliers which describes how to prepare
documentation and parts for approval. - Letters of introduction have already been sent
out to some suppliers. This letter can also be
seen on the IRCR Internet pages.
12Controls and measures on the process
- New part numbers supplied which are not
approved. Comparing receipts against part
numbers on the lotus notes database (SVPP data
base of documentation). - Parts supplied from unapproved sources.
- Parts awaiting full approval.
