Q

Sourcing – S3.PM.04.1 NBU CHECK

A

achieving consistent high-quality components and assemblies from suppliers at competitive costs, which requires complete specifications and controls at the suppliers. Failure to achieve Design for Manufacturability and Design for Sourcing jeopardizes reliability because nonconforming components and assemblies, if undetected, can cause field failures. In recent years, Design for Manufacturability and Design for Sourcing have been identified as the largest technical challenges in NPD. Technical management of complex supply chain is extremely important to consistently receive high quality components and assemblies, and requires complete specifications, supplier capability validation and supplier control plans.
