5 Definitions
Seller: means the vendor/supplier or distributor performing the work/supplying materials, parts assemblies, subassemblies, and systems or services pursuant to the purchase order.
Buyer: means Prime Power Inc. (subsequently referred to as P2), issuing the purchase order (physically or electronically) which invokes this document.
FOD: Foreign Object Debris
ESD: Electrostatic Discharge
MSL: Moisture Sensitivity Level. For all non-hermetic SMD packages subject to bulk solder reflow processes during PCB assembly, including plastic encapsulated or moisture permeable packages, a MSL number should be assigned indicating the part’s storage needs. Reference J-STD-020 and J-STD-033.
6 General Requirements
The general requirements described in this section apply to Sellers for all Purchase Orders.
6.1 Conflicting or Unclear Requirements
The supplier shall notify P2 buyer to resolve any unclear or conflicting requirement(s) in P2 Drawings, design data (i.e. Gerber or solid works data), or purchase order. This requirement includes any process incompatibility with specified design criteria. Supplier shall not proceed until clarification or resolution is obtained from P2.
Verification of revision status. For purchased product that must meet P2 specification, drawing, process requirement or verification instructions, the supplier shall verify the P2 specification or drawing revision matches the revision indicated in the PO
6.2 Change Notification Policy – Manufacturer Specified Product
When P2 procures from manufacturer with design authority (i.e. P2 procures to manufacturer’s data sheet (specification) or procures “off the shelf” standard product), the manufacturer shall notify P2 of design, process, material, supplier, or manufacturing facility changes that may affect “form, fit, function” or compatibility with next level processing including industry recognized soldering or cleaning processes.
6.3 No Change Policy – Prime Power Specified Product
For purchased items that must conform to P2 design data, (i.e. drawing, SCD, specification, Gerber or solid works data), including product manufactured from supplier assembly documentation developed from P2 design data; no change to design, processes or material shall be implemented by the supplier without written approval From Prime Power Inc.
6.4 Counterfeit Parts Prevention
All suppliers or distributors shall guard against the use of and delivery of “counterfeit” parts or components to P2. The supplier shall ensure that only new materials are used in products ultimately delivered to Prime Power Inc.
A “counterfeit” part is defined as: A suspect part or material that is found to be a copy or substitute without legal right or authority to do so or one whose material, performance, or characteristic are knowingly misrepresented by a supplier in the supply chain. Parts which have been refinished, up-screened or up-rated and have been identified as such are not considered counterfeit.
For product to be delivered to P2, the supplier shall only use components, parts and material directly from the Original Component Manufacturer (OCM) or a Franchised Distributor of the OCM. Only the part manufacturer described in the part data sheet or specification shall be selected for delivery to P2. Any departure from the manufacturer called out in the part documentation shall require written approval from P2 prior to delivery.
In addition to certifying product delivered complies with purchasing order or agreements, a certificate of conformance establishing Traceability to the OCM or its Franchised Distributor shall accompany the shipment of electronic parts and assemblies with electronic parts to P2.
Electronic parts may not be purchased from Brokers (non-OCM or a non-Franchised Distributor of the OCM) without written consent from P2. Written consent will require testing verification that the non-OCM part proposed is equivalent to the part called out by the part data sheet or specification.
6.5 Supplier Quality System
The supplier’s quality system shall be appropriate to achieve specified product quality requirements as well as requirements not stated by P2 but necessary for intended use of the supplied product, where known. The supplier shall maintain a quality system that performs sufficient inspection and tests; as well as identify, control and prevent unintended use of nonconforming product ensuring product conforms to applicable drawings and specifications. Prime Power Inc. reserves the right to review supplier’s quality system by on-site surveillance.
6.6 Supplier Personnel Qualification
Qualification and training level of supplier personnel shall be appropriate to achieve product quality requirements as specified as well as non-stated requirements necessary for intended use of product. If applicable, specific personnel qualification requirements will be included in the purchase order or sub-contract.

A certificate of conformance (C of C) must be delivered with each shipment. The C of C shall state the parts or material delivered comply with the requirements contained in the following, as applicable:
- Purchase order,
- Specification,
- Drawing,
- Supplier Data Sheet as mutually agreed between the supplier and
The C of C must also certify the components, parts or material delivered are in fact from the Original Component Manufacturer (OCM) or the OCM’s Franchised Distributor identifying the Original Manufacturer as the source of the component, parts or material. When an OCM’s Franchised Distributor supplies the parts to P2, the Franchised Distributor’s C of C must also state the parts delivered are traceable to the Original Manufacturer. The C of C must be signed by someone, (typically in the supplier’s Quality Assurance department or someone designated by the supplier’s organization), authorized to certify compliance.
6.8 Hazardous Material
Components, parts and material delivered to P2 shall be free of compounds containing mercury, beryllium, cadmium, and chromium. The materials listed in Table A-1 of Appendix A, are banned from use in product delivered to P2. The materials listed in Table A-2 of Appendix A, are restricted and shall be disclosed to P2 prior to actual delivery. (See Appendix A)
6.9 Nonconformance Notification
The Seller shall notify the Buyer if there may be a nonconformance to form, fit, function, or issue with usability or reliability problem with product or material that has already been delivered. Seller shall not knowingly ship non- conforming material or product without written authorization from P2.
6.10 Failure Analysis and Corrective Action Requirement
The Seller agrees to conduct failure analysis, investigation of root cause and corrective action for parts, materials or assemblies delivered that have failed during P2 testing or failed at P2’s customer or field use. Seller shall provide timely replies to P2 Non-conforming Material Report (NCMR), Corrective Action Request (CAR), or Supplier or Outside Lab Failure Analysis Request (SOLFAR). Non-response or late responses will adversely affect the suppliers rating and may limit approval status for future business with Prime Power Inc.
6.11 Right of Access – Surveillance
The Buyer, customer, and regulatory agencies shall have the right of entry to Seller premises and access to applicable processes and areas of all facilities at any level of the supply chain to perform assessments necessary to ensure conformance to the requirements stated herein.
