Electronic Supply Chain Solution's involvement with the CACP, QLF, and SAE G-19 Counterfeit Committee, has provided the quality lessons learned that corporate mandates to adopt a policy of Vendor Reduction must evolve. Now more than ever the need to mitigate risks coming from independent brokers is paramount to a company's supply chain.This age old policy is being revisited by many.Those who've dieted understand that "loss of fat does not make you stronger."
The reduction of suppliers who do not meet minimum standards after a designated time line should continue. However, strength of the supply chain is achieved by maintaining an Approved Vendor List that not only meets statandard cost objectives and on-time deliveries, but quality as well.
The aerospace community has found that mandating suppliers to an AS9120 quality certification may insure a quality product. Suppliers must demonstrate that they are taking the same steps with their AVL and through education, making sure all employees understand and demand the flow down requirements needed to meet a company's objectives.
A new standard AS5553 shall soon apply to those in the military and aerospace community. Building a powerful AVL shall provide your company with the tools needed to meet the standard as well.
