Supplier Development
Millitech is committed to working with our suppliers to ensure quality products are delivered on time. We bring suppliers on board in stages as we work through the various components of the relationship. They are described as:
(CA) Conditionally Approved Supplier
The following are requirements of a conditionally approved supplier:
- New Supplier Form
- W9 Form
- Approval from Procurement and Quality
- Signed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
(QS) Qualified Supplier
The Quality Assurance Department will initiate a Supplier Evaluation. Then a qualification plan will be drafted by Quality with input from the Procurement and Engineering Departments. Once all requirements of the plan are met, the supplier will be considered "qualified" and will be eligible to participate in the Certified Supplier Program.
(CS) Certified Supplier
Our Qualified Suppliers are invited to partner with us in a Certified Supplier Program. To become eligible as a Certified Supplier you must first have 100% acceptance on 25 consecutive lots delivered on time, to be reviewed by the Procurement and Quality Assurance Departments.
Once eligibility is achieved, our continued expectations include:
- Quality of product and documentation maintained at 98%
- On-time delivery shall be maintained at 95% (+10/-0 days)
- Suppliers shall be proactive in notifying Procurement, in advance of due date, of problems or issues that may affect delivery or quality performance.
- Hold all quotes valid for a minimum of 90 days unless otherwise stated on the RFQ. Any unexpected increases due to material or availability must be communicated to Millitech in writing.
- Ship to stock status.
Supplier Diversity Program
Millitech works with a wide variety of suppliers to support the requirements of our customers. We have created the Subcontractor Representation Form to identify those suppliers that are categorized under the Small Business Act. We urge all small businesses to visit the Small Business Administration (SBA) web site for more information on SBA programs and contracting assistance for Woman Owned Small Businesses (WOSB), Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDB), Veteran Owned Small Businesses (VOSB), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SD/VOSB), and businesses in Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZones).
If your business is categorized under the SBA, please complete the Subcontractor Representation Form and fax it to Richard Shepard, Supply Chain Manager, 866-556-8493.
