Micro-Coax Configuration Control Policy
1.0
Micro-Coax (MC) Standard:
1.1.
Micro-Coax, Inc. will not make any changes that cause an exception to be taken
to a customer drawing without customer acknowledgement.
1.2.
Micro-Coax, Inc. maintains the right to make design and/or changes to components
used in end-item assembly as long as form, fit or function of the end item
assembly is not impacted.
2.0
Additional Configuration Control Requirements (Beyond MC Standard):
2.1
If additional configuration control of customer product is required beyond MC's
standard, this should be indicated at the time of quote. Additional charges may apply
depending on the required level of control.
2.2
If additional configuration control beyond that provided by MC's standard is not
invoked until time of order (ex. via quality clause), additional charges not
reflected on the original quote may apply.
2.3
If a higher level of configuration control is agreed upon, Micro-Coax will
notify and/or seek customer approval for any applicable changes impacting open
orders.
3.0
Limitations to Configuration Control:
3.1
Only customized items can be configuration controlled. Micro-Coax business systems cannot
support configuration control of the following items and conditions:
3.1.1
Standard product and web-store purchases.
(Only customer-specific end items can be configuration controlled.)
3.1.2
Manufacturing equipment and suppliers.
(Micro-Coax has internal qualification procedures for new equipment and
suppliers to ensure interchangeability.)
3.1.3
Tooling (unless specifically controlled in a Micro-Coax Process Identification
Document (PID)).
3.1.4
Specific
Operators/Personnel.
3.2 When additional Configuration Control is
invoked and unless otherwise agreed upon explicitly
in contract, Customer Configuration
Control will be limited only to changes to the
end item being procured by the customer. Changes to
lower level components (ex. tolerance
changes) which do not impact the end item’s form,
fit, function or reliability can be made by
Micro-Coax without customer notification.
