Changes shall not be applied to any Product under this Agreement
unless implementation is conducted in accordance with the following
engineering process:
Supplier
Changes : Supplier will
not make any changes to the Products that affect the form, fit or
function, which have been certified by Buyer without Buyer’s
prior written consent. Supplier will notify Buyer (through the
Technical Coordinator) of any engineering change proposed to be
made by Supplier to the Product and will supply Buyer with a
written description of the anticipated effect the engineering
change will have on the Product, including price (savings),
performance, reliability, serviceability, manufacturability and any
cost impact to Buyer as a result of the implementation of the
engineering change. Buyer has the right to approve or disapprove of
such engineering change, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Buyer may elect to evaluate and test the prototype, parts
and/or designs specified as part of the proposed change and
Supplier shall provide such parts to Buyer at no charge for such
evaluation and testing. Buyer (through the Technical Coordinator)
shall approve or disapprove Supplier proposed changes within
[**] , unless otherwise agreed to by both parties, of
receipt of a written request, except for changes required to
satisfy governmental standards or safety for which Buyer shall
respond within [**] , unless extended by mutual consent.
Failure to respond shall be deemed to be Buyer’s acceptance
of such proposed change. If such change affects price, the Buyer
Business Coordinator must also provide approval. If Buyer approves
the engineering change, the product specification and unit pricing
will be amended as required. Buyer will not unreasonably refuse to
approve Supplier’s engineering changes to the Product. In the
event that Supplier makes such changes to form, fit or function,
that affect the Product without Buyer’s consent, at
Buyer’s discretion Supplier will either: (i) [**]
mutually agreed upon by Supplier and Buyer, [**] that are
associated with such Products’ [**] the price of the
Products.
Buyer
Changes : Buyer may
request in writing (through the Technical Coordinator) that
Supplier incorporate an engineering change into the Product. Such
request will include a description of the proposed change
sufficient to permit Supplier to evaluate its feasibility. Within
[**] of such request (or extended by mutual consent),
Supplier will advise Buyer of the conditions under which it would
make the engineering change. Supplier’s evaluation will be in
writing and will state the increase or decrease price adjustment
(if any) and the effect on the performance, reliability, safety,
appearance, dimensions, tolerances, manufacturability and
serviceability of the Product. Buyer’s Technical Coordinator
shall approve or disapprove the engineering change based on
Supplier’s written evaluation. If such change affects price,
the Buyer’s Business Coordinator must provide approval prior
to implementation. If Buyer approves the engineering change, the
product specification and unit pricing will be amended as required.
Supplier will not unreasonably refuse to incorporate Buyer’s
engineering changes into the Product.
