Introduction
This KSS Standard outlines requirements for how to control potential risks related to
product and process through the identification and management of special product
and process characteristics (named Critical Characteristics and Significant
Characteristics).
Purpose
The purpose of this standard is to facilitate and to harmonize the use of special
characteristics within drawings and other documentation throughout the KSS group.
It explains the management and handling of special characteristics to fulfill
functional and regulatory requirements.
Scope
All KSS sites, organizations, and suppliers must adhere to this standard.
Responsibility
The Engineering Manager or Director of each KSS engineering department is
responsible to ensure that the CC/SC standard is followed, monitored and
observed during development.
The Product Engineer is responsible to define the CC/SC for all engineering
documentation associated with development for the assigned programs.
The Quality Manager/ Director is responsible to ensure that requirements defined in
this standard are implemented.
The Procurement Director and Director of Supplier Quality are responsible to
communicate this standard and enforce compliance at the supplier level.
Definitions / Abbreviations
A characteristic is a dimension or a physical, chemical, electrical, mechanical or
visual property. A characteristic must be measurable, either directly or indirectly,
either variable or attribute.
Attribute characteristics are qualitative data that is measured or checked and
results in conformance or non-conformance, pass or fail.

CC/SC List
Each DFMEA/PFMEA requires a CC/SC list as a controlled document (see
appendix) and is to be understood as a subset of the DFMEA.
The purpose of the CC/SC list is to monitor and assure that all special
characteristics are effectively controlled and documented during development and
ongoing production. It is a mandatory document and shall be used for each product.

5.4.1 All CC/SC lists shall be written in English. Dual language (local language and
English) can be applied as applicable.
5.4.2 Distribution of the complete CC/SC list data outside of KSS (customer or supplier)
is prohibited, as well as D- and PFMEA, but can be presented upon request. The
supplier shall be provided with the CC/SC list for his component.
5.5
CC/SCs must be marked on the drawing according to the global KSS drafting
standard.
