NOTE:

THE TS-16949 SELF SURVEY (L-PUR-F31), AND THE QSA (L-PURF15) WILL BE USED TO MONITOR THE QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND HELP DETERMINE THE STRENGTHS AND DEVELOPMENT NEEDS OF OUR SUBCONTRACTORS. THE QSA WILL BE CONDUCTED ONCE IN A FIVE YEAR PERIOD FOR SUPPLIERS CERTIFIED TO TS-16494 OR ISO 9000/2000.

1.2

All current suppliers that do not have certification to TS-16949 or ISO9001/2000, will be reviewed by the Supplier Development Engineer at a minimum of once a year using the Supplier Quality System Assessment (LPUR-F15). Paragraphs 1.3 through 1.7 are the action plan to be followed for the suppliers who are not certified. The SDE shall conduct the assessment at the time Hi-Stat product is being produced, and shall be directed to the Hi-Stat processes. The SDE will compile the assessment report. The report shall contain as much hard copy evidence for team review. The SDE completes a Supplier Selection Approval form (LQCP-F41) noting the suppliers strengths, weaknesses (development needs), and recommendations. The SDE e-mails a meeting notice with the assessment attached to the crossfunctional team. (QE, PE, PA, DO) The cross-functional team shall discuss the scoring, extent of development, needed, and make one of the following decisions and complete the necessary actions. A) Certify Supplier The supplier must score the following and have no development needs within their Hi-Stat related processes in order to become Hi-Stat certified. 95% - 100% Preferred Business Candidate 80% - 94% Acceptable Business Candidate The Supplier Selection Approval form (L-QCP-F41) will be signed by the cross-functional team as Approved A certificate will be signed by each of the cross-functional team members and presented to the supplier, approving them and their processes for Hi-Stat use.

Development may be conducted by the SDE or may require the assistance of the Hi-Stat TQM team. This shall be determined when considering the extent of development needed and resources available to complete. The Supplier Selection Approval form (L-QCP-F41) will be signed by the cross-functional team as Denied. The suppliers status on the ASL will be Conditional until development is complete. Once the development is complete the SDE will begin the process with an assessment, which will then have cross-functional team review and sign-off.

C)

Re-Source Suppliers scoring in the following ranges will be placed on a re-source schedule immediately. The progress towards re-sourcing will be tracked by the SDE through the Suppliers Top 10 list. 70% 79% Potential Business Candidate (Due to extensive Development) 69% and below Not Viable For Business (No systems in place) The Supplier Selection Approval form (L-QCP-F41) shall be signed by the cross-functional team as Denied.

PURPOSE:

To define Hi-Stat's Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) for Suppliers.

SCOPE:

This procedure is applicable to all suppliers of materials, components and/or processes used in the manufacture of Hi-Stat's products.

DEFINITIONS:

PPAP - Production Part Approval Process

PROCEDURE: RASI: Responsible: Accountable: Support: Inform: Purchasing Agent Director Materials & Logistics Management Supplier Development Engineer Quality or APQP Engineer

1.

GENERAL 1.1 The PPAP is used to determine if all Hi-Stat drawings and/or specifications are properly understood by the Supplier; and that the process has the potential to produce product meeting these requirements during an actual production run at the quoted production rate.

2.

DEFINITION 2.1 Production parts are manufactured at the production site using the production tooling, gauging, process, materials, operators, environment, and process settings, e.g., feeds/speeds/cycle times/pressures/temperatures.

2.2

Parts for PPAP must be taken from a significant production run. This run would typically be from one hour to one shifts production. Parts from each position of a multiple cavity die, mold, tool or pattern are to be measured and representative parts tested. Production part review and approval are required for each part prior to the first production shipment.

MASTER SAMPLES RETENTION 6.1 Master samples are to be retained for the same period as the production part approval records or until a new master sample is produced for the same part number for the purpose of Hi-Stat's approval. Master samples are to be identified as such and are to show Hi-Stat's approval date.

7.

PARTS SUBMISSION STATUS 7.1 Suppliers will be notified by Hi-Stat's Supplier Development Engineer as to the disposition of the submission. The appropriate Hi-Stat Quality Engineer is responsible for disposition. If the Part Submission Warrant is rejected, the Quality Engineer must indicate the reason for rejection. After sample approval, suppliers are responsible for assuring that future production continues to meet all of Hi-Stat's requirements.

1.

MATERIAL CERTIFICATION 1.1 When a Material Certification is required, a sample must be obtained from each shipment of raw material received, and used for analyzing the property composition of the material. Material certifications must be identify with a lot number and include the actual readings of the properties (chemical composition, physical properties, hardness, etc.) of the raw material. A copy of the Material Certification from the raw material supplier is sufficient. Material Certification requirements are determined by the Product Engineer and designated on the drawing with the appropriate symbol. If the certification is required to be sent with each shipment, it may be stated on the Purchase Order or communicated at design review. Material Certifications are required to be on file at the Supplier's location at all times and subject to review or recall (in the form of a copy) as needed or demanded by Hi-Stat or its Customers. When Material Certifications are requested, a copy of the most recent lot processed is required. Shipments received without the required material certification are considered a non-conformance requiring a MDR be processed.

PURPOSE:

To define what Hi-Stat considers to be non-conforming material and the method to be used to disposition the non-conforming material.

SCOPE:

This procedure is applicable to all Suppliers of materials, components, services and/or processes used in the manufacture of Hi-Stat's products.

DEFINITIONS:

SREA Supplier Request for Engineering Approval SDE Supplier Development Engineer

PROCEDURE: RASI: Responsible: Supplier Development Engineer, Quality Engineer Accountable: Customer Reliability / Quality Systems Manager, Sustaining Business Unit Manager Support: Purchasing Agents Inform: Director of Operations & Order Fulfillment, Director Materials & Logistics Management.

1.

GENERAL 1.1 Hi-Stat defines non-conforming material as the following: a. b. c. d. e. f. g. 1.2 Parts that are not to drawing specifications (physical, visual, or dimensional). Mixed parts. Contamination (i.e. plastic runners, metal blanks, cleanliness, etc.). Lack of required Quality Control Documentation. Damaged parts. Parts that are not delivered on time. Not meeting purchase order requirements.

If a Supplier has a known non-conformance in a lot that is ready for shipment to Hi-Stat, they must receive documented approval from Hi-Stat's Purchasing Department prior to shipment. The Supplier must obtain from Hi-Stat or from the Hi-Stat web site a "Supplier Request for Engineering Approval" form (See SEC. 15.0 FORMS). This form must be completed and returned to Hi-Stat for disposition. An approved SREA will serve as a record of Hi-Stat's authorization for the Supplier to ship the specified nonconforming lot or to implement the requested change(s).

1.3

If a minor non-conformance is found at Hi-Stat and the lot could be used "AS IS," a small sample will be returned with a copy of Hi-Stat's "Material Discrepancy Report" (MDR) or Supplier Concern form to the Supplier (See SEC. 15.0 FORMS). This is to prompt the Supplier's awareness of the non-conformance in order for them to take appropriate action. A minor non-conformance is defined as a non-conformance that did not increase the percentage of line scrap, cause un-necessary rework, and/or affect a pass through characteristic. Suppliers ratings are affected even though its a minor non-conformance. If the non-conforming lot is discovered by Hi-Stats Metrology Lab and is determined to be not useable, it will be necessary for the Supplier to take appropriate corrective action. Hi-Stat, in conjunction with the Supplier, will choose one of the following actions to address the problem: a. b. c. d. The Supplier can sort/rework the lot at Hi-Stat. The Supplier may have the lot returned at Supplier cost, if replacement stock is available. The Supplier may choose to contact and hire at their cost, a sorting firm to sort/rework the lot at Hi-Stat. (See approved sources below) The Supplier may choose to have Hi-Stat scrap the lot at Supplier cost.

1.4

Approved Sorting Firm: Spherion, 2282 Village Mall Drive Suite #2, Mansfeild, OH 44906 Phone 419-747-7479, Fax 419-747-3874. Contact person will be Beth Delaney

1.5

If the non-conforming lot is found on Hi-Stats production line (See Note 1 below) and is determined to be unusable (See Note 2 below), the Supplier will have three possible options. Those options (listed in order of Hi-Stats preference) are: 1. 2. 3. Expedite certified product to Hi-Stat. Provide qualified personnel to sort at Hi-Stat. Supplier compensates Hi-Stat to sort. This is not an elective for the supplier. This is to keep production flowing until other arrangements are made.

Note 1: All time accumulated by Hi-Stat per this procedure will be documented on Form L-PUR-F30, Supplier Sort Charges (See SEC. 15.0, FORMS).

Note 2: If there are no other acceptable lots available in Hi-Stats inventory, the Supplier will be required to act immediately in order to allow Hi-Stat to maintain production requirements and minimize the costs associated with non-conforming product for both parties. 1.6 In order to prevent the problem from recurring, Hi-Stat's Supplier Development Engineer will send the Supplier a "Supplier Corrective Action Report" (SCAR). This form (See SEC. 15.0, FORMS) will be attached to a copy of the "MDR", which is required to be completed by the Supplier and returned to Hi-Stat's Supplier Development Engineer within 10 working days of the origination date. Initial response must be given within 24 hours. This will serve as a written record to Hi-Stat showing how the Supplier corrected the problem to prevent future recurrences. Consequences for failure to respond see section 7.0 Maintaining Approved Status. NOTE: THE FOLLOWING IS WHEN A SCAR SHALL BE ISSUED, BUT NOT LIMITED TO: A) B) C) D) E) If the disposition of the MDR creates a line shutdown. If the disposition of the MDR creates an increase in the percentage of line scrap. If there is an addition of rework or a secondary operation in order to use the components. If the product is to be sorted prior to use. Supplier Concerns have previously been issued within the last 30 days for this non-conformance.

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING IS WHEN A QUALITY OF SERVICE CHARGE SHALL BE APPLIED TO A MDR, BUT NOT LIMITED TO: A) B) 1.7 Anytime the Quality Engineer has issued a SCAR. Anytime the on time delivery date is not met.

In the event of a product problem discovered at Hi-Stat, the Supplier will be responsible for taking the appropriate immediate containment action on their current inventory to prevent further shipments of non-conforming product. Maintaining containment of in transit shipments will be the responsibility of the supplier. Containment action should be reported to Hi-Stat within 24 hours. All shipments to Hi-Stat until corrective action is obtained must be 100% sorted and labeled as certified product.

RECOVERY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH UNACCEPTABLE QUALITY 2.1 Hi-Stats Suppliers are expected to be responsible for costs incurred by Hi-Stat as a result of supplier quality related issues. These costs include: added production costs (i.e., sorting, rework, scrap, etc.) and freight costs. The recovery process for the incurred costs will be through the issuance of debits. Hi-Stats intent is to be fair in the settlement of costs associated with supplier quality problems. The assessment of accountability and evaluation of costs will be based on justifiable reasoning in order to establish mutual consideration. Any questions and/or concerns related to the associated costs should be directed to the appropriate Purchasing Agent or the Director Materials & Logistics Management.

1.0

GENERAL 1.1 A comprehensive continual improvement philosophy shall be fully implemented throughout the Supplier's organization. Hi-Stat Suppliers shall continually improve in quality, service, and price. This requirement does not replace the need for innovative improvements. Action plans for continual improvement must be developed for processes important to Hi-Stat once those processes have demonstrated stability and acceptable capability. For product characteristics and process parameters that can be evaluated using variables data, continual improvement means optimizing to a target or mean value and reducing variation around that value. Hi-Stat Suppliers should extend the continual improvement philosophy to all of their sub-contractors.

PURPOSE: SCOPE:

To define the application of Q.C. Specification QO1-0001 noted on Hi-Stat drawings. Use of this procedure applies to Suppliers and all internal Hi-Stat functions verifying conformance of component parts, materials or processes to drawing specifications. Cpk: Capability Index for a stable process.

DEFINITIONS: PROCEDURE: RASI:

Responsible: Accountable: Support: Inform:

Project Engineer Business Unit Manager Purchasing Agent Buyer/Supplier Quality Agent

Any parameter or dimension not meeting specified requirements on the drawing is considered a non-conformance. Parameters and/or dimensions (characteristics) shown on Hi-Stat drawings are classified according to their seriousness by application of the appropriate Cpk level requirement inside the flag symbol. Suppliers of materials, components and/or processes are required to produce components which are centered about the target or nominal value. Documentation (ie: control charts, Cpk, etc.) must be maintained by the supplier demonstrating statistical control of the process for the appropriate Cpk level noted on Hi-Stat's drawing.

1.

CRITICAL CHARACTERISTICS a. Critical characteristics are designated on Hi-Stat drawings by the flag symbol ), which will be located next to the dimension with the requirement. Inside this ( symbol will be the Cpk level requirement for that dimension. The Supplier's manufacturing process is required to produce a normal curve per the designation equal to a minimum of +/- 4 sigma (8 standard deviations) within specification which is equal to a 1.33 Cpk, or a normal curve of +/- 3 sigma within specification, which is equal to a 1.00 Cpk. Appropriate control charts (Xbar-R) must be used with a minimum of 100 samples to prove stability.

NOTE: Cpk provides a combined measure of the amount of part-to-part variability within a process and the relationship of process average to the specification limits. A Cpk value is calculated when variable data are used to evaluate product quality. The process must be stable or in "statistical control" before a valid Cpk value can be determined. Cpk = distance from process average to nearest spec limit 3 (process standard deviation) The higher the Cpk value the more capable a process is to repeatedly produce parts that are within specifications. b. A critical characteristic is one that judgement and experience indicate can affect: - safe vehicle/product function. - product life. - meeting customer specifications. - assembly. - use requiring additional operations to make the part operational or functional. - compliance with government regulations.

2.

MARKED CHARACTERISTICS a. Marked characteristics are designated on Hi-Stat drawings by the flag symbol ( ) with the letter M inside, this symbol will be located next to the dimension with the requirement. All marked characteristics are declared as Zero Defects The Supplier must use "Zero Defects" sampling methods for marked characteristics.

b.

Marked characteristics on Hi-Stat drawings are designated as requiring ongoing process monitoring after an approved First Piece Dimensional Layout. Hi-Stat's Control Plan and/or Work Instruction to the Supplier will dictate the ongoing process control requirements for marked characteristics.

3.

UNMARKED CHARACTERISTICS a. b. All unmarked characteristics are declared as Zero Defects The Supplier must use "Zero Defects" sampling methods for unmarked characteristics. Unmarked characteristics on Hi-Stat drawings are not designated as requiring ongoing process monitoring after an approved First Piece Dimensional Layout

PASS THROUGH CHARACTERISTICS 4.1 Pass through characteristics are those that will have potential fit and/or functional issues that will not be detected within the customers manufacturing process. Proper fit assures the mating part(s) will assemble properly. Functionality assures the part(s) are 100% functional over the entire operating range.

4.2

Pre-Production a. Pass through characteristics will be developed from the customers top level print and documented during the design review process. This will be done by the APQP or Quality Engineer. The supplier shall submit evidence of an acceptable capability process for each pass through characteristic identified at the time of PPAP. Failure to do so or submitting an unacceptable Cpk level will result in rejection of the PPAP. The supplier will be required to add the pass through characteristics to their PFMEA and control plan. 100% in-process inspection (go/no go gages, vision system, etc.) prior to shipping may be required for any process that is not controlled and stable. The supplier is required to submit data with every shipment to comply with HiStats Dock-to-Point-of-Use program. This data will be monitored by Hi-Stats Metrology Lab and any non-conformances will result in the processing of a Material Discrepancy Report. The supplier will be notified by Hi-Stats Supplier Quality Agent of the nonconformance and a Supplier Corrective Action will be issued.

5.

POST PPAP a. Supplier will be required to submit data as required by the APQP Engineer. This data may be reviewed by Hi-Stats Metrology Lab or the APQP Engineer, and any non-conformance will result in a material discrepancy report being filed. Supplier Corrective Action will be issued by the Supplier Quality Agent. The supplier will then have to submit data with every shipment until process stability is regained and corrective action is closed.

LOT SAMPLING USED AT HI-STAT'S RECEIVING INSPECTION DEPARTMENT All Hi-Stat Customers expect their product to be delivered with zero defects. Conformance to drawing specifications will be evaluated by Hi-Stat using the following plan and procedures. a. In support of this Customer expectation, Hi-Stat's Metrology Lab utilizes the following sample size: Diamond Symbol: n=30 Square Symbol: n=30 Circle Symbol: n=30 No Symbol: n=10 b. Selection of the sample from the lot received from the Supplier must be a random selection where each part in the shipment has equal opportunity in being selected. The acceptance number in all cases is zero. The Metrologist only accepts the shipment if zero non-conformances are found in the sample. Sample sizes for variables/attribute data collected by Hi-Stat's Metrology Lab may be reduced to 10 parts per shipment after 5 consecutive manufacturing production lots have been received with no non-conformances found and all stated Cpk requirements on the drawing (evaluated as Ppk) were met or exceeded. This reduced sampling does not require the Supplier to have an "Approved" rating or be qualified for "Dock to Point of Use" status.

PURPOSE:

To define the "Dock to Point of Use" procedure and its application.

SCOPE:

This procedure is applicable to Suppliers of materials, processes, and components and Hi-Stat's Metrology Lab Process.

DEFINITION:

PPAP - Production Part Approval Process DPU Dock to Point of Use

PROCEDURE: RASI: Responsible; Accountable: Support: Inform: Buyer/Supplier Quality Agent Strategic Supply Chain Manager Purchasing Agent Director of Operations

Hi-Stat's goal in developing its Suppliers is for every Supplier with an "Approved" status to also meet the "Dock to Point of Use" requirements for each part number they supply. Dock to Point of Use (DPU) is a status that is applied on a per part basis that allows HiStat's Metrology Department to only verify the certification and data provided by the supplier for the shipment while sending the components to stock (Dock to Point of Use). Variables/attribute data collection is not required by Hi-Stat's Metrology Department with this status. 1. DPU status for each part number is earned by achieving the following items: a. "Approved" Supplier status. b. Maintaining "Approved" Supplier status. c. Approved PPAP (where required) on file for the part number. NOTE: See SEC. 3.0 (Quality System Expectations) and SEC. 8.0 (Production Part Approval Process) that define PPAP requirements.

d. Required inspection data as defined on the Work Instruction for 5 shipments or until sufficient evidence of a stable process can be proven. Then required data / certification is received from the Supplier or evidence that the Supplier is retaining required inspection data for the part number. e. Five (5) consecutive shipments received for the part number without any Supplier fault non-conformances found during inspection and/or during the assembly process. f. The Metrology Lab Supervisor will maintain a list for the Receiving Dock of all suppliers that DO NOT have DPU Status 2. The DPU status for a part number is removed if any items in paragraph 1 above are not met and requires returning to full inspection as described in the work instruction for that part number. 3. If DPU status for a part number is lost, it can be obtained again by achieving the items outlined in paragraph 1 above. 4. If a part number loses Dock to Point of Use status (for quality related issues only) more than two (2) times within a 12 month period, it will require a new PPAP submission from the Supplier to regain the DPU status. Once the new PPAP is approved, the DPU status can once again be obtained providing all requirements in paragraph 1 have been met. 5. Hi-Stat's Metrology personnel are required to accurately record Supplier performance to assure Dock to Point of Use requirements are met and utilized as much as possible. 6. Hi-Stats Metrology Lab personnel are required to enter supplier data (until full DPU status is obtained) into the infinity system and notify the Buyer/Supplier Quality Agent of any trends in the data that could potentially move to a non-conformance. 7.
