Vendor control rules

A short vendor control system can remove most hidden risks.

Rules

  • Approved list only: no new vendor for critical items without verification.
  • Ask for photos of nameplate, packaging, and serial number when possible.
  • Cross check documents: CoC, test report, and packing list must match model and serial.
  • Lead time evidence: ask for current stock proof or production commitment.
  • Store vendor performance: late delivery, wrong docs, quality issues, and response speed.
