Supplier Selection Policy
We conduct business with suppliers under the following conditions:
- They have a stable management foundation and production base.
- They operate in compliance with laws and social norms.
- They possess advanced technical capabilities that contribute to our products.
- They incorporate environmental management into their operations in accordance with our green procurement standards.
In addition, we select superior suppliers based on stable and optimal QCDS+E.
In our selection process, we value not only past and current performance, but also management policies and activities that contribute to future competitiveness.
- "Q" refers to continuously delivering procurement items with appropriate quality.
- "C" refers to supplying competitively priced procurement items.
- "D" refers to the ability to supply the right quantity at the right time.
- "S" refers to the provision of a wide range of services.
- "E" refers to reducing the environmental impact of procurement items for environmental conservation.
Additionally, we conduct rigorous internal assessments and external audits.
1. Risk Assessment
We confirm whether a new supplier is a sound company, has a stable management foundation, and has no financial problems. This involves submitting documents such as business licenses, and where necessary, requesting investigations by external agencies.
2. Self-Audit via Document Review
Before on-site inspections, suppliers undergo a document review to determine if they meet our criteria. We check not only quality-related items, but also ISO and environmental factors during this review.
3. On-Site Audits by Visiting the Manufacturer
Once a supplier passes the document review, we conduct a site audit. Typically, the quality assurance team, CE (Component Approval), and purchasing department visit for the audit. In addition to standard process audits, we also perform audits of documents such as ISO.
4. Final Evaluation
Based on the audit results, if improvements are needed, an improvement report is requested. Suppliers who score 90 points or more, the passing criterion, are approved and can begin formal transactions with us.
We also conduct an annual update audit for existing suppliers to continually enhance their quality standards.
