Supplier selection and evaluation

When developing, manufacturing, and selling the AC adapter, our company aims for "procurement of materials" at our company as "fair and impartial."

In addition, reliable acquisition of high-quality parts is established by mutual trust and cooperation with suppliers.

• "Fair" means conducting transactions with suppliers by established procedures.
• "Equity" means equally contacting suppliers.

We also emphasize cooperative relationships with suppliers concerning the improvement of technical capability, stability of quality, competitive material price, etc.

Supplier selection policy

Our company sets the following conditions for engaging with suppliers:

1. Possessing a stable management foundation and production bases.
2. Conducting business in compliance with laws and social norms.
3. Having high technical capabilities that can contribute to our products.
4. Incorporating environmental management into business practices by our green procurement standards.

We select "better and superior supplier" and "stable and optimum QCDS + E."

Our suppliers play a crucial role in our success. We not only consider their past and present performance but also place significant importance on their management policies and activities. These factors could become a competitive advantage for our company in the future.
"Q" stands for the continuous supply of appropriate quality products.
"C" represents the supply of competitively priced products.
"D" is the ability to supply on time and in quantity.
"S" indicates the provision of multifaceted services.
"E" denotes reducing the environmental impact of procured products with the goal of environmental preservation.

In addition to the above, we will conduct strict internal reviews and external audits within the company.

1. Risk check

Is the manufacturer that starts a new transaction a sound company? Is there a stable management board? We check risks, such as whether we have fund problems. In addition to submitting documents such as business licenses, we will request surveys during the external investigation period, if necessary.

2. Self-audit through document review

First, we will examine the document before confirming the site and confirming whether we can meet the reference point. Besides quality concerns, document review confirms content from the viewpoint of ISO and the environment.

3. On-site audit by maker visit

When the document examination passes, it will be confirmed at the work site heading for factory audit. Usually, the audit department of the product pipe and the purchasing department of the CE (parts approval department) go all the way to the site and conduct the audit. In addition to general process audits, we will simultaneously audit documents such as ISO.

4. Final judgment

Suppose there is a part that needs improvement in addition to the result of the audit. In that case, you can submit an improvement report and officially start trading as an audit passed to the manufacturer that gained more than 90 points, the acceptance standard point.

We conduct renewal audits once a year, including existing trading makers, and strive to improve manufacturers' quality.
