Nonconformance
When Something
Is Wrong.
- Nonconforming material is quarantined and returned or replaced at the supplier’s cost
- Suppliers must notify ODS in writing as soon as they find a nonconformance on material already shipped
- Repeat nonconformances lower a supplier’s score and can remove them from the approved list
