Purpose
EVCO Plastics has established, and is committed to maintaining a documented Quality System that meets the
requirements of ISO:9001, TS16949, and those of our customers. The purpose of the “Supplier Excellent
Manual” is to communicate the quality requirements and expectations to our suppliers. Suppliers that provide
materials to EVCO Plastics should have or have developed a quality system based on the requirements of
ISO9001 and/or TS16949, and EVCO Plastics’ specific requirements which are included in this document. The
requirements and expectations of this manual focus, not only on physical characteristics, but also on the level
of service, delivery, and cost containment by each supplier.

Supplier Management
1.1
Qualification
1.1.1
Supplier Evaluation
Suppliers under consideration shall be initially evaluated by an on-site audit of the
Supplier’s quality systems or by a self-audit evaluation based on EVCO Plastics Supplier
Evaluation (SF 2.014) (See Appendix E). The completed Self-Evaluation is required prior
to the implementation of business with EVCO Plastics. Annual self-audits may be
requested. An on-site audit is determined necessary when the scope of supplied product
is deemed critical and/or complex.
1.1.2
Self-Audit / ISO Certification
EVCO Plastics’ Self Evaluation (Appendix E) emphasizes critical areas such as quality
systems and preventative maintenance that are keys to product quality. A copy of the
Suppliers ISO or TS certificate may be submitted to EVCO Plastics Purchasing in lieu of
the completed Self-Evaluation. The Supplier is to return the Self Evaluation within 30
days of issuance. EVCO Plastics Purchasing will score and sign the Self-Evaluation.
A Supplier is considered approved when a minimum score of 90% is achieved; and is
conditionally approved when a minimum score of 75% is achieved. “Conditionally
Approved” suppliers may achieve “Preferred” status through implementation of quality
systems that meet the requirements of ISO 9001 and/or TS16949. If the Supplier
chooses not to implement further system changes, an EVCO Plastics team may review
and determine what actions and/or controls are necessary to ensure quality product is
delivered to EVCO Plastics’ facilities. At the discretion of the respective Purchasing
Agent, Conditionally Approved Suppliers may also achieve “Preferred” status after they
have achieved a performance rating of 90% or better for three (3) months.
1.1.3
Supplier Contacts
Each Supplier shall supply a contact list to the appropriate EVCO Plastics Purchasing
Agent. Recommended contacts include the Company’s President, Top Sales Executive,
Account Manager, Plant Manager, Quality Manager and primary contact person at each
Supplier location. The list should be updated as changes occur.
1.1.4
Terms and Conditions
Upon receipt of a Purchase Order from EVCO Plastics, the Supplier agrees to comply with

receive non-conforming materials or services from our suppliers, we can not improve quality, reduce costs or maintain schedules. It is imperative that we
continuously improve the quality of our product if we are to survive in a world market.
If you have any questions pertaining to the above, please contact your appropriate EVCO purchasing representative.

Congratulations,
(Vendor Name)
(Contact Name)
You have achieved a score of
%
Your status is Approved:
Conditionally Approved:
Not Approved:
A score of 75-100% qualifies a Conditionally Approved. The status is elevated to Preferred after having demonstrated conformance to on-time delivery, quality, and
percentage of order fulfillment criteria for a minimum of three months.
A score of less than 75% qualifies as permanent Conditionally Approved status. An on-site audit may be conducted to ensure quality and delivery performance criteria
can be met as required. Conditionally approved suppliers may seek Approved status through the implementation and verification of quality systems that meet criteria
specified in the self-audit.
At the end of each month, an analysis will be conducted to determine a monthly performance rating. The following are the three areas of performance measurements
and their weighted averages.
On-Time Delivery:
Quality:
Subjective:
48 Points
48 Points
2 Points
100 Points
Suppliers must maintain a current month’s rating of 75% or greater and a 3-moth rolling average of 90% or greater to maintain your status. Falling below any of these
values will result in the issuance of a corrective action.

Corporate Purchasing Manager
