Stellantis-FCA Statement of Requirements is one of those documents, considered when the organization is presenting the offer for new business, which is reflected in Customer Specific Requirements published on the IATF website.
The first document, which is referenced in SoR, is Basic Requirement Check List. It corresponds to the following requirements from IATF:
- 4.4.1.1 – Conformance of products and processes
- 7.1.3.1 – Plant, facility and equipment planning
Details concerning the application of the Basic Requirement Check List as CSR, Stellantis-FCA regulates in standards FGP.01 (SoR) and FGP.39.
The second document, which is referred by Stellantis-FCA as CSR, and which is contained in SoR, is the Additional Quality Requirements (AQR), which is corresponding to requirement 8.2.2. – determining the requirements for product and services. More details about this document are presented in separate publication.
Direct-Buy requirements
The next point that Stellantis-FCA refers as CSR linked to SoR is information for customer directed-sources (“Direct-Buy”) referred to requirement 8.4.1.3. At this point, the customer specifies all requirements relating to the suppliers indicated by him, starting from signing contract agreements by the organization, and ending on the management of such sub-suppliers for current production.
In addition to referencing standard in this section, the customer further informs that if the organization has one or more “Direct-buy” suppliers, then in the development phase client is responsible for the Advance Quality Planning, Process Audit and Production Demonstration Run, until the component Full Approval (FA).
At this stage, the organization should participate together with the client in the activities in the “Direct-Buy” sub-supplier, unless otherwise agreed by the customer. However, in the case of current production, the organization is responsible for managing the current quality topics of the such sub-suppliers, working with the client to solve topics.
Forever Requirements
The last document, that is Stellantis-FCA CSR referring to the IATF requirement 7.4 (Communication), are Forever Requirements. In these requirements, the client, among others things, informs about the need for a proactive approach of the organization in case of quality and logistic issue occurring.
