The sourcing decision

Qualify the exact site and production line. Assign ownership of materials, tooling, test methods, product approvals, change control and excess or obsolete inventory. Record which imported inputs the manufacturer must secure.

Documents and checks

Keep the agreement, approved sites, specification, bill of materials, validation, quality plan, lot records, release evidence and shipment documents.

Regulated and high-specification products may require approvals that belong to a particular facility or process. A site transfer can therefore require requalification.
