In addition to the other requirements recorded within this document, Suppliers shall hold all information received from Fiber-Line LLC in confidence, and no third party request for information will be authorized unless approved, in writing, by Harbour.

Supplier Performance
Harbour measures its suppliers on quality and delivery performance on a monthly basis. On-time delivery is measured by units on-time/units late (i.e. lbs, quarts). For example: If a supplier delivers 50 units on time, but the other 50 units are late, their on-time percentage would be 50%. Quality percentage is calculated using the same method. Three months in a row of performance below 93% in either category will initiate a corrective action to be sent to the supplier.

Corrective actions must be completed and returned within 30 days of notification.

Test Specimens for Design Approval, Inspection/Verification, Investigation, or Auditing;
When requested by Harbour Industries LLC or its customers, the supplier is required to provide test specimens for
inspection/verification, investigation and/or auditing purposes.

Traceability
The supplier must maintain traceability of parts and components used in Harbour’s products to their original authorized manufacturers.

Harbour also requires its suppliers to ensure its employees are aware of the following:

  • Their contribution to product or service conformity
  • Their contribution to product safety
  • The importance of ethical behavior
