10、-,-4PREFACE The Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) has instituted a Qualified Suppliers List for Distributors (QSLD) Program for products in Federal Stock Class (FSCs) 5961 and 5962. The purpose of this QSLD program is to establish and maintain a list of pre-qualified distributors for certain ful

11、ly competitive products which are purchased and managed by DSCC. The criteria for qualification are tailored along the lines of best commercial business practices. This document contains the criteria and provisions for the program. The Quality Management System (QMS) requirements of the program are

12、contained in Section 3 and 4 of JEDEC standard JESD31, General Requirements for Distributors of Commercial and Military Semiconductor Devices. The JESD31 document may be obtained online at http:/www.jedec.org/Catalog/catalog.cfm. All distributors who wish to participate in this QSLD Program must hav

13、e an assigned Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) Code and become DSCC qualified. CAGE Codes may be requested online from http:/www.ccr.gov, or call the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) Help Desk at (888) 227-2423. To become qualified, a distributor must satisfy all sections of this documen

14、t and referenced documents. Qualification is valid for 3 years unless terminated or revoked. There is no fee to apply or to become qualified. Only distributors listed on the QSLD will be able to receive awards solicited under this program. Items purchased under the QSLD program will be identified in

15、 the Purchase Order Text (POT). Once qualified and listed as a source on the QSLD, the distributor will be required to adhere to contractual clauses and procurement provisions with the responsible DSCC buying office. The QSLD Program application forms, criteria and provisions are published and maint

16、ained by the qualifying activity here at DSCC. Requests for copies may be addressed to: Defense Supply Center Columbus ATTN: DSCC-VQ P.O.

17、ualification for placement on the Qualified Suppliers List for Distributors (QSLD), and the maintenance of QSLD status, requires the distributor to demonstrate that it has in place, and uses on a routine basis, a Quality Management System (QMS) that meets the criteria set forth in JESD31. The object

18、ive of the QSLD Program is to ensure that the distributor routinely controls his processes to provide consistent delivery of products that conform to the contract and specification requirements. Four key elements are required of distributors who wish to be listed on the QSLD. These are: a. Evidence

19、of using a documented Quality Management System which meets DSCCs criteria. b. QPL/QML products having been produced by a Manufacturer who is listed (or was at date of manufacture) on the QPL or QML, and commercial products produced by the original manufacturer, may be purchased under this program I

20、f the products were procured from another distributor, that distributor must be listed on the QSLD. Consequently, all products pursuant to DSCCs contract must be obtained from, or flow through QSLD providers. This closed loop flow must be supported by the providers traceability documentation. No dev

21、iations are permitted under this QSLD program. c. Evidence that product is not commingled; lot identity is maintained. d. The quality of the product is not altered by Distributors. 2.0 SCOPE The products that DSCC procures which are included in this program are certain safety critical and high relia

22、bility items which fall into the Federal Supply Classes of 5961 (semiconductors) and 5962 (monolithic and hybrid microcircuits). See http:/www.dscc.dla.mil/Programs/MilSpec/DocSearch.asp to obtain specifications and standards. 2.1 OBJECTIVE 2.1.1 The objective of the QSLD Program is to establish and

23、 maintain a list of pre-qualified Distributors whose regular use of in-place process controls is designed to ensure delivery of quality products that meet specified requirements, and that participant Distributors likewise control all applicable value-added inventory services associated with defense

24、logistics. The ultimate goals are to improve quality with quality system elements and to reduce product delivery lead times by means of standard quality/process control practices in lieu of certain Government quality assurance provisions and source inspections. 2.1.2 Candidate business distributors

25、are approved for these lists by complying with an established set of quality management and process control requirements, and agreeing to a set of administrative requirements.

49、 no charge to the Distributor. During audits, random sample collection of the Distributors product shall be allowed for the purpose of independent laboratory testing. Thus, DSCC may pull samples for later testing against specification or contract requirement. The Government will pay for the cost of such tests and the Distributors expense is limited only to the cost of a small quantity of samples
