I have been asked to determine if our company can have a counterfeit avoidance program conforming to AS6174, Counterfeit Materiel; Assuring Acquisition of Authentic and Conforming Materiel.
Our company is a manufacturer that orders raw materials, completes formulations using those raw materials and converts the formulations into finished products. The raw materials and formulations are not specified by customers or standards. The formulation numbers are listed on Qualified Products Lists.
I'm having difficulty determining how AS6174 applies to manufacturers. It seems it should apply to distributors and users. Any Covers have experience with the programs and standards for Counterfeit Avoidance?
