There's been a procedural requirement at our facility that a qualification strategy be filled out for each new supplier.
This almost never happened. Maybe 5% of the suppliers had this strategy filled out for them over the last ten years.
We're looking at this now and we want to be in compliance. The suggestions so far are to retrospectively fill out the forms. But is it right to go back and fill out forms that dictate a plan to qualify a supplier, when that supplier has been shipping product to us for years?
Is there anything we can do to help ourselves when we get audited and this gets looked at?
Thank you!
