Who pays for DVP? Subcontractors or Tier 1 Supplier?

hi all.

I am from a non-automotive field. But my company and our partner in China are working with a Tier one GM supplier to develop a new product. Currently, we just finish some pre-prototype samples and are working on developing a DVP using GMW3172 for validation purpose. I have two questions here:

1. Are there any testing facilities certified to perform GMW testing in China?

2. Who is supposed to take care the cost of doing such validation testing? Us or the Tier 1 supplier?

Any comment would be helpful.

Thanks

Welcome to the cove.

To put it in context
GMW3172 = General Specification for Electrical/Electronic Component Analytical/Development/Validation (A/D/V) Procedures for Conformance to Vehicle Environmental, Reliability, Durability, and Performance Requirements-

As to facilities I am afraid I do not know but as for cost this is as everything a matter of agreement between the 2 companies. It should have come up at contract review and been agreed then
I think that it depends on the ownership of the product.
Is the testing for the unit or for your work?
If its for your work then I would say it is your responsibility to show your customer that your workmanship is robust.
If it is on the final product then it is your customer as the product is his.
