Quote and change control
Exact Bar does not use a web page to approve a source or establish compliance. Any proposed substitution or delivery commitment is documented for buyer review. The purchase order, accepted quote, order acknowledgement, incorporated specifications, and lot-specific evidence establish the accepted requirement.
Questions about this requirement
Can Exact Bar support customer-specific material flow-downs?
State every flow-down on the RFQ. Exact Bar evaluates the proposed source and document route and confirms what is included on the written quote; the web page is not compliance proof.
Are substitutions allowed?
No substitution or material change is authorized without written buyer approval.
