Supplier qualification

Verify the document, the model and its scope.

Quality evidence needs to match the entity, manufacturing site and product proposed for your project. This page explains what to request and how to review it; it does not publish certificate scans or batch reports.

Check whose name is on the document

A management-system certificate applies to the entity and site identified on it. It does not automatically certify every product sold under a brand. A test report should identify the model, sample or lot, method and conditions covered by its results.

Document review

Categories to include in your qualification checklist

First confirm which documents exist and can be shared for the proposed site and product. This list does not claim that Kalstor or every supplier holds each certification.

ISO 9001

Quality management system

Review the legal holder, site, covered activities, certification body and validity.

ISO 14001

Environmental management system

Check that the certificate scope and site match the proposed manufacturing route.

IATF 16949

Automotive project requirements

Where your project requires it, request evidence for the relevant site. This does not establish automotive qualification for every device.

RoHS

Restricted-substance documentation

Request the declaration or test evidence applicable to the selected part number and product materials.

Product evidence

Match the results to the agreed specification

The inspection plan and available records are confirmed per model and order. Describing a test method does not mean it is performed on every unit.

Model specification

Part number and revision; capacity, interface, dimensions, temperature, performance conditions and applicable endurance limits.

Capacity verification

Tool and version, tested capacity, write/read pattern, sample size, date, lot identification and results or errors.

Application qualification

Host, firmware, workload, temperature, procedure, acceptance criteria and limits of the test conclusions.

Prepare your supplier review

Send the model and the evidence you need.

Include the host device, application, expected volume and document checklist. Confirm document availability and disclosure restrictions before approving the order.
