4. Selection, approval and release of suppliers
ASM AS base its selection of suppliers on the criteria of quality, technology, logistics, price and productivity.
During the selection process, supplies must prove that they are capable of supplying their products in order to meet all
requirements of the specifications, drawings and order conditions of ASM AS.
ASM AS will usually evaluate a supplier’s capability to provide quality prior to the start of a supplier relationship. The
method to determine this capability can be a combination of supplier declaration, a visit, a system audit, a process audit
and the evaluation of product samples.
The positive evaluation of the above criteria will usually result in the placement of an order including a first article
inspection.
The successful first article inspection and the proven stable quality of the series production will result in the release
(acceptance) of the supplier.
5. Order Processing / Change Management
5.1. Orders
Central contact person for all interests of the supplier is the purchase department of ASM AS.
Orders are exclusively placed via the Strategic Purchasing or the Operative Purchasing / Planning & Scheduling
departments.
ASM AS is not obliged to accept any service provided prior to the effective conclusion of a contract.
For any placed order, the supplier shall verify the documents enclosed with the order with respect to plausibility,
completeness and feasibility (technically and deadline-related). The supplier shall verify the documents made available to
him with respect to the mentioned and other applicable guidelines, standards and legal provisions and discuss any
discrepancies with ASM AS. The supplier shall confirm the contents of the order verification to ASM AS by way of order
confirmation.
In case of any discrepancies or changes or in case of expected delays, the supplier shall inform ASM AS in writing and
initiate adequate measures to solve the problem.
5.2. Order basis
As a rule, an order is based on released documents. These documents are part of the order and are enclosed in full at
least with every initial or First article order.
The supplied technical documents shall always be verified for their completeness and current status.
Being of subsequent rank to the defined requirements in the concluded contracts and quality agreements, the
requirements from these “Technical Conditions of Orders and Deliveries” shall apply.
5.3. Inquiries
Inquiries to suppliers must at least include the following information:
• Technical description of product or description of service
• Basic framework conditions and information about the application or use of the requested product / service
• Applicable additional standards and guidelines

5.4. Product Changes
ASM AS may only introduce technical changes for series parts/components with the supplier on the basis of written
change notices. The scope of the change and the interface at which it takes effect must be unambiguously defined. At
ASM AS, this is done using an external change notice issued by the relevant purchasing or logistics department.
5.4.1. Product changes at supplier side
The designs, reliability requirements and manufacturing processes agreed and defined in the order documentation may
not be changed without the written approval of ASM AS; failure to comply with this provision could result in unexpected
severe and expensive consequences for the finished product.
The supplier shall notify the purchasing and quality assurance departments for supplied parts at ASM AS of any planned
change to products and manufacturing processes as far as these have an impact on form and appearance,
interchangeability or functionality and attributes.
The supplier shall identify and document the changes and subject them to a test that is adequate for the changes. In this
context, it shall verify all requirements with respect to functionality, compatibility and interchangeability with existing
products.
The suppliers must maintain an adequate version management system for their own products.
5.4.2. Product Discontinuation / Product Cessation by the Supplier
If it is the supplier’s intention to stop producing and delivering an approved product, Procurement / Commodity
Management (ASM AS) must be informed of this in a timely fashion.
To this end the supplier must furnish the following information to Procurement / Commodity Management no later than 6
months before discontinuation of production:
• ASM material number of the module discontinued and disposed of
• Residual amount that could still be delivered
• Last delivery deadline or deadline for “Last Call“
• Possibilities for substitute coverage
• Suggestions for substitutes including assessment of the risks if supplier uses an alternative product
The supplier is obligated to deliver the ordered residual coverage such that this will withstand a specified storage period
without detrimentally affecting the product and processing properties. The buyer is to be informed of the relevant storage
conditions (e.g., climatic).
5.5. Property of ASM AS – production tools
The conditions will be laid down contractually when tools are ordered.
Independent from this condition, tools ordered and paid from ASM AS, has to be marked as property of the ASM AS
(Material number, property ASM AS).
6. Technical Documentation
6.1. Bill of materials as master document
The bill of materials, which is to be considered the master document, specifies all corresponding subassemblies, individual
parts and specific documents defining the ordered product. The supplier shall verify against this bill of materials whether
all relevant documents are available in their current version for the execution of the order.

6.2. Technical numbering system
The identification of the ASM AS products is described below. Any change of a master number (= part number) or a
functional version (FS) or product version (ES), which can also be referred to as a revision (RV), can affect the
manufacturing of the products. All employees of the supplier who are involved in parts, assemblies and systems to be
supplied to ASM AS must be familiar with the numbering system.
