PURPOSE/SCOPE:
The purpose of this document is to describe the criteria for Supplier Performance Review and rating. The
document also informs Suppliers and Subcontractors what standards the Suppliers are responsible to meet and
how TTM monitors and controls Supplier Performance.

These provisions supplement the existing Terms and Conditions of the Purchasing Agreement and Supplier FAR
and DFAR Requirements. Each Supplier or Service Provider listed on the Approved Supplier List shall access this
document via the TTM website at http://www.ttmtech.com/support/supplier_req.aspx. The document shall be
reviewed to ensure compliance to the below requirements. If a Supplier or Service Provider is unable to access
the TTM website, they must contact the Purchasing Department to request a copy of this document. Exceptions
to a specific provision require that a written request be submitted to the applicable Purchasing Manager.

DEFINITIONS:
Approved Supplier List: A List of Suppliers approved (by TTM and/or our customer) to supply specific materials
or services to TTM.

Corrective Action: An action to eliminate the cause of non-conformity or other undesirable situation.

Critical Materials and Services: Materials and/or services falling under the category of Critical and Major
Suppliers.

Discrepant Material Report (DMR): This is where nonconforming material is documented when it does not meet
TTMs’ Quality Standards. It is to be separated from inventory stock until a resolution is made with the Supplier.

TTM Quality Assurance Provisions (QAP): Quality Assurance Provisions are determined by TTM regarding
specific materials and services. These are written as Request for Proposal (RFP) and/or notes on Purchase Orders.

1.0 Supplier Approval Process

1.1 ISO9001 and AS9100 Certified Suppliers: ISO 9001 / AS9100 Certified Suppliers are recognized by
TTM as having a valid Quality System.
1.2 Calibration Subcontractors: Are required to maintain a documented calibration program that is in
compliance with the requirements of ANSI NCS Z540-3, which includes traceability to the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or ANSI/ISO/IEC 17025 (latest revision).
1.3 Non-ISO Certified Suppliers: Non-ISO Certified Suppliers are required to have controls over their
production processes, materials, records and documentation. Lists of minimum requirements are as
follows:
(a) Configuration Control: System which maintains control over the interrelated functional
and physical characteristics of a product – from the time the initial purchase order is
received until the product is delivered to TTM.
(b) Process Documentation: Supplier processes that can affect product quality shall be
documented and followed. This documentation shall also be available for auditing.
(c) Process Flow: A Process Flow shall be determined for processing work. The flow shall be
documented, followed and available for auditing. Travelers are a typical method.

TTM Technologies, Inc.

 CORP-SA-001 C

Corporate Level 1 Document Supplier Quality Agreement PAGE 5 OF 14

(d) Process Control / Monitoring: Processes that affect the quality of the products shall be
controlled. There shall be a monitoring system that measures and records key aspects of
the processes (e.g. pressures, temperatures, pH, concentrations, time, and speed). These
measurements shall be documented and maintained as quality records and available for
review.
(e) Identification and Traceability: Products and materials produced for TTM shall have lot
information provided and traceability of all the component materials used in its
construction. If TTM discovers a root cause for a quality issue to be from a material
purchased by a Supplier that was used in their manufacturing process, the Supplier needs
to be able to identify all the lots of material or parts that they shipped to TTM that used
the indicated material. The Supplier shall also be able to find and contain all such
affected material on their site. When acceptance authority media are used (e.g.,
stamps, electronic signatures, passwords), the organization shall establish appropriate
controls for the media.
(f) Internal Audits: Suppliers need to have a schedule that covers all of their processes for
internal audits. Processes need to be reviewed for effectiveness, risk assessment and up
to date manufacturing and inspection methods. Operations shall also be audited for their
conformance to the processes. Documentation of these audits shall be kept as quality
records.
(g) Continuous Improvement: Suppliers shall incorporate continuous improvement tools to
control processes and prevent defects.
(h) First Article Inspection: A system needs to be in place to do a complete measurement of
the first part of a new product. Whatever specifications the part or material are required
to meet shall be measured. A report shall be put together with the measurement and
analysis information into a First Article Report, which shall be submitted to TTM for
approval. An approved First Article Report demonstrates that the Supplier’s production
process is capable of producing an article compliant to all design requirements.
(i) Control of Non-Conforming Product: A system shall be maintained and controlled to
separate defective materials and segregate them so they are not accidentally used.
(j) Inspection Records: Inspections and measurements are required to prove adherence to
specifications. These inspections and measurements shall be documented and kept in a
form that is retrievable within 48 hours.
(k) Sampling Inspection: In cases where it is not practical or economically feasible to inspect
all outgoing material 100%, Suppliers must comply with ANSI NCSL Z540-3 or to the
American Society for Quality (ASQ) for sampling methods and sample sizes. The
methodology used shall be made available to TTM upon request.
(l) Certification of Compliance as an Alternative to Inspection Records: Certification as a
means to prove material conformance to specifications involves receipt of a certificate
from the Supplier stating that certain tests and inspections have been implemented at
the Supplier’s location. If a Supplier is considered reliable and has established a good past
history, certification may be used as evidence of product quality in place of outgoing
inspection. Because some customers such as Military and Commercial Aviation have
requirements to control all incoming material with statistical sampling, Suppliers who use
certification for proof of conformance may still be required to perform inspections.

TTM Technologies, Inc.

Corporate Level 1 Document Supplier Quality Agreement PAGE 6 OF 14

(m) Corrective Action / Preventive Action: When responding to a quality failure issue,
Suppliers need to take both corrective and preventive actions. Examples of corrective
actions are: rework of defective product, person who violated a process is coached by a
mentor, faulty equipment is repaired. Examples of preventive actions are: process
parameters are changed to improve product, new training is written and used for annual
re-certification, and new items are added to the equipment maintenance schedule.
(n) Training: Suppliers are responsible to ensure their employees are capable of performing
the duties necessary to produce quality product and create adequate records thereof.
Any function that requires special knowledge or skills also requires training for the
employees. Records shall be retained to verify training efforts and employee
competency.
(o) Calibration Control: Measuring devices used to verify product conformance shall be
calibrated and traceable to national standards. A sticker indicating the calibration date
and expiration date is required. Gage R&R Studies should be performed on equipment.
These shall be made available to TTM upon request.
(p) Packaging: TTM shall ensure that product (i.e. panels or printed circuit boards) are
properly packaged prior to being transported to a Subcontractor (i.e. Via Fill, ENEPIG,
ENIG, HASL). The Subcontractor shall establish and maintain a documented system for
the control and monitoring of its packaging and shipping practices with provisions for
handling, preservation, storage, packaging and final shipment. The system must be
designed to ensure the quality of the deliverable material through prevention of damage,
deterioration and degradation. When the packaging requirements are not detailed on
the TTM Purchase Order, the method used will be “best commercial practices”. All
Laminate and Prepreg materials are to have individual boxes/bags with proper separation
between each panel to prevent handling damage.

Note: TTM Receiving is responsible for verifying that the Material Supplier or the
Subcontractor properly packaged the product. If not, TTM Purchasing and Quality shall
be immediately contacted.

1.4 Supplier Self-Assessment Survey (SSAS): The TTM Supplier Self-Assessment Survey and a standard
non-disclosure agreement will be sent to Critical and Major Suppliers or Subcontractors as part of the
TTM qualification process. The SSAS and NDA must be completed by the Supplier or Subcontractor
and returned to the TTM individual(s) who sent the documents. Other required agreements shall be
mutually agreed by the parties.
1.5 Outside Services (Subcontractors): Shipping will verify with Purchasing that a Subcontractor is listed
on the Approved Supplier List prior to shipping product for processing. If the Subcontractor is not
listed, Purchasing and Quality must be notified before further action is taken.
(a) To work on ITAR (International Traffic and Arms Regulations) product, the Supplier shall
be registered with the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC). The personnel who
are within the facility or provide service to TTM products must be either U.S. citizens or
permanent residents. Status of ITAR verification is referenced on the Approved Supplier
List.
(b) If there are any questions, contact the applicable TTM site’s Export Compliance Officer.

Corporate Level 1 Document Supplier Quality Agreement PAGE 10 OF 14

managed through performance meetings. The performance meetings may be held on a month,
semi-annual or annual basis.
3.4 Scorecards: Supplier may be measured periodically with Scorecards. The selection of these
Suppliers is determined by Purchasing and/or Quality. The purpose of the Scorecards is for TTM to
be readily able to review the Supplier’s Performance. Scorecards can have a significant influence
on Procurement decisions that do not have ‘Performance Metric’ meetings, as described in
section 3.3 of this procedure.
(a) Performance Categories: TTM Supplier Scorecards are broken into 4 categories /
subgroups:
Quality
 DPPM Review
 Corrective Actions
Cost
 Cost competitiveness, payment terms
Delivery
 On Time Delivery, Product Lead Time, Timeliness of Order Acknowledgement
 Availability of replenishment programs, such as Consignment agreement,
Vendor Managed Inventory, etc.
Technology

 Technology Development
 Technical Support & Responsiveness

(b) Scoring: Each of these categories is scored on a weighted scale. The weighting of each

(e.g. Purchase Orders, Contracts, and Condition of Purchase).

TTM Technologies, Inc.

 CORP-SA-001 C

Corporate Level 1 Document Supplier Quality Agreement PAGE 11 OF 14

TTM will inform Suppliers of On-Site Audits in advance. If the Audit is performed due to
nonconforming product, the Supplier will segregate and keep such product for the inspection of
the coming auditor(s). Upon Audit completion, conforming product may be shipped according to
customary methods in accordance with the current TTM Purchase Orders.
3.6 3rd Party Auditors: TTM may determine that a qualified 3rd Party Auditor(s) is required due to
business conditions or staffing availability. The Auditor(s) will be acting on behalf of TTM. They
will require the same access granted to TTMs’ employees (e.g. SQA Services).
3.7 Supplier Monitoring: All Suppliers are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Quality discrepancies may
results in issuance of a Supplier Corrective Action Request (SCAR), which will be recorded in the
Supplier’s File. Ongoing Approval Status of Suppliers constitutes the record of Suppliers’
conformance to TTM requirements.
4.0 Supplier Quality Concerns
4.1 Supplier Notification to TTM of Discrepant Materials: When a Supplier becomes aware that they
have shipped nonconforming materials or will miss a delivery due to nonconforming material,
TTM shall be notified within 24 hours.
4.2 Quality Control Measures: Dependent upon the risk to TTM, product quality, and the availability
of replacement Suppliers / Subcontractors, TTM will determine the level of response required for
non-conforming product. Below are examples of control mechanisms TTM may utilize:
(a) Supplier Corrective Action Request (SCAR): A formally issued complaint regarding the
Supplier’s Quality.
(b) Rejection of Material: TTM Quality or Engineering Representatives may reject
incoming materials or services that do not meet the specifications provided to the
Suppliers.
3rd Party Inspectors may also reject Supplier Products or Services based on quality
that doesn’t meet the specifications provided to the Suppliers.
(c) Outgoing Inspection Levels: May be increased. For example, if a Supplier is having a
high rate of nonconforming escapes and they are using a 4% AQL Sampling Level, TTM
may request they move to a 1% AQL Sampling Level, thus increasing the number of
samples inspected per each lot of material.
(d) 3rd Party Inspections: May be required. At TTM’s discretion, quality verification may
be required by a qualified 3rd Party or by TTM’s Quality or Engineering Team. 3rd
Party Inspections will be at the expense of the Supplier. If TTM performs the
additional inspection services, the Supplier may be invoiced for these services.
(e) Corrective Action: When a Corrective Action request is issued; the Supplier is
expected, at a minimum, to comply with the following actions:

TTM Technologies, Inc.

 Contain the defective material and report status to the TTM Supplier Quality
Representative within 48 hours from the Date of Notification.

 Provide a Corrective Action Plan and expected completion date within 2

weeks from the Date of Notification – or as stated in the CA request (refer to
Appendix 2).
 Complete the Action Plan and Verify Effectiveness, and then inform the TTM
Supplier Representative when completed.
 Supplier is required to use a team oriented approach to discover the root
cause of the problem and develop a solution.

(f) Performance Improvement Plan (PIP): Supplier may be required to develop a

Performance Improvement Plan (refer to Appendix 1). A PIP includes:
 Identify and Rank Risks / Weaknesses in their Process
 Choose Target Areas for Improvement
 Develop Improvement Plans
 Set Goals / Ownership / Timelines
 Develop Measurement & Control Plans
 Verify Effectiveness

(g) Supplier Waiver Request: Suppliers may request a waiver from TTM for
nonconforming materials. The waiver request shall be approved by TTM Site Quality
Leader, or delegate before any nonconforming material is shipped to TTM. If
approved, instructions for identifying the nonconforming product and shipping
instructions will be detailed on a Supplier Waiver Request for Nonconforming Product
Form.
(h) Rework & Repair: When rework and/or repair is required in order to meet the
product and/or material specifications – it is ONLY permitted after the Supplier has
submitted a Rework Plan and the Plan is approved by TTM.
4.3 Supplier Chargeback Process: The following steps are an outline of steps TTM may take to recover
costs incurred due to nonconforming materials from our Suppliers. It is solely at TTM discretion
whether or not we will pursue these actions. Alternative charge-back steps will be taken if
prearrangements are made with TTM.
(a) Nonconforming Supplier parts are identified through TTM receiving inspection, on-line
rejects, customer returns, alerts or Supplier recalls.

TTM Technologies, Inc.

 CORP-SA-001 C

(b) Suppliers will be notified of nonconforming products through the SCAR process or
request for failure analysis.
(c) An account is initiated by accounting to collect all costs incurred by TTM, as a result of
the nonconforming product.

Costs incurred may include, but are not limited to, the following items:
 Rework by TTM’s Costs
 Return for Rework Costs
 Replacement of Material Costs
 Recall of Material Costs
 Customers’ Charges for Removal/Return/Replacement
 Delivery Penalties from TTM’s Customer
 Travel Expense
 Source Inspection Costs as a Result of Nonconformance
 Containment Costs

 Additional Inspection Costs at TTM

(d) A letter is sent to the Supplier summarizing the costs incurred and TTM’s intent to
recover such costs.
(e) A detailed report of the costs is available for review and verification by the Supplier.
(f) For minor issues the charge will be a $250.00 flat rate to cover administrative costs
(g) The Supplier has 5 working days to respond to questions or review.
(h)
Note: The preferred method of cost recovery is to debit the Suppliers account, unless
an alternative agreement is reached through review with the Supplier. The charge
back will be initiated after 10 working days or completion of the review process.

4.4 Supplier Responsibility: It is the Supplier’s Responsibility to provide parts / processes that
conform to all specifications and reliability requirements and to accept liability for all escapes
caused by their quality discrepancies.
