Common use of Initial samples Clause in Contracts

Initial samples. Initial samples are products manufactured and tested under mass production conditions (machinery, systems, operating and testing equipment, machining conditions). The test results for all criteria are to be documented in an initial sample report. The number of parts to be documented is to be agreed with IMS CS. The initial samples are to be submitted to IMS CS on the agreed date together with the initial sample report and the documentation specified in the submission levels (Section 3.4). They must be clearly labelled as initial samples. The consecutive numbering used in the initial sample test report to identify the criteria must match that on the stamped drawing. Modules that are manufactured to an IMS CS design must be subjected to initial sampling, which includes the individual components, and the results presented to IMS CS. For products manufactured to the Supplier's own designs, the Supplier must produce initial samples of the module and submit these to IMS CS. Initial sampling must also be carried out for individual components and, where applicable, sub-modules. IMS CS must be permitted to inspect this documentation, if required. If deviations from the IMS CS specification were not identified during the production process and product approval procedure, this does not release the Supplier from its obligation, and IMS CS retains the right to reject such deviations at a later date.
