Common use of Kits Clause in Contracts

Kits. Kits are defined as modifications to existing tooling, related tooling structure, or automated transfer equipment required to bring the tooling into conformance with specifications or to incorporate engineering changes. Tool suppliers will perform kit installation work within the area occupied by the existing tooling and equipment. This area is defined as inside machine guarding, on the base plate of tooling, or on related tooling structure of the machine or automation. This includes valve manifolds, junction boxes, and control centers, which support the current tooling, either inside or outside of guarding. It shall not be a violation of this section of the agreement should the tool supplier elect to utilize building trades crafts in lieu of vendor technicians for all or any portion of the work described above, as conditions dictate. Building trades crafts will provide labor for required utility services (i.e. electric, air, water, etc.) or service modifications to the fixture, outside of the tooling base plate, transfer, or tooling structure. This will include installation of any additional hydraulic units, welding controllers or major electrical control panels added to balconies or outside of the existing tooling structure. When circumstances require retrofitting entire systems or production lines (i.e. Bodysides, Framing, Respot, Underbody, Block, Head, Crank, etc.) previously accepted by Chrysler for new product programs the building trades crafts will perform the initial installation work as described herein or as directed or delegated by the Chrysler designated NMAPC liaison. Once the installing contractor site representative, the tooling vendor site representative, and the owner’s site representative agree that the tooling/kitting work in question performed by the installing contractor is complete, a sign-off tag will be attached to the tooling/kit and the tooling/kitting will be considered conditionally bought off. The tooling system is now the responsibility of the owner/vendor and any subsequent work is to be performed as directed by the owner/vendor as described herein. Tooling related warranty work may be performed prior to Sign-Off when the work is required for immediate safety or to ensure scheduled production start-up. In these rare circumstances, the work must be authorized by the Chrysler designated NMAPC liaison. When the new tool or the newly kitted tool has been completely installed and is ready for initial start-up, the tool supplier will provide technical support to assure equipment is installed to the intent of design. They will start the new tools. Corrections to the contractor’s installations identified during startup, such as piping leaks, incorrect rotation, misalignment, and the like, will be handled by building trades crafts to the tool supplier's and Chrysler's satisfaction. The tooling supplier will provide qualified technicians to debug the system and assure readiness for production. This will include any unforeseen minor modifications required to make tooling compatible with the overall system and any "Kitting" (see Kits above) required for warranty repairs or product engineering changes. Tool suppliers will perform kit installation work within the area occupied by the existing tooling and equipment. This area is defined as inside machine guarding, on the base plate of tooling, or on related tooling structure of the machine or automation. This includes valve manifolds, junction boxes, and control centers, which support the current tooling, either inside or outside of guarding.

When circumstances require retrofitting entire systems or production lines (i.e. Bodysides, Framing, Respot, Underbody, Block, Head, Crank, etc.) previously accepted by Chrysler FCA for new product programs the building trades crafts will perform the initial installation work as described herein or as directed or delegated by the Chrysler FCA designated NMAPC liaison.
