WHAT AM I BEING ASKED TO DO?
As a Tier 1 supplier, you will be asking your suppliers to provide data that you will use to populate the download-able SAVE Survey Template that is organized by the parts and materials that they supply to you, and to which model they apply.
This template is customized for you, and has well-defined places to enter the data being requested.
You will be asked to provide the following data for each of your suppliers:
- Tier 1 (your) commodity name that you supply to Toyota
- Toyota Model name that uses this commodity
- Level of lower tier (Tier 2, Tier 3, etc.) supplying to you
- Lower tier component or material name that you purchase
- Lower tier supplier corporate name, plant name, country, address
- Single source (Y/N)
- Unique spec (Y/N)
- Countermeasure detail (if required)
- Recovery lead-time evaluation
