Dear Partner✨
In Industrial PC applications, we understand that any component interruption, specification deviation, or temporary substitution may introduce additional certification and validation workload, and potentially impact system reliability, certification status, and mass production schedules.
In recent years, volatility in the global memory market has intensified. The challenge has gradually shifted from cost control to supply stability and predictability management.
For Industrial PC products, the impact extends beyond procurement — it directly affects Design Freeze stability, product qualification validity, and long-term lifecycle maintenance strategy.
Based on the requirement for long-term consistency and traceability in Industrial PC applications, Waris would like to discuss the following integrated collaboration framework:
🚀1. Long-Term Agreement (LTA)
Through alignment on annual demand forecasts and shipment cadence, we can pre-plan capacity and IC sourcing so that critical part numbers maintain supply priority during market fluctuations, reducing the risks of allocation, emergency substitution, and re-qualification.
🚀2. Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI)
Waris manages inventory for key part numbers, allowing your team to maintain supply buffering and lead-time flexibility without increasing inventory burden, while also minimizing batch variation caused by urgent purchasing.
🚀3. Certified Quality Assurance (CQA)
To reduce the impact of component changes on design and certification, Waris implements a CQA framework including:
🔸Traceable IC source and lot consistency control
🔸Formal Product Change Notification (PCN) process
🔸 Electrical, compatibility, and functional equivalence verification prior to substitution
🔸Defined lifecycle management and EOL planning
🔸Pre-change risk assessment with documented records
Under this framework, even when supply adjustments are required, changes can be managed within the existing qualification boundary, reducing re-qualification effort and operational risk.
We would like to emphasize that this model is not a binding purchasing commitment, but a collaboration approach centered on reducing Industrial PC supply and validation risks. All details can be flexibly adjusted according to your actual product design and certification requirements.
We sincerely look forward to arranging a discussion to evaluate the most suitable supply and quality collaboration approach based on your product and validation process.
Best regards,
WARIS
