Supplier Extended Enterprise Claims System (SEECS) - Chrysler

Supplier Extended Enterprise
Claims System (SEECS)

What is SEECS?
Supplier Extended Enterprise Claim System (SEECS) is a
system designed to reduce manual processing of
supplier claims.
• Communicates excess material to other Chrysler areas
• Provides information to supply partners regarding:
• Chrysler releases
• Shipping figures
• Program numbers used in the analysis of their
claims
2

What is the goal of SEECS?
To provide a process and control for the submission,
review, tracking, audit and approval of valid part claims
arising from engineering product change and/or
cancellation of production parts.
Note: Tooling claims are now processed through SCRS.
3

What IS a Claim for SEECS
Processing?
• Parts not yet in production: Maximum of 300 pieces; anything
above needs written authorization by Purchasing and proof of
part cancellation.
• Anything less than or equal to the Raw and Fab 830 release
authorization with proper authorization (Standard PO term 2-6
week or Extended Authorization from Production
Programming & Scheduling).
• Service Parts – Must be submitted to Mopar.
4

What IS NOT a Claim for SEECS
Processing?
• Anything above RAW & FAB authorization for production
parts (ie, banks, build ahead for tool change). SEECS only
pays for claims within the 830 release high commitment.
Commercial agreements made outside of the 830 release high
commitment must be paid via SCRS.
• Temporary Substitution Allowance (TSA) – this should be
covered through a Change Notice (CN).
• Production Parts without a valid Purchase Order (PO).
• Advance Product Change Notices (APCN’s).
• F1 parts – this should go through Advanced Product
Procurement.
• Re-work charges on parts and/or tooling.
• Non-production parts.
• Tooling claims.

Responsibility of Supplier
Since all communication will be by electronic means via
Notepad, it is imperative that suppliers check the status of their
claims frequently. We suggest three times per week. The
supplier has ownership of this responsibility until the claim has
reached a status of “In Process”. Please be advised that if your
claim entered a status of “Hold” after submission, the claim may
be sent back to the supplier. At this point the status can change
to “Spin Edit” which means that we are asking for additional
information or clarification. The claim could remain in a “Hold”
status for an unspecified amount of time, which is why the
Notepad should be reviewed to determine the reason for return.
Monitoring of claims should continue until the claim has
reached the “In Process” Status. Additionally, all claims added
by the supplier (as “SPIN EDIT”) must be submitted (action code
“S”) within 10 days. All claims in SPIN EDIT beyond 10 days will
be deleted from the system. Prior to deletion, an e-mail will be
sent to you.

A finished part number is required for all claims. The quantity
available can be zero. Only one finished part per claim. Finished and
WIP are calculated against fab auth. Raw and Purchased are
calculated against raw auth.

SEECS Part List
This is a case where the supplier is requesting payment for purchased components only.

SEECS Notepad
When the claim is created, if there is anything else Chrysler should
know about the claim, it should be entered on the notepad. (ie., if you have
Extended authorization, state that comment in the notepad.)
Suppliers can you use notepad to monitor the status of the claim.
