The risks of non<strong>compliance</strong><br />
are costly<br />
Non<strong>compliance</strong> can jeopardize a<br />
company’s profits, market share<br />
<strong>and</strong> competitive position.<br />
Halted shipments can result when<br />
companies are unable to deliver<br />
complete or correct <strong>compliance</strong><br />
documents. Significant shipping<br />
delays can occur if companies fail<br />
to identify <strong>and</strong> document<br />
material attributes.<br />
Delays in the release of critical<br />
design changes can be caused<br />
by part obsolescence, part<br />
specification changes or the<br />
introduction of new suppliers.<br />
Lost competitive position can result<br />
if companies are unable to<br />
competitively bid on environmentally<br />
friendly contracts.<br />
The <strong>compliance</strong> requirements<br />
<strong>for</strong> individual market launches<br />
can be insufficiently validated if<br />
requirements are not fully<br />
captured or if the validation<br />
process can not effectively<br />
re-use existing documents<br />
<strong>and</strong> specifications.<br />
Excessive <strong>and</strong> obsolete inventory<br />
may need to be written off if a<br />
company’s value chain is not able<br />
to share <strong>and</strong> en<strong>for</strong>ce material<br />
consumption rules in a global<br />
manufacturing environment.<br />
