A Cautionary Tale on Contract Flow Down Requirements

August 17, 2012

We received this article from one of our distributors this week. It highlights the troubles one company has found with representation about source of origin and use of foreign-made products where US products are specified. It seems as though enforcement of these provisions is expanding the issue and is gaining more political attention.

We encourage all of our customers to carefully review their contract language so that any and all product requirements are properly specified and conveyed to their suppliers. This assures you are receiving a compliant product.
