| 09/07/2011 | To improve the flow down of the Build to Print (BTP) product information, future Purchase Orders (PO) will specify the data package information used to define the deliverable configuration of the product. This data Package includes the B/P and additional configuration data required to define the deliverable product. The data package is located in the Supplier Integration Tool (SIT) on the HBC Portal noted below. It includes engineering, tooling, and HBC routings. The end item dimensional configuration shall be supplied as defined in the noted HBC routing; which will not be per the blue print specification when an interim manufacturing configuration is required by HBC.
BTP Suppliers shall ensure they have access to the SIT and DDS. You can request access to these systems through your HBC Buyer. Suppliers with current access to the HBC Portal can access the SIT which does not require a Secure ID. DDS which does require a Secure ID is also accessible through the ‘Engineering Documents’ tab of the SIT.

| 07/19/2011 | To all Suppliers:
Due to the upcoming HBC system changes that will take place from July 27th - August 1st as described in the attached HBC Communication letter, it is very important that you perform a query of all open VRs/QNs via your “Quality Notification” access. The direct link to this feature is https://www.hawkerbeechcraft.com/supply_chain/quality_notification/ .
Please contact your HBC buyer for status updates regarding what is needed to process them on to completion. Please prioritize this effort and work with your buyer to resolve any issues that exist which are causing the VR to be held. It is critical to the transition process to complete as many VRs/QNs as possible by July 27th. Your help in accomplishing this is greatly appreciated.
In addition, if you currently have any urgent VRs please submit them via the web prior to July 27th. Please hold any new VR submittals that are not urgent until after August 1st.
Thanks,
Teri Barg |
