- | Every quarter the [[start:posdes#supply_chain|Buyer]] will compare a list of individual shipping weights from the [[start:proddb|product database]] to the shipping weights in GP and make any corrections. | ||
- | ====== Prop 65 labeling Requirements ====== | ||
- | FIXME | ||
- | - [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] will notify Heng Feng of the DEHP finding for the blue polyester in the Pranzo. They are to provide test certificates from a third party vendor to prove compliance with our Phthalates protocol. [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] will place this item on QA hold (reserve order) until this has been resolved. If they cannot, we will require them to replace all remaining bags in stock and compensate for any labor involved in the resolution. He will try to find out from Intertek which PO this came from. We have 1,000 units on hand. | ||
- | - [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] will contact the OEHHA https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition-65 directly to get answers on labelling requirements for non-food items. We will not make any decisions or ship any Disney products from stock with a prop 65 warning until we have this information in writing. | ||
- | - [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] will get quotes from an expert in Prop 65 (lawyer) to review and update our testing protocol document. Once completed it will be sent with every PO. | ||
- | - [[start:as|Buyer]] is working on proposed boiler plate for purchase order terms and conditions which will link the protocol as a condition of accepting all purchase orders. | ||
- | - For all future testing for customers, unless otherwise specified in the customer’s own protocol, [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] will limit testing to the main elements of the item. For example: exterior main fabric, interior cooler lining, handles, any painted surfaces, metals, and surfaces directly in contact with food/drink (plates, mugs, containers etc.). Other than weight capacity tests for furniture, no performance tests will be performed without the customer requesting it and it being approved by management. We are trying to reduce the cost of testing insignificant component items such as grommets, invisible thread, inaccessible elements like insulation, or gears and hinges. | ||
- | - A memo will be drafted to all vendors about the BPA issue after we have the information from the OEHHA to all vendors, requiring disclosure of any materials/items that contain BPA and we will direct them on whether to label, replace the material, or if it is not necessary. EG. If all ABS contains BPA but because it is part of the copolymer and not leachable it may be GRAS and not need a label (Lego bricks) | ||
- | - [[start:ea|Quality Assurance Coordinator]] to schedule a follow meeting by July 20th with an update and to finalize action items. |
