It is intended that by Phase 2 10K, unless otherwise authorized, accessories and trims for Buyer will be supplied mostly by nominated Supplier on the nominated list. Garment manufacturers that have accessories and trim productions within their own structures may use their own production under Buyer as long as they conform to Buyer standards. A Garment Nominated Supplier who is already supplying Buyer , and is using Accessory / Trims suppliers who are not on the enclosed list, must inform the appropriate buyer or merchandiser as soon as possible: Buyer will then carry out the proper technical audit of this supplier as soon as possible in order that the supplier may be approved for future use. A Garment Supplier proposing to introduce a potential Accessory / Trim supplier who is not on the approved list must inform Buyer about this supplier, and the reasons for proposing him. Buyer will then carry out the proper technical audit of the proposed company as soon as is possible

An Accessories Manual will be published within the following 5 months. Until that time, it is important that the Fabric Quality Manual is followed and abided by. Moreover, metal accessories that are “non ferrous” should be used as it is mentioned in memorandum DY.276 “Non Ferrous Trims- Metal Detector Usage” which is not included in the Fabric Quality Manual.
Since this is a new procedure, if there are any problems with nominated suppliers about Accessories and Trims during this transition period, Accessories and Trim Sourcing Department in BUYER should be informed about related problems. The Accessories and Trim Sourcing Department contact address
Garment suppliers and Accessory / Trims suppliers are mutually responsible for their bilateral commercial relations, even if they appear on Buyer ’s approved list.
The following points summarise the nature of the relationship between Garment Makers and Nominated suppliers of Accessories and Trims
Before accepting an order from Buyer , it is the garment maker’s responsibility to make contact with any recommended or nominated accessory / trim supplier. Agreement should be made regarding price, quality and delivery before the garment order is confirmed with Buyer .
The garment maker should give Buyer an assurance for quality and delivery after receiving relevant assurances from the supplier. If the garment maker cannot obtain written assurance from the supplier, Buyer Accessories Department should discuss with the supplier the reasons why a guarantee cannot be given, and should try to persuade the supplier to give the guarantee.
If an assurance cannot be given regarding compliance with Buyer ’s Quality Standard, then the supplier should state the standard he can achieve. This standard will be considered by Buyer ’s Assistant General Manager (Sourcing), and if he accepts, the stated standard should be agreed in writing between Buyer , the garment maker, and the supplier
If the Assistant General Manager (Sourcing) does NOT accept the supplier’s stated quality standard then another supplier must be found. If this cannot be done the order will be cancelled
Should accessories and/or trims fail the Buyer tests, and should the failure result in a cancellation of either the accessories or the garment order, Buyer will not be held liable for the accessories. This is an issue to be resolved between the garment maker and the supplier
The same applies to any cancellation of accessories / trims or garment orders caused by accessories shipment delay. The issue will be resolved between the garment maker and the recommended supplier
Buyer will undertake to monitor and audit the performance of accessory and trim suppliers on an ongoing basis. Buyer will also make efforts to support accessory and trim suppliers, identify their weak points, and offering advice for improvement. Before nominating an accessory or trim supplier Buyer ’s Accessories and Trims department should always obtain written confirmation that Buyer ’s quality standards will be met, that delivery timetables will be adhered to, and that the nominated accessory and trim suppliers will take full responsibility and cover any loss incurred by garment makers
Where a problem occurs of shipment or quality of an accessory or trim, Buyer will endeavor to use its good offices to persuade the supplier to cover any loss caused to the garment maker
Should it be found that an accessory or trim supplier does not meet his confirmed obligations regarding shipment date and quality, he will be removed from Buyer ’s list of approved suppliers
It must be noted that Buyer ’s recommendation to use a particular accessory or trim supplier does not necessarily mean it is compulsory to use that supplier. Should the garment maker prefer to use an alternative source, this might be acceptable, subject to the source :
Informing Accessories and Trims Department in writing of the alternative source
submitting samples of the required quality for testing to Buyer ’s standards
confirming that Buyer ’s required garment delivery can be met using the alternative source
showing that there is a price or quality or delivery or flexibility or other advantage in using the alternative source
