Requirements catalogue for suppliers


Version 0.1

1.Introduction


1.1 General

This document is a catalogue of requirements for the further collaboration between the FALKE KGaA (subsequent FALKE) and their suppliers. It defines which information and data a supplier must provide to FAKLE, to support the internal processes and to guarantee a smooth receipt of goods.

FALKE checks incoming goods within 5 working days after delivery. Differences, which could not be found out during the goods receive will be posted by FALKE logistics towards the supplier. Differences, which are not in responsibility of FALKE must be taken over by the supplier.

Due to the high impact of this document for internal processes FALKE reserves itself the right to completely decline a consignment or to bill the efforts to the supplier if the requirements are not met willful or careless.

It’s the supplier’s duty to make sure that this information gets to all responsible positions within its organization. This is also mandatory for the whole supply chain.

2.2 Delivery vehicles

The delivery vehicle must be able to ramp, i.e. the loading area must be at least 2 m wide and at least 1 m away from the ground.

A minimum clearance of 10 cm must be maintained between the load and the door. This is required since this is the minimum support area for the unloading lamp on the loading area.

Side unloading is not possible, the vehicle must be unloaded on the back.

Third-party equipment should not block any FALKE, as this will hinder the smooth and efficient unloading process.



3. Freight and Accompanying Information


3.1 Notification

Information about the goods to be delivered must be submitted to the FALKE Group at the earliest possible date. Ideally, this is done via an electronic exchange format (EDI, etc.). Furthermore, the delivery note accompanying the consignment must be submitted in advance, bevor the delivery is arriving at its destination.

The transferred data must correspond exactly with the contents of the described transmission.

There are different ways for electronic exchange, which are agreed individually. Communication via EDI, via Excel / XML structures and a supplier portal are available.


3.2 Waybill

A shipment must always be assigned a freight letter. The consignment note must contain the following information:

- Vendor number (FALKE)
- Vendor name
- Address sender
- Addressee
- Included Order Numbers (FALKE)
- Number of pallets / packages
- Weight of the total transmission


3.3 Delivery Slip

Each consignment must be accompanied by one or more delivery notes. A delivery note must only refer to one order number, one purchase order can contain several delivery notes.

This delivery note must contain the following information (in any order):

  1. header information
  • - delivery receipt number
  • - tracking number
  • - FALKE Order number
  1. Position Information
  • - FALKE article number
  • - FALKE color number
  • - Description of the quality (in Nm)
  • - Net weight
  • - Number of coils / pieces etc.
  • - Conditioned weight (yarns)
  • - Part number / batch number
  • - Number of charge carriers (boxes)

As described in section 6.1 Notification, each delivery note must be electronically advised before receipt of the consignment.

Delivery notes must be affixed externally on the carton. A separate delivery note must be used for this purpose.


3.4 Carton labeling (yarns)

Each carton delivered must be individually labeled with a label. This label has the dimensions 16.2 x 11 cm and must contain at least the following information:

  1. carrier number
  2. charge
  3. FALKE item number
  4. FALKE color number
  5. Quality (bold and big)
  6. Number of coils
  7. Weight / coil
  8. Net quantity in KG

In the case of point 1, care must be taken that the number of each individual charge carrier is absolutely one-to-one (unambiguous), i.e. a numbering of 1 - n for each shipment is not permitted!
