General Description of ChangesValued customer, with this product change notification, we want to inform you, that for our connectors listed below under part numbers we will expand the supply chain of the plated contacts by insourcing this manufacturing process into our new inhouse plating facility in Adelberg in addition to our current plating suppliers. The internal serial production shall start in April 2024. Affected Article Numbers and effective date you can find in the table below. The insourcing will be operated without part number change, will increase reliability of supply chain, and has no impact on form, fit or function of these products. Internal product and process approval process will be performed according to the VDA Matrix for product releases. The respective testing will be performed from the new production location and for customer requiring PPAP a PPAP level 1 with extended documentation on t plating capability maybe requested. We will deliver a updated PPAP before shipment of contacts plated in Adelberg. Background and motivation: With the acquisition of ERNI in September 2021, TE Connectivity decided to invest into a new 3.600 m2 building and plating lines on the properties of the ERNI plant in Adelberg, Germany. The facility expansion enables ERNI to enhance technical capabilities and increase the flexibility and reliability of the supply chain: - Improvement of innovation and optimization capability through proximity to product & process development - Increased capacity & flexibility as well as shortening of lead times through significantly reduced transport routes and the ability to react faster & consistently to changes in the supply chain - Direct influence on product quality and short control loops in close cooperation with quality, stamping and final assembly department on site.
