General Requirements for the Performance of Component DevelopmentContracts
Preface
This Standard replaces Volkswagen Standard VW 01154 \"Development Conditions; General Re‐quirements\".
This standard is based on the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) volume \"VDAautomotive standard guideline – Component Requirement Specification: Module 1\" and describescomprehensive, general requirements for rendering services in the context of component develop‐ment.
Operating fluids (such as engine and transmission oils, brake fluids and coolants) constitute standardparts and as such are treated as components for this purpose. VDA Module 2 \"CRS structure forMechanical and E/E Components\" describes component-specific requirements for the developmentof parts, modules or components and is reproduced in the Component Performance Specificationstemplate used by the Volkswagen Group.
This Standard and the pertinent Component Performance Specifications (BT-LAH, German abbre‐viation) together define the basic scope of the contractor's performance obligations.Previous issues

General project specificationsObjectives
The contractor is responsible for compliance with all requirements defined in the BT-LAH and thereferenced documents.
In the course of a development project, the following development and production objectives, withregards to development and manufacturing, must be met for the entire scope of development inaccordance with the Group-wide requirements established by the purchaser:–Compliance with the deadline requirements as currently agreed.–Adherence to agreed cost targets
–Where two or more solutions are equivalent from a technical engineering perspective, develop‐
ment of the most cost-effective solution in overall economic terms (considering, e.g. recyclingand disposal) in agreement with the purchaser.
–Achievement of function and quality in accordance with the features defined and specified by the
purchaser
–Compliance with all legal and safety-relevant specifications of the markets and countries listed
in the BT-LAH
–Compliance with all relevant standards and guidelines
–Utilization of all knowledge acquired from the prototype tools and parts for purposes of the pro‐
duction tools and parts
–Use of all specified testing technologies and concepts for development and planning purposes–Ease of service and repair
The contractor is expected to make a major contribution to product and technology development aswell as to the continuous improvement of both the product itself and the related processes throughoutthe entire product life-cycle. This applies in particular with regard to:–Maximum customer value (serviceability)
–Optimization of factors influencing fuel consumption
–Weight
–Current consumption–Air resistance–Efficiency
–Rolling resistance
–Optimized environmental compatibility, also during production–Quality improvement
–Optimum ease of installation and removal (simple and uniform joining techniques as well as fluid
draining if necessary)
–Reduction of the number of variants of the same parts to an absolute minimum (complexity re‐
duction)Each component must always be considered in the context of the overall system, i.e. including allexterior, interior, adjacent and connecting parts.

2.2 Organization
The contractor must prepare a detailed project plan including at least the following:
–Work breakdown structure in conformity with the purchaser's project specifications.
Individual work packages must be defined for each field of activity and each phase of develop‐ment. Material and personnel resources must be allocated to each individual work package (seetime schedule section 3).
It must be possible to track the progress of each work package by means of the periodic projectreports. Each work package must be linked to a milestone and must contain criteria that deter‐mine when it has been successfully finished. Interdependencies between work packages mustbe identified and explained.
–Work responsibility structure naming the persons responsible in the project and identifying the
work packages to which they are assigned. The responsibilities of each individual must be iden‐tified and explained (e.g. by means of a project-specific organization chart). Sub-contractors mustalso be included.
–A contact list showing all persons identified in the work responsibility structure must also be
prepared.Development work is performed by Simultaneous Engineering Teams (SET). Active participation bythe contractor in the SE process is mandatory. The contractor and the purchaser will mutually agreeon the allocation of individual SET tasks.
In addition, the purchaser's and contractor's project managers can also hold project status meetingsas necessary, to assess project progress, time schedules, milestones, risks, etc.
The purchaser may also if necessary call a management steering meeting, which the contractor'ssenior management shall attend.2.2.1
Reviews during the development process
The contractor must perform internal reviews of the work product of each and every developmentphase (reviews of: requirements, design, trials/testing, hard- and software robustness, configurationmanagement, project follow-up, etc.).
The purchaser may at its discretion participate in the reviews which are explicitly product-related aswell as in the issuance of the review results (result protocols, follow-up reports).
All open issues resulting from the reviews shall be documented in the list of open issues.2.2.2
Risk management
The contractor must establish and maintain a risk management system for the duration of the project.The contractor must identify, analyze, and prioritize prospective project risks relating to technicalissues, time schedule, and costs.
The contractor must take action to avoid or minimize the identified risks.
The list of risks and the steps taken to mitigate them must both be updated and documented at regularintervals.
Page 6
VW 99000: 2012-03
2.2.3 Fault management
The contractor must establish and maintain a system for controlling and tracking fault processing forthe duration of the project .
This system must be supported by appropriate tools and take account of all faults encountered bythe purchaser or by the contractor.
The system must at a minimum provide for:–Unambiguously assignable fault IDs
–Fault priorities (conforming to the purchaser's fault priority classifications)
–A range of possible processing statuses (conforming to the purchaser's fault status classifica‐
tions)
–Process for coordinating fault prioritization and agreeing on mandatory deadlines for fault recti‐
ficationAll faults including their processing status, their causes, and the action taken in response must bedocumented in a database maintained by the purchaser for this purpose. This database also consti‐tutes the data source for all fault reports.
The contractor will receive access to the corresponding database via the B2B supplier platform incoordination with the purchaser.
Starting no later than the time of availability of testable basic samples (B-samples), the contractormust disclose the fault processing state in the form of a fault report on a weekly basis.
This fault report shall contain a detailed list of all faults and include at least the following information:–Fault ID
–Short description
–Detailed description and if necessary, references to additional documentation.–Creation date (date on which the fault occurred)–Person who detected the fault
–Version in which the fault occurred (development status)–Processing status–Fault priority
–Completion deadline and release in which the fault will be rectified–Cross-reference to the purchaser's fault ID
Fault rectification measures must be shown in the list of open issues.

2.3 Sub-contractor management
The contractor must notify the purchaser of the names of all of its subcontractors and all of its man‐ufacturing sites1).
If the sub-contractors yet to be determined, a corresponding outsourcing plan must be submitted.With its subcontractors, the contractor must enter into contractual agreements ensuring that they willmeet all requirements agreed between the contractor and the purchaser.
For each individual part required by the contractor for its own manufacturing and supply operations,the contractor must prepare a backup plan explaining what to do in the event a subcontractor is unableto deliver. The contractor must explain this plan to the purchaser if the latter so requests.
The contractor must ensure that its sub-contractors are quality capable, that they meet the requiredquality standards on an ongoing basis, and that they continuously improve upon this quality.Action to achieve assured subcontractor quality capability with regard to system, process, and productmust generally be taken in conjunction with any necessary quality capability improvement measuresand must be completed before the start of the pilot series.
The action to achieve assured quality capability is to be evidenced by:–QM systemDocumentation by certificate–ProcessDocumentation by audit or reference–ProductDocumentation by quality performance
Any audit must be performed by a qualified auditor (qualification according to VDA or comparableStandards).
The purchaser reserves the right to require the contractor to use subcontractors of the purchaser'schoosing.
The contractor is obliged to review the FMEAs submitted by its sub-contractors and to provide a finalreport on each FMEA to the purchaser. The purchaser is entitled to examine the FMEAs of anycontractor if necessary.
The contractor at all times remains responsible for the delivered final product and is the point ofcontact for the receiving entity in the Volkswagen Group.

2.4 Production process and product release
Each and every component, prior to the start of series delivery, must get through planning release(P-release), procurement release (B-release), design release (K-release) as well as Build SampleApproval (BMG) where required.
Completion: first-sample release by the purchaser's Quality Assurance Department.2.4.1
Planning release
A planning release is issued with respect to each component in accordance with the priority list agreedand stipulated in the BT-LAH.
The technical requirements for planning release are set forth in Part 1 of this series of Standards (seeVW 99000-1).2.4.2
Procurement release
A procurement release is issued with respect to each component in accordance with the priority listagreed and stipulated in the BT-LAH.
The technical requirements for procurement release are set forth in Part 2 of this series of Standards(see VW 99000-2).2.4.3
Design release
The design release is issued with respect to each component in accordance with the priority listagreed and stipulated in the BT-LAH.
The technical requirements for design release are set forth in Part 3 of this series of Standards (seeVW 99000-3).2.4.4
Build sample approval (BMG)
The purchaser determines whether a component is subject to build sample approval.
If build sample approval is required, this is noted on the drawing, in the master data list, or in thetechnical supply specifications.
The technical requirements for build sample approval are set forth in Part 4 of this series of Standards(see VW 99000-4).

ments indicated in the drawing or in the referenced documents.
–Correct in testing methodology - the test equipment and test parameters used must be specified
in each case. The suitability of the testing process must be proven upon request.
–Analyzable in technical respects - photographic documentation is generally required as to the
position, orientation, and numbering of the points where samples were taken or measurementsmade. Visual evaluations (structure, porosity, welding qualities, deformations, etc.) must be doc‐umented with photographs (specifying scale). The documentation may have to be expanded incertain cases.Where build sample approval is required, it is a condition precedent to first sample release (Grade≤3).
Completion: first-sample release by the purchaser's Quality Assurance Department.2.5
Legal stipulations
The parties shall treat as confidential all information received, knowledge acquired, and materialsdeveloped by or transferred to them in the course or on the occasion of their cooperation.
Information, knowledge, and materials are confidential not only if expressly designated by the partiesas such, but also where disclosure – especially publication – may potentially have negative conse‐quences.
This confidentiality obligation does not apply to information, knowledge, or materials that, at the timeof transfer, were already common knowledge or that were already known at least to the recipientparty. Furthermore, this confidentiality obligation does not apply to information, knowledge, or mate‐rials that, after transfer and without fault on the part of the receiving party, subsequently becomecommon knowledge or are disclosed by a third party in a legal fashion and without restrictions withrespect to confidentiality.
Materials that have been developed or transferred must be stored in a secure manner.They must not be provided to third parties for examination.
Should the party subject to confidentiality obligations permissibly delegate any of its contractual obli‐gations to sub-contractors, it shall in writing impose written confidentiality obligations on such sub‐contractors corresponding to the obligations set forth above.
The contractor is required to verify that all requirements in the BT-LAH and the referenced documentsare complete, free from contradiction, feasible, and reflect state-of-the-art technology.
The required assessment of the BT-LAH is not limited in scope to technical specifications. Rather thecontractor must include market conditions and requirements known to the contractor as well as otherrelevant knowledge.
In both the development and the production phase of project, during the warranty period the contractoris generally required to perform correction work and rectify faults free of charge in the event of anydefects.

VW 99000: 2012-03
5.3 5.3.1
Preventive quality management methods and risk anticipationFMEA
With respect to its scope of development and supply and the interfaces with other systems, the con‐tractor must prepare a product FMEA (system FMEA, design FMEA) and a process FMEA in accor‐dance with the VDA Guidelines currently in effect (VDA volume 4 \"Quality Assurance prior to SerialApplication\") and the purchaser's specifications (Formula Q \"Group Procurement Quality AssuranceGuidelines: Formula Q – Concrete, – New Parts Integral, – Capability\Integral: Qualification Program for New Parts; Procedures with Integrated Acceptance of 2-Day Pro‐duction\
The contractor will agree this process with the appropriate department or the designated individualin the purchaser's organization.
The FMEA subjects and their scope must be systematically derived, and if necessary, prioritized bythe contractor in agreement with the purchaser, taking into consideration overarching requirements(e.g. quality data, after-sales service requirements, etc.) and functions that are provided by the pur‐chaser.
The list of topics must be submitted to and agreed with the purchaser by the time the LH1/DE mile‐stone is reached or immediately after nomination, whichever occurs first.
After preparing the FMEA, the contractor must submit the contents and results to the purchaser foranalysis and acceptance/approval.
Following FMEA implementation, the progress status of the measures specified in the FMEA formmust be reported to the purchaser at regular intervals. In addition, all these measures must be trackedin the list of open issues.
The system and design FMEA must be finished and all production-relevant product features must bedefined at planning release. Implementation of the defined product design measures (measures thatneither impair product characteristics nor result in changes to production facilities or processes) anddocumentation of their effectiveness must be completed at product procurement release at the latest.The implementation of all other measures and the documentation of their effectiveness must becompleted by the start of the pilot series.
Prior to procurement release (procurement of tools and facilities), the process FMEA must be finishedand the resulting measures must be incorporated in the process and plant system planning. Imple‐mentation of the production and/or process measures derived from the FMEA and documentation oftheir effectiveness must be complete by the start of the pilot series.
The contractor is obligated to create and to transmit to the purchaser for procurement release or thePilot Series, no later than the end of the design project, a separate, final report to the FMEA docu‐mentation of the contractor's scope of development and supply. The purchaser thereby confirms thatit has implemented and documented all FMEA measures, that there is no need for further action tomeet either VDA requirements or the purchaser's specifications, and that the purchaser is in agree‐ment on these matters
If the contractor is a production supplier, the contractor is required to retain this documentation for15 years following the date of creation and to make it available upon request solely to the purchaseror third parties authorized by the purchaser for review and discussion.
Upon request, the contractor shall also make the FMEA analyses of its subcontractors available forreview and discussion. Final protocols on the subcontractors' FMEA documentation must be providedto the purchaser.
Page 23
VW 99000: 2012-03
If the contractor is acting solely as a development service provider, it must deliver the entire FMEAdocumentation to the purchaser upon project completion. A data transfer to the FMEA Tool SCIO ofPlato AG and with this to the FMEA database of the purchaser, must be ensured subsequent to prioragreement with the purchaser.
The respective FMEA must be updated to reflect product or process changes implemented afterFMEA acceptance/approval. Such changes must be clearly marked, indicating the date thereof, andagreed with the purchaser.5.3.2
DfMAS
A DfMAS analysis (Design for Manufacture, Assembly and Serviceability) supports a product designthat facilitates product manufacturing and assembly. The basic principles of the method are value-analytic thinking, the application of design checklists and other checklists, as well as the inclusion ofknow-how referring to manufacture and maintainability.
Design should be optimized for serviceability whenever the assembly process in manufacturing islikely to have a significant adverse impact on the serviceability requirements of after-sales service.The contractor may focus on the aspects it considers most important.
The purchaser reserves the right to require DfMAS analysis of designated scopes. The topics shouldpreferably be selected by a team using an appropriate selection procedure.
The DfMAS analysis must be completed by the styling decision (DE) or immediately after nomination.The results of the analysis must be provided to the purchaser upon its completion.5.3.3
Change Management for electronic assemblies
An overview concerning tests to be carried out for changes to a component for electronic assembliesmay be specified via a \"Delta Qualification Matrix\". This applies only to changes to the individualcomponents or to the manufacturing process of an already qualified electronic assembly. The matrixis not valid for changes of the electrical function.
A descriptive manual and the complete Qualification Matrix is available as the Manual \"QualificationMatrix for Electronic Assemblies\" in the B2B Supplier Platform and in the engineering data manage‐ment system (KVS).The contractor must determine, by means of the components and processes, the potentially occurringfailures (failure mode) for the electronic assembly and the resulting tests and qualifications for theindividual components (component, printed circuit board, additional materials) or for the assemblylevel by means of the current Delta Qualification Matrix. The required tests are to be confirmed indetail by the purchaser. All resulting documents must be handed in to the purchaser.
Page 24
VW 99000: 2012-03
5.3.4 Statistical tolerance analysis
Tolerance analysis (as per VW 01057) allows for securing function and appeal criteria early on whiletaking account of the tolerance influences. The project quality requirements influence the tolerancespecifications of the individual parts. The quality characteristics of the part and/or assembly must bedefined with regard to the overriding requirement of quality, the required function, and the intendedinstallation alignment, and must be validated by means of a statistical tolerance analysis. The result‐ing specifications for the part and/or assembly must be documented as project-specific functionaldimensions and adhered to in production. The results of the tolerance analysis will then in turn beincorporated into the purchaser's internal analyses and must therefore be consistently documentedin compliance with the tolerance analysis regulations (see B2B supplier platform under the captionF&E Services/Tolerance Analysis.
The purchaser reserves the right to require statistical tolerance analysis of additional scopes.The statistical tolerance analysis must be completed prior to planning release. Upon completion, theanalysis results as well as the catalog of project-specific functional dimensions must be provided tothe purchaser.5.4
Maturity level assurance in the supply chain
Corresponding to a risk classification as per VDA volume \"Maturity Level Assurance for New Parts\a maturity level assurance must be carried out in agreement with the purchaser pursuant to the above-referenced VDA volume.5.5
Special characteristics
Special characteristics are product characteristics or production process parameters that may havean effect on safety or compliance with regulatory provisions or the fit, the function, the performance,or the further processing of the product. The contractor will process special characteristics as per therequirements of VDA Volume Special Characteristics \"Process Description for Special Characteris‐tics\".
In this connection, VW 01110-1 applies for the classification of threaded joints. The Technical Guide‐line for Documentation (TLD) markings as per VW 01058 in drawings must be observed (see alsosection 4.4).
Page 25
VW 99000: 2012-03
6 Product safety, product liability
In its capacity as manufacturer, the purchaser has a legal obligation not to introduce products intothe stream of commerce unless they are safe. The law requires manufacturers to observe or trackthe products they have put in the stream of commerce and to recall these products if they are dis‐covered to be unsafe. If harm or damage is caused by a faulty product, there is liability on the part ofthe manufacturer of the overall product, and generally on the part of the manufacturer of the faultycomponent as well.
The contractor is liable for design defects even if they are not discovered until after acceptance/ap‐proval (release, build sample approval). Documentation submitted during the development processdoes not release the contractor from liability for the component and any consequential damages. Thecontractor is strictly liable (liability without fault) to the purchaser for damage the purchaser suffersby reason of legally required recall campaigns, by reason of action taken pursuant to good automotivepractice in coordination with the contractor, and by reason of third party damage claims, unless legalresponsibility for such damage is proven to rest with the purchaser.
Whether developer, supplier, or both, the contractor is required to notify the purchaser if there is anyindication that the vehicle components or accessories developed and/or supplied may have anysafety-relevant fault. Problems with regard the same or similar parts supplied by the contractor toother customers may also indicate the presence of reportable faults, especially where such problemshave led to internal safety reviews or inquiries from governmental agencies.
Manufacturing responsibility for the final product rests with the purchaser. As the manufacturer of thefinal product, it is up to the purchaser to decide how to proceed where it is directly or indirectly subjectto statutory reporting obligations vis-à-vis governmental agencies, where requests for information orother inquiries from such agencies directly or indirectly pertain to it, and where third parties directrequests for information or other inquiries to it or raise claims against it.
For the necessary, expeditious clarification of the factual circumstances, the contractor as developerand as contractor for product parts built into the final product is obligated to:
1.Immediately notify the purchaser of claims, requests for information, and inquiries addressed
directly to the contractor and2.At its own expense:
–provide complete documentation on the types and number of all parts that may be affected
and
–designate product-safety representatives to act as central point of contact and be at the
purchaser's disposal to assist in handling the above matters and any issues that may ariseregarding the safety of the products delivered and/or developed, and
3.agree with the purchaser on the additional action each is to take to address such matters.

Disassembly and assembly of components must be possible without using special tools or gages.The use of special tools requires the approval of the purchaser’s After-Sales Service department.Non-destructive and easy disassembly must be guaranteed throughout the service life of the vehiclefor components with high rates of replacement as well as for high-value components.Chemical screw retention must be avoided.
Identical components made by different sub-contractors must be 100% compatible. An exceptionapplies for designated parts if they are installed solely (100% installation of designated parts). If thecontractor uses both designated parts and its own parts in a component (mixed installation), thecontractor must ensure their mutual compatibility.
For every component and assembly, the contractor must create a disposal plan for workshop wastedisposal in agreement with the purchaser.
Further requirements must be taken from the BT-LAH, and for Audi also from the Audi after-salesservice basic principles requirements LAH.893.020 \"After-sales service basic requirements of AudiAG \".

11.2 Genuine parts
The contractor is required to ensure the supply of Genuine Parts in accordance with the specificationsdefined by the purchaser, which may be separately agreed upon in individual cases.
The requirements of the Performance Specifications LAH.DUM.000.K \"Performance Specificationsfor genuine parts of Volkswagen AG,\" apply or they apply to the extent individually agreed by theparties in any individual case.
To help ensure long-term customer satisfaction and optimal market exhaustion, account must betaken of the following requirements:
–A diversity of variations must be avoided to the extent possible.
–The contractor must ensure a qualified change service for Genuine Parts documentation. This
documentation must contain technical information, (for example, engineering drawings), infor‐mation on compatibility, and precise information on application.
–The Genuine Parts scope (disassembly level) is defined by the purchaser (cooperatively by the
departments of Genuine Parts, Design Engineering, Quality Assurance and After-Sales Service)in consultation with the contractor.
–If repair is not readily possible using the available individual parts of a module, other repair so‐
lutions must be developed at the same time.
–The contractor must ensure the supply of Genuine Parts for 15 years after the end of production.
The various concepts must be agreed upon between purchaser and contractor.
–For parts quantities for which an exchange program currently exists, reprocessing is to be en‐
sured or coordinated with the purchaser in the individual case.12
Standard parts and multi-use parts
Standard and multi-use parts are to be used for all new projects in accordance with VW 60000 \"VariantReduction for Fasteners; VRV Catalog\".
If the parts spectrum is not yet specified in this catalog, all parts used must be exclusively from theVolkswagen Group Standard Parts Management System (NVS).
For parts with limited release, consultation with the departmental representatives of the purchaser isrequired.
If the purchaser does not provide a 3-D part model of a standard part, the contractor must create acorresponding 3-D part model after consultation with the purchaser's Standards department, whichit must then place in the KVS temporary file area and use.
The requirements specified in VW 60457 apply to mechanical fasteners.

Requirements for tools and partsTools
Test tools and prototype tools
Test tools and prototype tools must be prepared in agreement with the purchaser prior to manufactureof the production tools and parallel to the design steps described. These tools must be updated inagreement with the purchaser to match the latest configuration if the purchaser so requests.A written order from the purchaser is required for all prototype tools before they are manufactured.This applies as well for any prototype tools for which compensation is not included in the agreed priceif additional payment for such tools is desired.
Using the prototype tools, the contractor must fabricate the test parts and prototype parts requiredby the purchaser. The costs of parts and tools must be specified in the contractor’s price quotationand are subject to negotiation. If required by the purchaser, test tools must be designed in a way thatpermits conclusions to be drawn regarding the design of the production tools.
The incorporation of reasonable single part checks or ASSY checks (such as grid lines) must beagreed with the purchaser's Design Engineering department.
Prototype and pre-production tools shall not be scrapped without the purchaser's written consent andonly after an appropriate period of time has elapsed following the start of production or after the lastparts delivery, at the purchaser's discretion.13.1.2
Ownership of test tools, prototype tools, and production tools
The purchaser holds title to all test and standard-production tools unless the contract otherwise pro‐vides.
Tools owned by the purchaser under the term of the contract must be marked as provided inVW 34022.
Copies of delivery notes that have been signed and completely filled out or copies of other equivalentdocuments (such as joint acceptance protocols) are required in order to invoice test tools and pro‐totype tools.13.1.3
Verification of suitability
Suitability is basically to be verified for production tools which are the property of the purchaser ac‐cording to contract.
Suitability is shown by:
–Disclosure of the tool performance specifications;
–Simulation of the manufacturing process via conventional simulation processes such as for ex‐
ample, Moldflow, Magma, Autoform, Pam-Stamp, etc.The documentation of the simulation must be done in the German or English language.
The obligation to carry out the simulation of the manufacturing process may be canceled in consul‐tation with the purchaser's design engineering or the parts purchasing management where there isa founded objection.

13.2 Test and prototype parts
Manufacturing, quality check and delivery as specified in the Prototype parts \"Supplier Manual forPrototype Parts\"
If the same contractor supplies prototype parts to different brands, the requirements in the appropriatebrand-specific Appendix to the Supplier Manual for Prototype Parts must be complied with for eachbrand.
The contractor's contractual obligations as a rule include manufacturing and managing the test partsand prototype parts. Unit quantities and delivery deadlines are fixed by the purchaser in the RFQdocuments or at contract award.
Test parts and prototype parts must be manufactured in batches. Batch sizes must be agreed uponwith the purchaser.
A written order from the purchaser is required for all test parts and prototype parts before they aremanufactured.
This applies as well for any test parts or prototype parts for which compensation is not included inthe agreed price if additional payment for such parts is desired.
Components that cannot sustain the stresses required by the specifications and are intended only todemonstrate the design principle, are to be designated with a sticker marked \"Design Principle Sam‐ple\".
