Mandatory Engineering Changes Sample Clauses
The Mandatory Engineering Changes clause requires that certain engineering modifications or updates must be implemented, typically as directed by a relevant authority or due to regulatory requirements. In practice, this clause obligates the contractor or supplier to carry out specified changes to designs, equipment, or processes, often within a set timeframe and sometimes regardless of cost implications. Its core function is to ensure compliance with updated standards or safety requirements, thereby minimizing risk and ensuring that the final product meets all necessary legal and technical obligations.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. 3.7.1 Maxim shall notify Supplier in writing of any Mandatory Engineering Change in the form of a MEC Order. Upon receipt of such MEC Order, Supplier shall promptly evaluate the impact thereof, including quality and Regulatory Compliance. Within [***] following the date of the MEC Order, Supplier shall present to Maxim, in writing, the results of Supplier’s evaluation, including all costs associated with implementing the MEC, including required material, resources and personnel. Supplier shall use reasonable efforts to complete the MEC in the time frame specified by Maxim in the applicable MEC Order. Supplier shall start implementing each MEC Order as specified in the Supplier’s response to the MEC Order within [***], subject to Supplier’s approval, provided that Maxim shall bear all extra costs incurred by such MEC Order or resulting from the implementation thereof.
3.7.2 Supplier shall use reasonable efforts to keep Maxim informed during the Term about any issue of which it becomes aware that may require a MEC.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. SSI or any of its Subsidiaries may issue, at its expense, upon notice to StorageTek but without any prior evaluation or approval by StorageTek, any engineering change it determines may be appropriate to remedy a system-down situation, to make any of the Products safe or to comply with legal obligations (a "MANDATORY ENGINEERING CHANGE"). SSI shall provide, at [*], any materials, parts or components required by the Mandatory Engineering Change and will [*] for each Mandatory Engineering Change installed by StorageTek or its Subsidiaries.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. If changes that may affect the form, fit, function, interface, reliability or serviceability of the Equipment (including interchangeability with previously purchased FRUs) are required in order to make the Equipment sold hereunder conform to the Specifications ("Mandatory Engineering Changes"), StorageTek shall first obtain IBM's approval. If it is mutually agreed that the change is to be made, StorageTek shall make the changes at no charge to IBM in all units of Equipment which are not yet delivered to IBM. If such changes are required to make delivered units of Equipment conform to those Specifications, they shall be supplied in the form of mandatory field change kits at no charge to IBM in accordance with the procedure set forth below. IBM shall supply labor to install, subject to Section 9.3h, all Mandatory Engineering Changes in delivered units of Equipment.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. 15.1 In the event that changes are required to make the Product(s) conform to safety/regulatory agency requirements ("Mandatory Engineering Changes"), NEI shall immediately implement the Mandatory Engineering Changes in new production of the Product(s)without charge to EMC.
15.2 NEI and EMC shall discuss and mutually agree upon one or more of the following remedies for implementing Mandatory Engineering Changes on previously delivered Product, including which party shall bear the costs of any such Mandatory Engineering Change, provided, however, that if the Products did not, or do not, conform to safety/regulatory agency requirements as such requirements existed on the date of delivery, all such changes shall be at no charge to EMC, including shipping and transportation costs. NEI shall use reasonable efforts to immediately implement the selected remedies.
15.2.1 EMC may request an RMA number and return the affected Product(s)to NEI or an authorized repair facility for repair or replacement.
15.2.2 EMC may request and NEI will ship Mandatory Engineering Change kits for Product(s). NEI shall provide EMC with installation instructions necessary to implement the Mandatory Engineering Changes at EMC's or EMC's customer's locations.
15.2.3 NEI may be asked to provide on-site technical assistance at the appropriate location to install the Mandatory Engineering Change.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. Mandatory Engineering Changes shall comprise the implementation of such mandatory alterations, adjustments, additions or modifications to the Software and/or Hardware and each constituent part thereof in accordance with the manufacturers specifications and as may otherwise be reasonably required.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. SUPPLIER may implement Mandatory Engineering Changes, and shall make all reasonable efforts to provide to VA LINUX either the revised specifications or a sample of the modified Product, at least three (3) months prior to such changes taking effect. In the event such changes require implementation within the three (3) month notice period to assure compliance with federal, state or local law or to substantially lessen health or safety risks, SUPPLIER shall promptly notify VA LINUX by FAX transmission or email. SUPPLIER may immediately cease production of affected Products pending VA LINUX's approval of such changes. SUPPLIER shall not make Mandatory Engineering Changes without VA LINUX's prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. VA LINUX and/or its Contract Manufacturer may cancel, without any liability, all or any pending Purchase Orders for Product that will incorporate a Mandatory Engineering Change that is not approved by VA LINUX.
Mandatory Engineering Changes. If changes that may affect the form, fit, function, interface, reliability or serviceability of the Equipment (including interchangeability with previously purchased FRUs) are required in order to make the Equipment sold hereunder conform to the Specifications ("Mandatory Engineering Changes"), StorageTek shall first obtain IBM's approval. If it is mutually agreed that the change is to be made, StorageTek shall make the changes at no charge to IBM in all units of Equipment which are not yet delivered to IBM. If such changes are required to make delivered units of Equipment conform to those Specifications, they shall be supplied in the form of mandatory field change kits at no charge to IBM in accordance with the procedure set forth below. IBM shall supply labor to install, subject to Section 9.3h, all Mandatory Engineering Changes in delivered units of Equipment. Field change kits resulting from Mandatory Engineering Changes described above will be administered as follows:
(1) StorageTek will promptly send an engineering change notice (ECN) to IBM prior to Delivery of the first shipment of Equipment that contains a Mandatory Engineering Change. IBM shall issue a no-charge purchase order for all mandatory field change kits that IBM desires. Such kits and any Equipment returned which are covered by the Mandatory ECNs shall be shipped freight prepaid by StorageTek, at no charge to IBM.
(2) StorageTek will ship the mandatory field change kits according to the schedule that is set forth in clause (4), below, and issue a no-charge invoice to IBM for all parts ordered and shipped as a part of the mandatory field change kits.
(3) Subject to the terms of Section 15.3, IBM will use reasonable efforts to see that repairable parts (displaced by field change kits) from Equipment
