The supplier should complete the QF-05 Supplier Self Assessment Audit Form (DOC-03818) to
demonstrate quality conformance and accept Avient’s Supplier Change Notification.
Avient
reserves the right to request the completion of the supplier assessment based upon quality
recommendation regardless of supplier accreditation status.
Evaluations are completed using the
Avient Supplier Risk Matrix which identifies “high-”, “medium-” and “low-risk” suppliers based
upon the following inputs: total business impact, supplier performance, and QMS profile
(certification and self-assessment completion).
