Material Review Authority Request Guidelines
for Boeing Houston Purchase Contracts |
When a supplier is not authorized Material Review Authority (MRA) by either the Boeing Houston contract or by the Supplier’s Quality Management System requirements, the supplier may request MRA as follows: |
The supplier contracts office shall submit a contract letter to the Boeing Houston Buyer named on the affected Boeing Houston Purchase Contract. The request shall include the Houston Purchase Contract Number and the supplier’s letter tracking number. In addition to the MRA letter, the supplier shall provide 1) the names and MRB Résumé’s of the supplier’s Quality and Engineering personnel expected to perform the MRB review activities, 2) the supplier’s current policies and procedures governing the supplier’s MRB process. |
Once received, the Boeing Program Quality and Engineering functions will review the information for adequacy for supplier performance of MRA. Upon completion of review, an approval and/or rejection letter will be issued by the Program QA function and provided to the Boeing buyer. Approvals will be provided via a Boeing Houston Purchase Contract change. |
