Tooling Ownership
Tooling (to include
tooling, tooling prints, and process documentations) is to be the property of
Sensata (unless otherwise agreed). The tooling will remain in the suppliers
plant for processing future orders. Copies of tooling prints and process
documentation must be provided to Sensata prior to tool payment. The supplier
will also agree to provide necessary information to enable Sensata to complete
a UCC filing, establishing proof of ownership of tooling. Sensata may remove
the tooling at any time. Items may not be produced from the tooling for other
customers without written authorization from Sensata.
The supplier shall
keep tooling in a state of good repair and capable of producing parts to
Sensata requirements. All maintenance, repair, and/or replacement costs will be
assumed by the supplier.
