Buyer review checklist - Confirm the required warranty duration, coverage and start trigger against RFQ-700 rev A. - Obtain a revised written supplier quotation or identify each deviation for buyer decision. - Check whether other supplied contract terms or annexes modify the warranty. - Do not treat this BLOCKER classification as automatic supplier disqualification. - Review any unseen documents before finalising the assessment. # F. Limitation This checks statements in supplied text; it does not verify supplier capability, guarantee compliance or authorize award.
