Vulcan Seals Call-Off Orders / Blanket Purchase Orders Policy
This policy applies to Call-Off Orders or Blanket Purchase Orders placed with your local Vulcan Seals entity. It outlines the procedures for the two types of Call-Off Orders:
- Call-Off with Supply Schedule
- Call-Off without Supply Schedule
General Guidelines
Vulcan Seals strongly prefers Call-Off Orders with a complete supply schedule to optimize supply chain management, deliver competitive pricing, and maintain stock availability in line with customer demands. This approach also helps avoid the need for pricing reviews.
- Minimum Call-Off Order Value: £1000 / €1250 / $1250.
- Minimum Batch Line Value: £200 / €250 / $250.
- Order Schedule: The Call-Off Order schedule should specify the quantity and delivery date for each batch, with a final dispatch date no later than 12 months from the date of the order.
- Amendments to Schedule: Requests to amend Call-Off Order schedules may be possible, but delays will only be accepted if the product has not been produced or is in production.
