Our Committment to Quality

Northwest UAV is committed to building strong and long-term partnerships with our suppliers. The Supplier Quality Requirements document provides instructions and guidance to ensure that products and services comply with and meet or exceed expectations. Northwest UAV suppliers must have a documented Quality Management System (QMS). We depend on our Supplier's input and product expertise to assist Northwest UAV in delivering our promise to build the industry's most reliable, dependable, and cost-effective UAS systems.

Our most successful suppliers are those with written pricing, performance agreements, and sound warranty programs. Unwritten or verbal contracts are unacceptable.

Suppliers may visit Northwest UAV ONLY if specifically requested to do so or by a scheduled. We are an ITAR secure facility, and a NWUAV ITAR Visitor Verification Form must be completed and emailed prior to arriving at the facility. Citizenship (ID) must be presented and is required to visit.

If a Northwest UAV department requests a proposal for merchandise or services, we must submit a copy with your response(s) to the Purchasing Department.

If a supplier or vendor receives a Northwest UAV Purchase Order that includes FAR 52.211-15, which calls out a Defense Priorities and Allocations System Rating (DPAS), or if the PO calls out a DPAS Rating designation as delineated under 15 CFR 700, Supplier's signature on this PO also represents Supplier acceptance of each rated order.
