Instructions 1. Send this form to selected supplier. INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUPPLIER: and ask to complete the SUPPLIER KEY INFORMATION tab
and the self assessment and record the findings in the "Supplier" column on the AUDIT FORM tab. All sections must be filled-out,
regardless of applicability. Sections and questions that do not apply will be identified with the "N/A" label.

2. Upon return of the completed assessment, the Purchasing Manager and the Quality Manager review the data, request any
clarifications, and then, as applicable, prepares for the on-site evaluation.

3. The Purchasing Manager assembles an appropriate audit team, ideally consisting of representatives from, as required, Quality
Assurance, Design Engineering, Operations, and Purchasing, and schedules the on-site assessment.

4. The team evaluates the supplier by asking the questions on the tab Audit Form and scores each question based on the evidence
observed. Scoring is recorded in the "Jackson" column of the audit sheet in accordance with the Audit Scoring Definitions shown
below.

5. At the completion of the assessment, scores are compiled for both the individual sections of the audit and an overall result.
These results are shown in the tab Scoring Summary.

6. A corrective action sheet is included in the audit materials to address any deficiencies identified in the audit. The sheet can also
be used at the team's discrection to catalogue any other further reqired actions related to sourcing decisions. The Quality Manager
shall assigned Non-Conformance Reports and NCR numbers to each corrective action and will work with the Purchasing Manager to
achieve resolution.

7. Once the audit process is finished and this document is complete, a pdf copy will be forwarded to the supplier, the Jackson
Quality Manager and the Jackson Purchasing Manager. The master pdf copy will be maintained on the Jackson Purchasing Server in
the SUPPLIER ASSESSMENT folder. File name should be set in the following format: Supplier Name - "Audit" - Completed Date.pdf.
Records shall be maintained in accordance with JP-QA-02, Control of Records Procedure.
