Clerical Errors: Wayne Wire Cloth Products Inc., reserves the right to correct all typographical or clerical errors, which may be present in the prices or specifications.
Acceptance and Pricing: This proposal is made for immediate acceptance and is void at our option unless accepted by you within seven (7) days from date of submission. ALL ORDERS MAY BE SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE TARIFFS IF ENANCTED. IF THIS TAKES PLACE, IT MAY AFFECT THE PRICES FOR YOUR PARTS ON EXISTING AND FUTURE ORDERS. Prices are predicated on producing at one time in the quantity quoted upon and shipping within thirty (30) days. Orders for smaller quantities or extended deliveries are subject to higher pricing. Shipments are subject to a variation of ten percent from quantity specified. Pricing pertains to the part number and revision named in the proposal. Any specification changes from the time of quote to actual order placement shall be subject to price. Due to large fluctuations in the raw material market, price and lead time may change at time of order.
Where specific processes or material requirements are not identified by our customer on a print specification or evaluation/revision request for quote, WWCPI will use “WWCPI identified best practices, processes and specifications.” Acceptance will remain in effect until such time as the customer notifies WWCPI that requirements have changed. Unless otherwise stated, the quote is based on a ONE piece, first article layout inspection at initial production ONLY. Parts requiring additional analysis over and above first article layout inspection or orders for new/revised parts requiring level three PPAP, etc. will incur additional fees for each occurrence.
