Kontron takes great care in the selection process of suppliers and components. Manufacturers are selected through an ISO-9001 vendor approval process that provides assurance that we are establishing a relationship with our vendors that is consistent with our goals. Components are selected based on features, market acceptance, and the approval of the vendor.
Despite a company's best efforts, the need to modify a product sometimes does arise. This may be the result of a component prematurely becoming obsolete, an enhancement that is desired by the market, or a correction to a problem. In the event that it is necessary to designate a product for End-Of-Life (EOL), Kontron has defined the following options.
1. Migration Options
2. Parallel Replacement
3. Upgrade Replacement
4. Alternative Replacement
5. Continuation of Supply
