FUTEK Counterfeit Parts Prevention Program

FUTEK fully supports worldwide efforts to stop the proliferation of counterfeit parts of all kinds. The aim is to ensure that only genuine parts and materials are used in products that we manufacture. To this end, FUTEK only procures raw materials for our sensors from domestic sources or from DoD DFAR 225.872 approved international sources and requires certification of country of origin. Electronic components are always sourced directly from manufacturers or nationally recognized authorized distributors to prevent counterfeit parts from entering the supply chain. These requirements are passed down the supply chain to subcontractors and suppliers providing parts and materials to FUTEK and are subject to supplier audit. Drawings, specifications and purchase orders to vendors require that: “Electronic components must be sourced directly from manufacturers or nationally recognized authorized distributors to prevent counterfeit parts from entering the supply chain. Any deviation from this policy must be approved in advance by FUTEK. Conformance to this policy must be reflected on the Certificate of Conformance provided with each shipment.
