That's TW Metals' Position.
Dear Customers, Vendors and Industry Partners,
The information and links in this section will help you to understand TW
Metals' position concerning DFARS regulations and related amendments. A recent
interpretation of DFARS may potentially disrupt the supply of certain critical
materials used in the manufacture of military aircraft. TW Metals has assumed a
leadership role in the identification and resolution of the issues that impact
our military customers, as well as their subcontractors and supplier base.
Our goals are simple:
-
TW Metals will continue to unconditionally comply with all industry, government
and customer requirements with 100% full compliance to the standards as
written.
-
Where there are apparent conflicts in interpreting the regulations, TW Metals
will continue to work within the approved structure to remedy the situation to
the benefit of all constituents.
-
TW Metals is committed to working with suppliers to provide qualified material
related to this new interpretation.
-
TW Metals will continue to share beneficial information with the industry at
large that aids in the expeditious and appropriate resolution of these issues.
Complex problems and a rapidly changing political and commercial environment
require companies of integrity, honesty and fortitude to proactively address
critically important issues to our industry. During these and other times you
can continue to count on TW Metals to do what it takes to be the best long
products, specialty metals supplier.
