from the Tier 2, 3, etc., Suppliers. If the Service
Parts Buyer chooses to exercise this option, the
obligation for serviceability requirements remains
with the Tier 1 Supplier per General Motor’s
contract ‘General Terms and Conditions’. The Tier
1 supplier shall retain Service part shipping
responsibility until such time that the Supplier
change has been finalized.
In all cases the costs of the service part shall be
governed as specified in the General Motor’s
contract ‘General Terms and Conditions’. A
GM1804 cost breakdown sheet must be included
in the response to quotation package or provided

drawing of the part sufficient to
show the required GD&T/KPC
specifications. If there are no
dimensional validation
requirements (GD&T or KPCs) a
drawing is not required, and should
be so noted on the work order, and
subsequently 'NOGDT' recorded in
GPDS.
Callouts to individual components of
an assembly on the drawing should
be linked to a table or bill of material
on the drawing that lists the part
numbers (supplier and GM), part
names and quantities.
Comments
Supplier drawings containing any
notes or claims of proprietary
information will not be accepted by
GM. Any drawing sent to GM must
contain the GM part and drawing
number(s), work order, release level
and drawing date as recorded in
GPDS. Supplier part numbers may
be referenced on the drawing.
