General buying conditions
- ORDER
No order is valid unless it has been confirmed by a written and signed purchase order. Also, any order modification, whatever its kind, is valid if it has been confirmed by a written endorsement.
- DELIVERY
Each delivery must include a delivery note with the order number. If the delivery terms are not respected, we may cancel the entire order, without prior warning.
- QUALITY CONTROL
ALL THE SUPPLIES AND MATERIAL WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER CONTROL AND AGREEMENT OF OUR QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT If, during the machining or the use of a part or material we have to refuse your supply for some default reason attribuable to you, we will have to agree on the value of the engaged work until the moment of the default discovery.
- BILLIN
Each invoice must recall the order number. TWO COPIES of the invoices must be sent to our headquarters before the 5th of the month following the delivery; otherwise, the payment wil be postponed of one month.
- PAYMENT
Unless otherwise instructed, our payments are done at 90 days end of delivery month, on the 10th of the following month. In case of draft payment, it has to be sent to us at the acceptance, accompanied of an envelope with your address in order to avoid any delay or mistake when returned. THE PAYMENT WILL BE DONE ONLY AFTER RECEPTION OF ANALYSIS OR CONFORMITY CERTIFICATES, IF REQUIRED.
- PLANS AND TOOLINGS
THE DRAWINGS AND PLANS MUST BE SYSTEMATICALY RETURNED TO ACC AT DELIVERY. The templates or tooling done for us are AUTOMATICALLY OUR PROPERTY and can be claimed at any moment.
- CONTESTATION
Our general buying conditions take precedence over all other general sales conditions which could appear on the documents emanating from our suppliers. Any kind of dispute remains the exclusive competence of Clermont-Ferrand commercial court. The mere fact to execute partially or completly the order implicate for the supplier the plain and simple acceptance of all the printed, typed or handwritten clauses on the order.
