We have added the following new "Q" clauses to our Supplier Portal:

• Q-54 - Furnished Property
• Q-55 - Counterfeit Material
• Q-56 - Security Requirements

Also, we have revised Q-36 and added a supplemental document, Contract Compliance & Awareness of Malpractice Prevention, to provide more information on this topic.

As always, CEPEDA purchase orders cite all necessary requirements by referencing a number of "Q" clauses at the end of the order. Visit the Supplier Portal to access the full text of those clauses. Remember, only the ones listed at the end of your purchase order are applicable.

If you have questions or difficulty accessing these and other resources on our website, please use the Contact Us page to let us know.
