EMERSON International and Domestic Logistics Routing

EMERSON International and Domestic Logistics-Routing

General Logistics Guidelines

Suppliers are required to comply with the logistics guidelines contained in this document. Suppliers are to use the mode and carrier specified by Emerson. Higher costs incurred due to non-compliance are the responsibility of the supplier.
Suppliers are expected to prepare goods and book shipment at the appropriate time in order to meet required-by dates. Suppliers are responsible for working with Emerson buyers to understand transit times and plan shipments accordingly. Higher costs due to expedited shipments needed to meet agreed-to required-by dates are the responsibility of the supplier.
Suppliers are responsible for the costs of re-routing shipments misdirected due to improper booking or labeling. Suppliers are responsible for the performance and compliance of any third-party warehouses or logistics providers employed by the supplier.
Use of account numbers provided within this guide is strictly limited to shipments to Emerson or third-parties only with express instruction. Suppliers are prohibited from sharing these account numbers with any third parties or using them for any other purpose.
Copies of invoice and packing slip are to be sent electronically to your Emerson buyer along with shipment tracking number as soon as booking is complete. Suppliers are responsible for ensuring that the quantity of goods shipped matches the packing list and commercial invoice. Suppliers are responsible for ensuring that goods are shipped in an undamaged condition.

Consolidation Guidelines – Overseas Suppliers
Suppliers are to have goods prepared such that they can meet required on-dock dates with a single bulk shipment made once per week. Our intent is to replace several smaller more expensive shipments with a single less expensive shipment that will be booked in the Emerson SCO portal. Exceptions can be made at our request for first article submission, quality exceptions, or to prevent a production stoppage. After confirming receipt of these instructions, any shipments made without evidence of a plant request will be charged back to your company.
If you have less than 100 lbs (45 kgs) to ship on your bulk shipment day, please contact the appropriate buyer/planner at the plant for authorization to ship via DHL Express. This should only be requested for orders due within two weeks. If orders are due more than two weeks in the future, they should be held to ship with the following week’s consolidation.
Work with your buyer to ensure that you can plan shipments effectively while meeting purchase order required dates. Specific questions regarding logistics plans may also be directed to Lauren Durrigan (Lauren.Durrigan@emerson.com) or Jeff Sims (Jeff.Sims@emerson.com)

Country of Origin
U.S. Customs regulations require, with limited exceptions, that all articles imported into the U.S. be properly identified as to country of origin and be so marked. In addition, this marking must be in a form such that it will reach the ultimate purchaser. The correct origin marking is necessary for both the proper calculation of duties payments and so the ultimate purchaser can make informed buying decisions.

1| The country of origin must be placed on the outer container in a legible, conspicuous, and permanent manner.
---|---
2| Definitions:

“Outer Container” means any container in which the imported products are packed in for transport such as a cardboard box, pail, crate, etc.

“Legible” means the marking can be read in normal light without undue strain.

“Conspicuous” means the consumer can find the marking easily in a cursory examination of the product.

“Permanent” means the marking must remain attached to the article until the ultimate consumer deliberately removes it. The nature of the article will dictate the method. Stickers, hang tags, and printing are all acceptable if the marking stays on the item through all the wholesale and retail levels of sale, until the “ultimate consumer” deliberately removes the marking.

Label Requirements

All packages must follow the Emerson standard label requirements, which include:

All exterior shipping packages must include at least 2 pallet labels which must be attached on opposite or adjacent sides (See Figure 1 below)
