| Depth of Penetration  | Definition |
| --- | --- |
| 0. No Penetration |   |
| 1. Low Penetration | Evaluation of customer feedback and assessment of the supplier's data and metrics, including reviewing a minimum set of information to assure compliance with requirements. |
| 2. Basic Penetration | Assessment of the supplier's processes, including daily or weekly involvement in processes / tasks to identify and resolved issue and assure product or process compliance. |
| 3. Intermediate Penetration | Task observation of the supplier's processes, including sampling a minimum set of product or process data to assure product or process compliance. |
| 4. In-Depth Penetration | In-depth observation of the supplier's processes, including independent assessments and detailed monitoring of the processes / tasks |
| 5. Total Penetration | In-line involvement with the supplier's  processes, including complete and independent evaluation as well as detailed participation in the processes / tasks. |
