Product Lifecycle

GCT’s Product Lifecycle Model (PLM) ensures that all processes relating to a change in status of any product are properly managed within the scope of GCT’s ISO 9001 Quality Management System.

In summary:

Each new product undergoes full investigation, assessment and qualification prior to release.
The product will then remain active for its natural life or until an end-of-life event occurs.
If a better alternative is available the product may be downgraded to Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND).
At the end of its life the product will follow the structured obsolescence path, with ample notice provided to existing and potential users.

Very occasionally it is necessary to recall a product, and for non-structured obsolescence to occur. Again all users of the product will be notified.
