INCUBATION SERVICE TYPES FULLY INCUBATED ELEVATOR This type of client utilizes all Naglreiter’s service types including creation and maintenance of the client’s quality system, full Initial Equipment Access and Use, and Workforce Services for all departments. This is the highest level of service Naglreiter provides where the client’s company is created and administered fully in Naglreiter’s facility and utilizing Naglreiter’s associates. The client remains the spec developer and manufacturer, but all certified activity is conducted in the Naglreiter facility utilizing Naglreiter associates for as much of the activity as the client needs. Defining characteristics for a fully incubated company:
◼ Legal Spec developer - client ◼ Legal Manufacturer - client ◼ Location of services - Naglreiter ◼ Type of Budget – COP (Company Operating Plan) ◼ Workforce Services – All levels and departments ◼ System A&U – At least one INI ◼ EQMT A&U - At least one INI ◼ Which QMS/BIZ - Client (Created/Administered by Naglreiter)
PARTIALLY INCUBATED ELEVATOR (SPEC DEVELOPER) This type of client has development projects that may require systems, equipment and workforce services, but at a lower level than a fully incubated client. The client is the spec developer and manufacturer and the client company is not being fully created or maintained by Naglreiter. The client company is only partially incubated for the purposes of running a development project. Development projects are conducted either in the client’s own quality system (administered by them that Naglreiter associates work within) or in the Naglreiter QMS. The client will not be provided with its own quality system. The client will be provided with the equipment services, but all annual EQMT requirements are conducted under the Naglreiter system. The EQMT access and use requirement is reduced. Defining characteristics for a partially incubated (spec developer) company:
◼ Legal Spec developer - client ◼ Legal Manufacturer - client ◼ Location of services - Naglreiter ◼ Type of Budget – BGT (Project Budget) ◼ Workforce Services – Program management and below ◼ System A&U – No INI, only SUB ◼ EQMT A&U - No INI, only SUB ◼ Which QMS/BIZ – Client (we work in client system) or Naglreiter

PARTIALLY INCUBATED ELEVATOR (CONTRACT MANUFACTURER)
This type of client has contract manufacturing needs that may require systems, equipment and workforce services, but at a lower level than a fully incubated client. The client is the spec developer and manufacturer and the client company is not being fully created or maintained by Naglreiter. The client company is only partially incubated for the purposes of running manufacturing in the Naglreiter facility. The manufacturing activity is conducted either in the client’s own quality system (administered by them that Naglreiter associates work within) or in the Naglreiter QMS. The client will not be provided with its own quality system. The client will be provided with the equipment services, but all annual EQMT requirements are conducted under the Naglreiter system. The EQMT access and use requirement is reduced. Defining characteristics for a partially incubated (contract manufacturer) company:
◼ Legal Spec developer - client ◼ Legal Manufacturer - client ◼ Location of services - Naglreiter ◼ Type of Budget – BGT (Project Budget) ◼ Workforce Services – Program management and below ◼ System A&U – None (using Client’s QMS), or SUB (mfg at Naglreiter MFG under

NON-INCUBATED (TRADITIONAL CONSULTING) This type of client has product development needs that may require systems, and workforce services, but at a much lower level than a fully incubated client. The client is the spec developer and manufacturer and the client company is not being fully created or maintained by Naglreiter. The client company is not incubated at Naglreiter and any physical services are conducted at the client facility. The activity is conducted either in the client’s own quality system (administered by them that Naglreiter associates work within) or in the Naglreiter QMS.
