How a supplier tells customers about changes to a released product and about its discontinuance, following the public JEDEC approach: JESD46 for product change notices and JESD48 for product discontinuance notices. The flow decides whether a change needs a notice, prepares the supporting data, sends the notice to every affected customer, handles responses and sample requests, and implements the change or the last-time-buy only after the agreed notice period has run.
A proposed change or discontinuance is screened for its effect on customers, qualification data is planned, the notice is drafted and sent, customer responses are resolved, and the change is implemented after the notice period.
