Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the contractor is responsible for the performance of all inpection requirements (examinations and test) as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in the contr

35、act or purchase order, the contractor may use his own or any other facilities suitable for the performance of the inspection requirements specified herein, unless disapproved by the Government. The Government reserves the right to perform any of the inspections set forth in this specification where

36、such inspections are deemed necessary to ensure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements. 4.1.1 PesDonslbll itv for ComDliance. All items shall meet all requirements of sections 3 and 5. The inspection set forth in this specification shall become a part of the contractors overall ins

37、pection system or quality program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of ensuring that all products or supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract. Sampling inspec

38、tion, as part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain confomance to requirements, however, this does not authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to accept defective material. 6 Licensed by Information

Records shall be subject to review by the Governmeit and shall include date,

40、 part, or characteristic identification, inspection results, and disposition of lot (accepted or rejected). Corrective action taken on noted defects shall be subject to approval by the Government. 4.1.3 wts and components. Component. and assemblies shall be inspected for comfonnance to requirements

41、of applicable drawings, specifications and standards. When applicable, inspection shall also be in accordance with Quality Assurance Provisions (QAPs). 4.2 Classification of inst3ections. The inspection requirements specified herein are classified as follows: a. First article inspections (see 4.3).

42、b. Quality conformance inspection (see 4.4). 1. Examination (see 4.4.2). 2. In-process examination (see 4.4.3). 3. Control test (see 4.4.4). 4.3 First article insDection. First article inspection shall be performed on preproduction or initial production samples as specified (see 6.2). Approval of th

43、e first article sample by the Government shall not relieve the contractor of the obligation to supply armor plates that are fully representative of those inspected as a first article sample. First article inspection shall be carried out on 4 test-sized samples having the dimensions specified in 3.3.

44、2.1. The contractor shall conduct all in-process examinations as specified in the written application inspection procedure (see 4.4.3), as well as visual examination for proper workmanship (see 4.4.2.1). The samples will then be forwarded to the test site designated by the acquisitioning activity (s

45、ee 6.2). The Government will test the ballistic samples against the requirements of 3.4.1 in accordance with 4.4.4.1 except that each first article sample must meet the V protection ballistic lilmit. Bonding pull test samples will be tested in accordance with ASTM D897. Any changes or deviation of t

46、he production units from the first article sample shall be subject to the approval of the contracting officer. 4.3.1 First article insDection failure. Failure of any first article sample to pass specified examinations or tests shall be cause for refusal by the Government to accept the product or con

47、duct additional inspections until the faults identified have been corrected o all armor plates produced. 4.4 Quality conformance insDection. 4.4.1 Samlina. 4.4.1.1 Lot formation.
