REPORTS: Hyperlink to related reports, delete if not used * - Filled out automatically using the “Get Workflow” macro found under the Add-Ins tab FINAL REPORT SUBJECT: The
23、subject is initially completed by the requestor. ALWAYS review the subject to ensure that it reflects the following: The subject should include a brief description of: Part, assembly, coating system, etc. being tested Application Type of test If the report is specific to one part number (PN), includ
24、e the PN in the subject. For engine components, include the development program (which may be different than the current support program number) and displacement. If changes to the subject text are made, make sure the subject in the WRTS gets updated to match. OBJECT: This section is a brief stateme
25、nt of the objectives expected to be achieved as a result of performance of the test/analysis. The object is initially completed by the requestor. ALWAYS review the object to ensure that it reflects the following: It is a statement of what is to be answered in the conclusion section. Acceptance crite

Suppliers are required to assume all paten
27、t liability. 2014 by Navistar, Inc. APRIL 2014 Page 5 of 10 In addition For supplier assigned tests in support of Navistar Engineering Programs, the test objectives will be defined by mutual agreement prior to start of testing. After testing has started, modifications to the object statement require
28、 approval. If changes to the object text are made, make sure the subject in the WRTS gets updated to match Substantive changes to the object of need to be agreed upon with the Requestor and/or VEM as applicable. Changes to OBJECT for WRTS driven by RVD will be reflected in RVD. CONCLUSIONS: This sec
29、tion provides clear and concise statement(s) of the conclusion(s) reached based on the test or analysis results. The conclusions must be responsive to all of the listed objectives of the test. The conclusions must be supported by information contained in the Results section and should not contain co
30、njecture. Keep conclusions brief and to the point. All Pyxis Concerns generated during testing and related to the Object statement get documented in the Conclusions Section. Pyxis Concerns should be hyperlinked. When performing a failure analysis, the first conclusion should describe the failure mod
31、e. Where two or more conclusions are reported, they shall be sequentially numbered. Conclusions ARE NOT a restatement of the results and often will not contain numerical data. RECOMMENDATIONS: The section provides a clear and concise statement of any suggestions, proposals, or changes recommended. T
32、hey should be specific in identifying what needs to be changed and the extent of the change proposed. All recommendations start with “Materials Engineering recommends”. When two or more recommendations are made, they may be sequentially numbered. Recommendations should be referenced and incorporated
33、 into a subsequent workflow (WRTS, Pyxis, etc). REMARKS/BACKGROUND: This section may be split into multiple headings as dictated by the specific investigation. List any remarks which help the reader understand the report, but do not belong in other sections. Points to consider include: Alter the hea
34、ding to reflect the content Deviations from the original test OBJECT with the reasons for the deviation. References to other sources of information bearing upon the conclusions or recommendations. Results, conclusions or observations which are not related to the SUBJECT. Test start and end dates. Lo
35、cation where test was performed. Name/Title of person(s) performing the test work, if different from the report writer.

36、ion from Corporate Technical Standards. Suppliers are required to assume all patent liability. 2014 by Navistar, Inc. APRIL 2014 Page 6 of 10 This section includes a history of the SUBJECT, or other background information contributing to an explanation of the need for performance of the test work co
37、vered by this report. Number the Remarks if it improves readability. Hyperlink to Pyxis concerns that were generated during the investigation that are not directly related to the object statement. MATERIALS/PART#s/TEST VEHICLES/TEST ENGINES: This section provides a clear description of the material,
38、 part, or component being tested or analyzed. Alter the heading to reflect the content. When applicable, this section includes a description of the test vehicles. When the tests involve a Navistar manufactured, fabricated, or designed part, a description of the part, the part number, including revis
39、ion level and any modifications, the installation drawing number, including revision level and any modifications, and the quantity of parts, should all be referenced in this section. The part supplier should also be noted, if known. If part or installation drawings do not exist, a drawing or sketch
40、of the part/installation may be included in the report. When the test involves a material instead of a part, a complete description of the material should be provided and the material supplier noted. When the test involves a vehicle(s), the vehicle should be identified by its VIN number and the vehi
41、cles lineset ticket shall be included as a table in the report. Relevant vehicle information such as model number, axle ratings, axle test weights, engine type, etc., should be noted. If appropriate, this section may contain a link to the OKTT document. TEST EQUIPMENT / INSTRUMENTATION: The informat
42、ion in this section will vary based on the type of report being written. For validation work (and other types as required), it should include: Equipment necessary to set up or to perform the test shall be identified. The description of the test equipment should include model and serial numbers where
43、 applicable. When load application devices such as air cylinders, hydraulic actuators, dead weights, etc., are used, the type of applicator and its load capacity or range should be noted and information on accuracy, bias, and calibration dates must be reported. METHOD: This section should include th
44、e standards that contain the test methods (as opposed to performance requirements) used during the investigation to directly answer questions posed in the OBJECT. If testing was performed in support of other activities, the methods may be omitted. List the standards body, standard number, and standa
45、rd title of all MPAPS, TMS, CEMS, ASTM, SAE, or other applicable specifications in tabular form. Make a note when test methods have been deviated from When test methods are not documented in a published standard, provide enough detail that the method can be duplicated at a later date.

47、istar, Inc. APRIL 2014 Page 7 of 10 TEST/ANALYSIS RESULTS: Individual test managers should develop a rough outline for how the RESULTS section should look. I like the subheadings as described below for use in Failure Analysis reports. General notes, which apply to all reports, include: Information i
48、n this section should be presented in a fashion that directly leads the reader to the stated conclusions. When necessary, include a Summary section to tie results together in support of your conclusion. Relatively short tables can appear in the text. Large tables (longer than half a page) are usually placed with the photographs at the end of the report
