18、ECTION A.0 GENERAL INFORMATION Below is a report format with guidance that can be used in preparing a report compliant with this specification: Company Name Division/Department Location/ Address Report Title REPORT#: * PROGRAM#: * REPORTED BY: * REQUESTED BY: * APPROVED BY: * DATE: * REF. REPORTS: *
19、 *Required *Optional SUBJECT: The subject is the exact thing that is the focus of the test (usually a specific part or assembly) and a short, general description of what is to be done to it and why. It is initially completed by the requestor. ALWAYS review the subject to ensure that it reflects the
20、following: Part, assembly, coating system, etc. being tested Application (Functional system and Vehicle model) Type of test (mechanical, physical, chemical, etc.) and validation/verification activity it supports (DVP, PPAP, 8-D, etc) If the report is specific to 1 part number (PN), include the PN in
21、 the subject. OBJECT: This section is a brief statement 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 expec
22、ted to be answered in the conclusion section. It gives the performance requirements and acceptance criteria or the document (standard or specification) where they are found. Be Specific! Avoid vague, open-ended statements like “Determine Root Cause of Failure” or “Must meet ASTM B-117”. Test methods

24、istar, Inc. NOVEMBER 2017 Page 5 of 7 typically describe how to do a test and how to evaluate the result. They usually dont specify the actual requirement for your part or system. In addition: For supplier assigned tests in support of Navistar Engineering Programs, the test objectives will be define
25、d by mutual agreement prior to start of testing. After testing has started, modifications to the object statement require approval. Substantive changes to the object need to be agreed upon with the Requestor and/or Vehicle Engineering Manager as applicable. CONCLUSIONS: This section provides clear a
26、nd 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 conjecture. Keep conclu
27、sions brief and to the point. When performing a failure analysis, the first conclusion should describe the failure mode. 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. RECOMM
28、ENDATIONS: The section should include concise, specific, actionable suggestions or proposals evolving from failure analysis, and when the stated objective in other types of reports was not met. They should be specific in identifying what needs to be changed and the extent of the change proposed. Whe
29、n two or more recommendations are made, they may be sequentially numbered. REMARKS/BACKGROUND: This section may be split into multiple section headings. List any remarks which help the reader understand the report, but do not belong in other sections. Points to consider include: Altering the section
30、 heading to reflect the content Any 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 specific to the OBJECT. Test start and end d
31、ates. The location where test was performed. The name/title of person(s) performing the test work, if different from the report writer. The history of the SUBJECT, or other background information explaining the need for performance of the test work covered in the report. NUMBER: MPAPS P-9543 TITLE:

MATERIALS/PART#s/TEST VEHICLES/TEST ENGINES: This section provides a clear description of the material, part, or component being tested or analyzed. Alter the section heading to reflect the content. When applicable, this section includes a descripti
34、on of the test vehicles. When the tests involve a Navistar manufactured, fabricated, or designed part, a description of the part, the part number, including revision level and any modifications, the installation drawing number, including revision level and any modifications, and the quantity of part
35、s, 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 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
36、 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 vehicles lineset ticket shall be included as a table in the report. Relevant vehicle information such as model number, axle ratings, axle test
37、 weights, engine type, etc., should be noted. TEST EQUIPMENT / INSTRUMENTATION: The information 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 ide
38、ntified. The description of the test equipment should include model and serial numbers where 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 ac
39、curacy, bias, and calibration dates must be reported. METHOD: This section should include the 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
40、activities, the methods may be omitted. List the standards body, standard number, and standard 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 stand
41、ard, provide enough detail that the method can be duplicated at a later date. TEST/ANALYSIS RESULTS: .

Large tables (longer than half a page) are usually placed with figures and photographs at the end of the report, and should be labeled with a table number. F
44、ormatting of tables (borders, centering, column width, etc.) is flexible and should be based on readability. All tables should be captioned at the top of the table using the “Insert Caption” function within MS Word. Captions may include a text description of the data as required. All figures should
45、be captioned using the “Insert Caption” function within MS Word. Captions should include enough detail to provide a cursory understanding. Annotate the photo with arrows, text boxes, etc., to improve clarity. All tables and figures should be explicitly referenced within the text of the report. MATER
