4.02d J-4. Contract Qualification TIP Example.pdf

This is a Test and Inspection Plan (TIP) template form (FDRMCSOP-130-111) used for federal maritime contracts to document inspection and testing activities throughout a project or vessel construction.

The TIP template is designed to capture detailed inspection and test records organized by work specification paragraph. For each inspection item, the form requires documentation of the location, date, time, inspection type, inspection description, and acceptance criteria. The template includes columns for recording the test/equipment serial number, calibration date, inspector identification (initials and MMAC designation), inspection results, date/time of inspection, and Engineering Technical Information (ETI) references. Each work specification paragraph section includes rows for multiple inspection items and provides space to identify whether FDMAC or FDMAC-G inspection is required. The instructions emphasize that the initial TIP must be reviewed and submitted to the SUPERVISOR prior to work commencement and updated as work proceeds, with provisions for documenting supervisor representative attendance and government notification. Supporting data for inspections requiring government notification must be available at the contractor location. The TIP must be maintained at a contractor location accessible to the job site and updated within one day of accomplishment or prior to subsequent tests/inspections. Key events that must be documented at minimum include undocking, PED, CSII, dock trials, fast cruise, sea trials, and availability completion.
