10. Lot Acceptance Test Requirements are: IAW latest government approved ATP

11. The contractor shall furnish a Lot Acceptance Test/Inspection Report in the following system(s): WAWF

CDRL: (DI-NDTI-80809B)

12. LOT ACCEPTANCE TEST: In the event of an end item failure, the contractor shall notify the PCO/ACO and Air Force Engineering Organization within 1 business day.

Air Force Engineering Organization: EBHJ Organization E-mail: alyson.weber.ctr@us.af.mil

13. In the event of test failure(s), a Failure Summary and Analysis Report with proposed corrective actions/recommendations is required. CDRL: (DI-SESS-80255B)

14. The age of the energetic materials and components (i.e. ALL explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics, cartridges, and/or initiators) used in the manufacture of these items or sub-components shall not exceed 24 months based on the original manufacturing date. All energetic materials and components must be traceable to the original DoD qualified manufacturer and compliant with the ITAR part 120 and 121 (http://www.pmddtc.state.gov/regulations_laws/itar.html).

15. Raw (non-blended) ingredients & materials used in blended/mixed energetic materials such as, but not limited to: fuels, oxidizers, binders, curatives, sensitizers, plasticizers, stabilizers etc., shall not exceed 24 months since date of manufacture and comply with original manufacture’s Specification or MIL-STD. The government may waive the energetic and constituent material requirements listed above or portions thereof, on a case-by-case basis (when acceptable to the government) provided the contractor furnishes all details of the reason for the variance and the age, lot numbers, traceability, and other pertinent information/ test data and Certificate of Analysis/ Conformance (COA/COC) of the subject materials or components. The variance shall be submitted as a RFV and may be subject to, but not limited to, conditions such as sensitivity testing, stabilizer and analysis and/or dehumidification at vendor’s cost; therefore, vendor must plan accordingly. RFV not required provided vendor has approved energetic material and constituent management and recertification plan approved by HAFB technical authority for this specific contract and contract is executed with materials in compliance with said plan. Recertification test data for materials shall be provided by vendor upon request at no additional charge to the government. All raw ingredients, materials and components must be traceable to the original DoD qualified manufacturer and compliant with the ITAR part 120 and 121.

16. Percussion primers shall have been certified /recertified by performing sensitivity (all-fire/no fire) and dud testing per applicable specification within the past 24 months unless they are Navy certified and have a 2-year certification. Primers shall be stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment and in a sealed container with desiccant from time of primer manufacturing, shipping, storage and through final installation in end item. All primers shall be X-rayed in top and side views for critical defects prior to use.

17. This item is designated as a Critical Safety Item (CSI). Documentation for critical characteristics may be found in the contract, TDP, assembly/inspection procedures or QALI. MRB approval authority shall be retained by government engineer. Other characteristics requiring inspection or special oversight from DCMA: Section E – Production LOT Test

18. The contractor is allowed to pre-select no more than 30% of the required production lot test samples per lot which have external cosmetic defects such as nicks, dings, scratches, paint blemishes, plating blemishes, and small burrs. These units can be used as pre-selected production lot test samples as long as the units do not create an interference with the test fixture. The selection of those samples shall be noted in a discrepancy report that shall identify the item part number, DODIC, contract, lot number, serial numbers of the pre-selected units, and the cosmetic defect of each serial number. DCMA shall be notified in advance by submission of the discrepancy report of the preselected production lot test samples with external cosmetic defects prior to submission of the production lot for random sample selection. LAT units preselected under this premise shall be noted in the Lot Acceptance Test Report.
