About this file

This document is a Laboratory Inspection Information Request from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Middle East District. It requests information to assist in processing laboratory inspections for the purpose of validating the capability of laboratories to perform specific tests as required by contract with USACE.

The request covers information about the laboratory, including quality system details, accreditations, proficiency sample programs, inspections, and certified technicians. It includes checklists for various materials testing categories (aggregates, bituminous, concrete, masonry, soil) with specific ASTM test methods to be validated during the inspection. The information collected will be used to establish a list of TAM-Validated testing laboratories that USACE can utilize under a Blanket Purchase Agreement to provide construction testing services in the Jordan Area of Responsibility.
