DI-NDTI-80809B_CDRL A002.pdf

This is a Data Item Description (DID) template that establishes the standardized format and content requirements for Test/Inspection Reports (DI-NDTI-80809B). The DID is applicable to engineering developmental testing, preliminary qualification testing, qualification testing, and acceptance testing activities and supersedes prior versions DI-NDTI-80809A and DI-MISC-80653. The document is approved for public release with unlimited distribution and is maintained by the U.S. Air Force Materiel Command (F/AFMC-DCJP) with an approval date of January 24, 1997.

The Test/Inspection Report must include comprehensive documentation organized into the following mandatory sections: cover page information (report date, number, contractor details, contract number, test type, item identification, test period, and security classification); table of contents; introduction containing test/inspection objectives and complete item identification; test/inspection requirements correlated to contractual requirements; and a detailed body section encompassing test equipment identification, facility installation and setup, procedures, recorded data, results and analysis, conclusions, and recommendations. The report body must provide matrices comparing achieved results against objectives, discussion of anomalies and discrepancies, identification of any deviations from design requirements, and recommendations addressing item acceptability (pass/fail), additional testing needs, redesign requirements, problem resolution, procedure improvements, item disposition, and documentation changes. Three authenticated certifications are required: verification that testing was performed in accordance with applicable plans and procedures with accurate results; identification of previously validated requirements not tested with validation methods employed; and final item acceptability determination. Appendices should contain voluminous test data, drawings, photographs, and referenced documentation not previously provided to the government.
