DID_DI_NDTI_80809B_Test Report.pdf

This is a Data Item Description (DID) template document that establishes the format and content requirements for Test/Inspection Reports under federal contracts.

The DID, identified as DI-NDTI-80809B and approved January 24, 1990, is administered by the Office of Primary Responsibility (F/AFMC-DOP) and supersedes DI-NDTI-80809A and DI-MISC-80653. It applies to engineering developmental work, preliminary qualification, qualification, and acceptance testing activities. The report format is contractor-selectable, provided information is organized to facilitate presentation and understanding per the specified requirements.

Test/Inspection Reports must include: cover and title page information (report date, number, contractor details, contract information, test type, identification of tested item, test period, requiring government activity, and security classification); table of contents identifying major sections and illustrations; introduction containing test/inspection objectives and complete item identification with nomenclature, national stock number, model/part/serial numbers, and item type; test/inspection requirements with required parameters and performance/acceptance/environmental criteria; summary with significant results, observations, conclusions, corrective actions with schedules for failures, deviations from contract requirements, and simplified data tables; reference documents including prior test reports, procedures, certifications, and contractor file designations; body of report with test equipment identification, facility installation and setup, test procedures, results and analysis including recorded data and discussion of anomalies or failures, and conclusions distinguishing objective from subjective findings; and authentication certifications for test results, prior validation, and acceptability. Appendices may contain detailed test data, drawings, photographs, and referenced documentation too voluminous for the main report.
