DID_FATIP.pdf

This is a Data Item Description (DID) template for a Test/Inspection Report (DI-NDTI-80809B) used to document test and inspection results, findings, and analyses that enable government or contracting agencies to evaluate compliance with system requirements, performance objectives, specifications, and test/inspection plans. The DID is applicable to engineering (developmental), preliminary qualification, qualification, and acceptance testing and supersedes DI-NDTI-80809A and DI-MISC-80653.

The document provides comprehensive preparation instructions for contractors to follow when preparing test/inspection reports. Required report content includes: cover and title page information (report date, number, contractor identification, contract details, test type, item identification, test period, and requiring government activity); table of contents with section titles and illustration references; introduction section detailing specific test objectives, complete item identification (nomenclature, stock number, model/part/serial numbers, item type, applicable engineering changes, and manufacture date), and test/inspection requirements correlated to contractual requirements; summary of significant results, observations, conclusions, recommendations, proposed corrective actions, and identified deviations; and reference documents. The body of the report must include complete test equipment identification with calibration status and accuracy data, detailed description of physical setup and procedures, actual recorded data, test/inspection results with comparative matrices, conclusions distinguished between objective and subjective findings, and recommendations addressing item acceptability, additional testing needs, redesign requirements, and documentation changes. Three authentication certifications are required: confirmation that testing was performed in accordance with applicable plans and procedures with true and accurate results; identification of requirements not tested and their prior validation methods; and statement of item pass/fail status. Appendices should contain detailed data, drawings, photographs, and referenced documentation too voluminous for the main body. Contractor format is acceptable provided the required content and organization are maintained. The form is approved by OMB No. 0704-0188 with public release distribution approved.
