1. The purpose of this section is to detail the work required to fulfill the First Article Testing component of this contract.

a. FAT shall be required of any contractor who has not undergone, completed and received FAT approval for the item purchased under this contract, and has produced it for the USAF within the last 60 months.

b. If a FAT is already undergoing with the government, a proof of current testing from the testing agency is required upon award and a certificate of FAT approval is required before shipment of final product.

2. This is an Air Force designated Critical Safety Item (CSI). All requests for waivers or deviations must be forwarded to the contracting officer for review and approval.

4. Due to the urgency of this requirement, the Delivery Period shall not be adjusted if a FAT is required.

Accordingly, given the stringent timeline considerations, if a vendor has not already completed a FAT on another contract, they may still be able to accomplish a FAT and compete for various CLINs on this contract under a compressed schedule, as long as the delivery requirements are satisfied for the proposed CLINs.

The timeline to conduct the FAT is as follows:

a. Government Review: NLT 30 calendar days

i. The first article shall be considered as having been provided to the government for FAT on the date that it arrives at 611 CES for testing. This begins the government review phase. If deficiencies are noted by the government, a list of such will be provided to the contractor for remedy. If resubmittal of first article is required, the government will be granted up to an additional 30 days for review.

b. Any return of a First Article for correction of deficiencies shall be at the contractor’s expense.

5. First Article Testing shall be conducted as follows:

a. Testing will be in accordance with applicable drawings, specifications and/or engineering instructions. The First Article offered shall be manufactured at the facilities in which production quantities are procured and produced under this contract.

b. Third Party Verification – The contractor shall be responsible for providing third party lab verification of all characteristics of the item to include all dimensions, materials, welds, hardware and components. These shall be verified by visual inspection, inspection of material certifications, inspection of welder’s certifications and inspection of shipment invoices.

Documentation of successful third party verification and any associated material testing reports and analysis shall be included with the First Article.

c. Form, Fit and Function Check – The contractor shall provide the First Article 611 CES for inspection. When submitting the First Article for government testing, a copy of the contract and all applicable drawings, specifications, engineering instructions, certifications and inspection sheets (to include all applicable data identified during third party verification) shall be provided. Additionally, First Article packaging must be clearly marked as “FIRST ARTICLE TEST EXHIBIT.” 611 CES shall perform a form, fit and function check verifying all operational aspects of the first article.

6. Approved and conditionally approved First Articles shall be retained by the government for use. Retention of this item will qualify as the first production item.

7. Deliver Government First Article to:
