The Contractor’s PAT shall specify the individual PD attributes to be tested, and frequency or percentage for sampling. At a minimum, all PSPEC verification requirements, including procedures, sample size, and frequency, shall be met and documented in the PD and incorporated into the PAT procedures. If the Contractor’s proposed verification methods exceeds the

PSPEC requirements, then the improved verification methods shall be utilized as the PD baseline and within the PAT procedures. The Contractor shall conduct testing, which will ensure that the manufacturing processes, equipment, and procedures are effective, and that the PAT adequately addresses the performance requirements. Once the PAT is approved by the

Government, SBNVG units for each Delivery Order shall undergo the specified tests to ensure quality and performance. The main purpose of this event is to validate and verify that the PAT serves as a benchmark for Government approval. The PAT shall be conducted prior to the Supportability
