SECTION C – CONFIGURATION CONTROL: SAE EIA-649 (NAVY STOCK CLASS 1377)

1. Configuration Control - The Contractor shall maintain the total equipment baseline configuration. For items of proprietary design, Contractor drawings showing the latest assembly configuration shall be provided to the Government in electronic format.

2. Variances – Requests for Variance (RFV) - RFVs shall be designated as Critical, Major, or Minor. The Contractor shall submit RFVs using RFV DD Form 1694 and shall include information as outlined in SAE EIA-649, Configuration Management Standard, and MIL-HDBK-61, Configuration Management Guidance, for additional guidance on preparation of RFVs.

Note: A copy of the required RFV Form DD Form 1694 is available at:

https://www.esd.whs.mil/Directives/forms/dd1500_1999/ Additional guidance for completion of RFV can be found at the Attachment “RFV Form DD1694 Example Only dated 03/31/2020”. This attachment is incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as if contained herein.

The Contractor's assigned RFV number shall use the following numbering format:

a. The last seven alpha-numeric characters of the contract number followed by a dash (-).

b. The letter "V", followed by consecutively assigned numeric characters beginning with 001.

Definitions of RFV Classifications: (See current SAE EIA 649 and MIL-HDBK-61, Configuration Management Guidance, for additional guidance on critical, major and minor classifications.)

Critical: Critical variances impact safety, health, environment, or other critical requirement. A departure from a requirement classified as critical in configuration documentation.

Major: Major variances have significant impacts such as performance or operational limits, structural strength, interchangeability, reliability, survivability, maintainability, durability of the item or repair parts, supportability, cost, effective use or operation, weight or size, or appearance. A departure from a requirement classified as major in configuration documentation.

Minor: Minor variances are issued when departure does not involve any of the factors listed for critical or major variance. Minor variances have little or no impact and are generally associated with non-functional factory defects that can be dispositioned locally as: “use as is” or “after suitable repair”. A departure from a requirement classified as minor in configuration documentation.

3. Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) - ECPs shall be designated as Major (Class I) or Minor (Class II).The Government will maintain configuration control and change authority for all modifications or changes affecting form, fit, function, or interface parameters of the end-item and its sub-assemblies. Minor (Class II) and Major (Class I) ECP changes shall be approved by the Navy Configuration Control Board (CCB) and technical approval authority prior to implementation. The DD Form 1692 is the preferred format for ECP submissions. ECPs may also be prepared in Contractor format, provided it fulfils the requirements of DD Form 1692, and shall include information outlined in SAE EIA-649 and MIL-HDBK-61, which provides additional guidance for preparation of ECPs.

ECPs submitted using DD Form 1692 shall use the following numbering format:

a. The last seven alpha-numeric characters of the contract number followed by a dash (-).

b. The letters "ECP", followed by consecutively assigned numeric characters beginning with 001.

Definitions of ECP Classifications: (See current SAE EIA 649 and MIL-HDBK-61 for additional guidance on Major (Class I) and Minor (Class II) classifications.)

Major (Class I):

a. A change that affects specified and approved requirements for product attributes, including safety, reliability, and supportability.

b. A change, after establishment of the product baseline, that affects compatibility with interfacing products, including such products as test equipment, support equipment, software, and products furnished by a customer or that affects one or more of the following:

- required calibration to the extent that product identification should be changed

- interchangeability or substitutability of replaceable products, assemblies, or components

- change to add a previously non-qualified supplier, where supplier selection is specified

- requires retrofit of delivered products

c. A change that affect the form, fit, and/or function, and/or requirements, performance, interoperability, supportability, maintainability, cost, safety, addition of a vendor, or a vendor moves facility and the item has not been qualified at that site.

Definitions of form, fit and/or function:

Form: the shape, external size, and marking which uniquely characterizes an item.

Fit: the ability of an item to physically interface or interconnect with and become an integral part of a higher level assembly.

Function: the action[s] that an item is designed to perform including performance, durability and safety.

The following are examples of Major (Class I) changes with regard to function

a. Change to energetic material

b. Change to component material or material properties

c. Change to electrical characteristics.

d. Change in ballistic performance.

Minor (Class II):

a. Affects configuration documentation (released design information), product or processes but does not affect

Major Change Criteria.

b. Changes that do not affect the form, fit, or function.

If the Navy technical approval authority does not approve the ECP submitted by the Contractor, then the Contractor is required to revert to the Government approved revision of the drawing per the approved product baseline or to the revision used in the prior lot accepted by the Government. The Government reserves the right to invoke First Article Testing (FAT) per paragraph 2 of “Section E-CAD/PAD Inspection and Acceptance”, or require the Contractor to undergo qualification testing.

4. Contractors do not have Material Review Board (MRB) authority. Authorization to accept “as-is”, rework, or repair any nonconformance is specifically retained by the Contracting Officer. The contractor's MRB shall not make any use "as-is", "rework" or “repair” disposition on any nonconformance, and the MRB recommendations shall be submitted per paragraph seven (7) below.

5. Rework and Repair are defined as follows:

a. Rework: The reprocessing of nonconforming material to make it conform completely to the drawings, specifications or contract requirements.

b. Repair: The reprocessing of nonconforming material in accordance with approved written procedures and operations to reduce, but not completely eliminate, the nonconformance. The purpose of repair is to bring nonconforming material into a usable condition. Repair is distinguished from rework in that the item after repair still does not completely conform to all of the applicable drawings, specifications or contract requirements.

6. Prior to submission of the lot to the Government for inspection and acceptance, all parts, subassemblies, and even the end item that undergo in-process screening for defects can be reworked under the direction of the contractor to ensure all parts meet the requirements of the Technical Data Package (TDP) and/or detailed specification.

If the contractor recommends, through an internal MRB, to process non-conforming parts, subassemblies, or the end item for use "as-is" or “repaired”, then the contractor will be required to submit a Request for Variance (RFV) to the Government for disposition. If a non-conformance is discovered, which results in a failure of the item to meet the requirements of the TDP or detailed specification after the lot has been presented to the Government, then the contractor will be required to provide to the Government documentation such as RFVs, Discrepancy Reports(DR) related to contractor's MRBs, and/or rework procedures used to correct the deficiency (if applicable). Rework of a lot to correct a deficiency after it has been presented to the Government may require the lot number and all the associated records to be changed, per the requirements of MIL-STD-1168.

7. The Contractor shall submit an electronic copy of any ECP or RFV to the Contracting Officer, Local DCMA QAR, and the technical activity below:

a. Local DCMA QAR

b. NAVSUP WSS Contracting Officer

c. NSWC IHEODTD CAD/PAD Division Acquisition Management Specialist (AMS)

8. Technical approval authority for RFVs and ECPs is NSWC IHEODTD

These units can be used as pre-selected production lot test samples as long as the defects do not create an interference with the form, fit, or function of the unit and/or test fixture. The selection of the production lot test samples shall be noted in a discrepancy report (DR) identifying the item part number, DODIC, contract, lot number, serial numbers of the pre-selected units, and the cosmetic defects of each serial number. A copy of the DR shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer. A second copy of the DR shall be submitted to DCMA/QAR when presenting the production lot for random selection of the remaining lot test samples as stated in paragraph 4 below. The contractor shall also annotate the DR number in the remarks section of the ADC for the applicable production lot. This clause is only applicable to the production lot test samples and the external cosmetic defects mentioned above. If additional units with minor external cosmetic defects are part of the deliverable lot and the contractor would like for the government to accept those units "as is", then a RFV shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer for the determination of disposition for those non-compliant deliverable units.

4. The production lot(s) must be manufactured and presented to the Government Quality Assurance Representative (QAR) with all applicable documentation. The documentation (WAWF-RRs and Ammunition Data Card printed from WARP) accompanying the production lot shall contain the contract number, item, lot number identification, DODIC, NSN, and serial numbers. The production lot test samples shall be selected, at random(unless following the exception noted in paragraph 3 above), from each production lot, by the QAR. The retains are considered part of the production lot test samples and shall also be selected, at random, from each production lot, by the QAR and identified as such.

NOTE: Sample units removed for testing from different lots shall not be commingled.

5. After the selection of the production lot samples and all required data, the samples shall be furnished and shipped by the Contractor to the testing activity set forth in Section F within 15 calendar days of selection at no additional charge to the Government. The production lot test samples shall not be considered received until all data necessary to evaluate the samples is received. (This data includes, but is not limited to, radiographic requirements specified in Section E - Inspection and Acceptance, Ammunition Data Card from WARP, and WAWF-RR.)

6. The following activity will conduct production lot testing: Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division

7. Disposition of Production Lot Test Samples -

The production lot samples might be subject to Non-Destructive Test (NDT) depending on the requirements delineated by the TDP and/or item specification specified in section C.

NOTE: If a test failure occurs during the Non-Destructive Test (NDT) phase of LAT, the engineering activity is authorize to continue with the remainder NDT series prior halting test (i.e. resistance failure and leak test still remains).

The production lot test samples are also subjected to destructive testing. These units cannot be used to meet fleet support requirements. Samples tested will not be returned to the Contractor. However, in the event there is a failure, or samples are rejected for some other reason, the Contractor may request the return of the affected samples and/or the entire production lot samples for disposition/examination and/or investigation. The written request to return rejected samples and/or the entire production lot samples shall be received by the Contracting Officer within fifteen (15) calendar days after notification of rejection. Any samples returned will be at the Contractor's expense.

8. All other contractual requirements, such as acceptance, shipment, and payment will not be accomplished until the production lot test samples have been tested, approved, and released for service use. The Contractor shall not make shipment of the production lot until receipt of written notification of approval by the Contracting Officer and final approval of the Material Inspection Receiving Report in Wide Area Workflow (WAWF).

9. The only valid and contractually binding notification of production lot approval, conditional approval, or disapproval shall be in writing and issued by the Contracting Officer. This notification shall be made to the Contractor, within sixty (60) calendar days, after receipt of the production lot test samples, all required CDRLs and all necessary data by the Government Testing Activity. Any CDRLs provided by the Contractor deemed to be inaccurate and/or incomplete after engineering review will automatically reset the notification of production lot approval, conditional approval, or disapproval. Upon receipt of written notice accepting a production lot, shipment shall be made as soon as possible and no later than fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of such notice.

a. Any notice of approval or conditional approval shall not relieve the Contractor from complying with all requirements of the specifications and all other terms and conditions of this contract.

b. A notice of conditional approval shall state any further action required by the Contractor.

c. A notice of disapproval shall cite reasons for such. In the event of a failure, the Contractor shall submit a

Failure Analysis and Corrective Action Report (DD Form 1423, sequence number, A002) with all associated costs and expenses to be borne solely by the Contractor. “Failure” is defined as follows:

i. Any of the test samples failing to meet the requirements of the specification and/or drawing,

ii. Any of the test samples fracturing and/or exhibiting any cracks post-firing, unless specifically designed to do so,

iii. A non-ignition or failure to fire.

10. At a minimum, the following is required:

a. Failure date

b. Failed part number (e.g. national stock number (NSN), logistics control number, work unit code)

c. Test or mission being performed when the failure occurred(LAT/FAT)

d. Failure symptoms and description of detection or diagnosis methods (e.g. Built In Test)

e. Failure effects (e.g. none, degradation, abort)

f. Repair action (e.g. remove/replace)

g. Failure mode description

h. Failure mechanism/cause of failure

i. Contributing factors, including multiple factor interactions, or secondary effects of the failure

j. Corrective action required to mitigate the failure mode, including:

- Identification of the failure mode

- The recommended process or process control changes, when the failure cause is due to workmanship defects -Proposals for retrofit of all equipment already delivered or assembled, including recommended effectivity, in accordance with the contract

- Disposition of all defective material and material rendered obsolete because of any necessary redesign, to assure their exclusion from production items -Identification of previous functional and environmental qualification tests, if any, invalidated by the corrective action changes and recommendation of those tests that should be repeated, in accordance with the terms of the contract, to demonstrate the corrective action’s effectiveness.

11. If the production lot test sample is disapproved by the Government, the Contractor may be required, at the option of the Government and at the Contractor’s sole cost and expense, to submit an additional production lot test sample(s) for test. After each notification by the Contracting Officer to submit an additional production lot test sample(s), the Contractor shall, at no additional cost to the Government, make any necessary changes, modifications, or repairs to the production lot or the Government QAR may be required to select another test sample for testing. Such additional test sample(s) shall be furnished to the Government under the terms and conditions and within the time specified in the notification. The Government shall take action on this test sample(s) within sixty

(60) calendar days after receipt. The cost of each additional approval, and all costs and expenses related to such test(s) shall be borne solely by the Contractor.

Retest Cost for Item 0001 is: $31,750.00. (NOTE: Test costs are based on actual rates in effect at the time of issuance of the solicitation. In the event of a test failure, actual cost at the time of retest will be assessed.) The Government reserves the right to require an equitable decrease of the contract price for any extension of the delivery schedule necessitated by additional tests.

12. If the Contractor fails to deliver any production lot test sample(s) within the time or times specified, or if the Contracting Officer disapproves any of the required CDRLs, the contract may be deemed to have failed to make delivery within the meaning of the "Default" clause of this contract, and this contract may be subject to termination for default. In such an event, failure of the Government to terminate this contract for default shall not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to meet the delivery schedule for production quantities.

a. Test technique information for ALL radiographs is specified in section 6 of ASTM E1742, refer to Contract Data Requirement List (CDRL) DD Form 1423 sequence number A003. The radiographic images shall display a number of units representative of a production lot. Units shall be positioned on the radiographic plate at the areas of minimum and maximum geometric distortion.

9. Notification of approval of the RTT shall be provided via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). Written notification of rejection will be provided by the Contracting Officer. Approval of the RTT must be received prior to performing radiographic inspection of the production lot units. The Contractor shall then follow the approved technique to produce subsequent radiographs in accordance with the approved RTT. Any change in the approved radiographic technique or equipment requires submittal and approval of new RTT at the Contractor's expense.

a. There is hereby created an option for the Government to waive the requirement for submission of a RTT. The Contractor may only request a waiver for the submission of the RTT as long as the Cognizant Engineering Organization (CEO), which is NSWC IHEODTD, has an approved RTT on file from a previous contract, and the x-ray equipment or RTT has not changed since the referenced contract. The following information shall be furnished by the Contractor when submitting the waiver for RTT:

Approved by ____________________________ Date of approval __________________ Contract number under which RTT was approved ________________________________

b. If the submission of the RTT is waived, the previously approved technique shall apply to the contract.

c. If the Contractor requests waiver of submission of the RTT after time of award, an offer of adequate consideration shall accompany the request.In order to fulfill contractual requirements, the Contractor must submit acceptable radiographs. Radiographs should be reviewed by a Level II or Level III certified radiographer in accordance with NAS 410. A radiographic report, including a list of serial numbers inspected, serial numbers rejected, and reason(s) for rejection will be submitted with the radiographs.

Radiographs not conforming to the requirements specified herein will not be accepted by NSWC IHEODTD. Disposition of non-conforming radiographs will be by mutual agreement of the parties.

10. In order to fulfill contractual requirements, the Contractor shall submit acceptable radiographs for each Contract Line Item. Radiographs shall be of an image quality to effectively inspect for acceptable assembly of components and defects. Radiographs should be reviewed by a Level II or Level III certified radiographer in accordance with NAS 410. Radiographs not conforming to the requirements specified herein will not be accepted by NSWC IHEODTD. Disposition of non-conforming radiographs will be by mutual agreement of the parties.

11. Representative Quality Indicators (RQI) are recommended to be used on radiographic film or digital images for all CAD/PAD devices. The RQI (also known as a defect standard) contains a known defect (i.e. missing explosive charge, missing O-rings, etc.) placed next to a good unit for comparison, to aid in interpretation. Radiographic test technique shall include RQI to be used and RQI placement.

12. The Contractor shall submit radiographic film as marked (X) below:

X-RAYS ( per applicable spec )

N-RAYS ( per ASTM E748 ) Sample / LOT Description

a. Radiographs of Production Lot Units shall include Lot Acceptance Testing (LAT) samples.

13. Radiographs may be produced using film (conventional x-ray), or non-film (digital) techniques such as Digital Detector Array (DDA), or Computed Radiography (CR), with the understanding that the Contractor must be qualified and given prior approval to use digital radiography by NSWC IHEODTD. A qualification plan must be submitted to the Level III Radiographer at NSWC Indian Head EODTD for review prior to qualification of the digital x-ray system. Once the qualification plan has been reviewed and approved, the Level III Radiographer at NSWC Indian Head EODTD will conduct a site visit (i.e. audit) to witness the qualification of the digital x-ray system. The results of the tests performed during the digital x-ray system qualification will be documented in a qualification plan, which will be submitted to the Level III Radiographer at NSWC Indian Head EODTD. At a minimum, the qualification plan shall include information such as the type of system (Make/Model of DDA or CR system, x-ray sources etc.), as well as the specific types of tests (performance checks, as described in the ASTM standards) to be performed to verify the performance of the system. The tests are described in the appropriate ASTM standards (i.e. ASTM E2445 and ASTM E2033 for CR, and ASTM E2737 and ASTM E2698 for DDA systems). An official approval letter will then be issued by the Commanding Officer, NSWC Indian Head EODTD, which authorizes the use of the digital system. Follow up audits at regular intervals (i.e. annually) may be conducted to assure the long term stability and performance of the digital x-ray system. If digital radiographs are submitted, they shall be in the form of raw data that is Digital Imaging and Communication in Nondestructive Evaluation (DICONDE) compliant. In addition to the raw DICONDE data, 16 bit Tagged Image Format (TIF) images of the digital radiographs must be submitted. The qualification of non-film techniques will be done IAW the latest versions of standards referenced in the latest version of ASTM E1742 (currently ASTM E1742/E1742M-12), such as ASTM E2698 and ASTM E2737 (for the qualification of Digital Detector Array (DDA) detectors), or ASTM E2033 and ASTM E2445 (for the qualification of Computed Radiography (CR) systems).
