b. Lot acceptance testing [LAT] (3.5.2)
3.5.1 First article inspection.
First Article requirements will be specified in each delivery order as necessary. When specified, one preproduction sample, hereinafter referred to as first article, shall be submitted to the specified Government activity for inspection and testing prior to the commencement of the full production quantity. The first article shall be fully representative of those proposed for production and demonstrate the adequacy and suitability of the Contractor's process and procedures in complying with the requirements set forth by the drawings and specification. The Government test activity shall prepare a written test report at the conclusion of first article testing. See CDRL A002. Accepted First Article samples will be shipped at the Governments expense to the final destination and added to the total amount of container production units.
3.5.1.1 First article sample.
Before the production lot is delivered, the contractor shall conduct a first article test in accordance with the included government provided First Article Test Plan. All parts and assemblies shall be manufactured using the same facilities, processes, and tooling, and shall be from the same sources of supply that will be used in production. Prior to submission, the contractor shall inspect the sample to assure it conforms to the requirements of the contract. A first article sample, as directed by the Contracting Officer, shall also be submitted whenever there is a lapse in production in excess of 180 days or whenever a change occurs in manufacturing process, tooling, material used, drawings, or specifications such as to significantly affect product uniformity as determined by the Government.
3.5.1.2 Failures.
Failure of any first article sample shall be cause for first article rejection. If any assembly or component fails to comply with any of the applicable requirements, the first article sample shall be rejected. The Government reserves the right to terminate inspection upon any failure of an assembly or component in the sample to comply with any of the stated requirements. In the event of rejection, the Government reserves the right to require the contractor to take corrective action and submit a new first article sample or portion thereof. Until a first article sample is accepted, the contractor is, in no way, authorized by the Government to begin regular production, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer.
3.5.2 Lot Acceptance Testing
3.5.2.1 Lot formation
The term "lot" as used throughout this specification refers to an inspection lot, which is defined as an essentially homogeneous collection of units of product from which a representative sample is drawn and inspected to determine conformance of the lot with applicable requirements. The sample shall be selected only from that quantity of units that make up the represented lot. Each lot shall have its own sample. Homogeneity shall be considered to exist provided the lot has been produced by one manufacturer, in one unchanged process, using the same supply sources, materials, tooling, and methods in accordance with the same drawings, drawing revisions, specifications, and specification revisions. Any such changes shall be brought to the attention of the contracting officer and may require the start of a new lot and possibly a new FAT at the discretion of the Government. Inspection lots shall comply with ANSI/ASQC Z1.4. Lot numbering, as required, shall be in accordance with MIL-STD-1168. Ammunition data cards shall be prepared for each container lot in accordance with MIL-STD-1168.
Inspection lots for components or subassemblies, other than the items of delivery, shall be homogeneous and of a size convenient to the contractor. The maximum number of lots of components which can be assembled into one container lot shall be three. There shall be no intermingling of components between manufacturers. Insofar as practicable, manufacturer’s lot numbers within a container lot and in consecutive container lots shall be in consecutive numerical sequence. Every effort shall be made to keep the number of container lots that contain a specific component lot at a minimum. Drawing number and revision letter, Manufacturer, lot numbers and quantities for each component shall be recorded on the container ammunition data card.
3.5.2.2 Examination.
Sampling plans and procedures for major and minor defects shall be in accordance with ANSI/ASQC Z1.4, Inspection Level I, using an AQL of 0.40 percent for each major defect and an AQL of 0.65 percent for each minor defect, except that inspection for critical defects shall be 100 percent and any defectives shall be removed from the lot. Any and all drawing characteristics not indicated to be critical or major are considered to be classified as a minor characteristics.
3.6 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED PROPERTY
1.1 Individual DO’s shall specify the Government Furnished Equipment and information to be issued.
1.2 The property will be delivered at the Government’s expense at or near the Contractor facility.
1.3 Any GFP Attachment furnished by the Government will be on a delivery order basis. All other property required for performance of this contract shall be furnished by the Contractor.
