The contractor shall ensure that the personnel staffing the FACAR system have the authority to coordinate and implement the necessary failure and problem reporting, analysis, and related corrective action. The contractor shall ensure that nonconformance data is adequately analyzed, distributed to appropriate organizations and personnel, and that appropriate management decisions are based on this data. Analysis must target root cause corrective action. The contractor shall take appropriate actions to improve or change processes that do not meet requirements. All use-as-is and repair dispositions shall include a determination of whether or not a change is required to the product database (drawing, specifications, work instructions, tooling, etc.). Determination that such a change is not required shall be recorded and shall be available to the Government for review. Acceptance of the nonconformance corrective action and disposition is the prerogative of the Government and can be revoked whenever the contractor’s system fails to demonstrate effective root cause corrective action or when repeated nonconformance indicate an overall quality system degradation.

The contractor shall establish processes to minimize the risk of procuring and using counterfeit parts and materials.

The contractor shall document these processes and provide those documented processes to Government upon request. These processes shall include:

The contractor shall maximize the use of authentic, originally designed and/or qualified parts.

The contractor shall assess potential sources of supply to minimize the risk of receiving counterfeit parts or materials.

The contractor shall have purchasing procedures which confirm whether a selected supplier is authorized for each purchase.

The contractor shall define minimum inspection and test requirements for parts being procured and shall ensure that in-house, third-party, and/or supplier inspection and test procedures and facilities comply with these requirements. These minimum inspection and test requirements shall specify appropriate test methods to detect potential counterfeit parts and materials.

The contractor shall require a certificate of compliance and supply chain traceability for all electronic part purchases.

The contractor shall use government or industry services such as the Government-Industry Data Exchange Program (GIDEP) and other commercially available services to identify part or supplier quality or authenticity problems.

The contractor shall notify the Government of the occurrence of a confirmed counterfeit part or material and the actions taken to identify, contain, and impound all product from the lot, within seven business days of confirmation of the counterfeit status. The contractor shall flow down a requirement for similar notification from subcontractors to the contractor. The contractor shall initiate and submit an alert to the GIDEP within 60 calendar days of knowledge of the counterfeit part or material.

Counterfeit parts may be electronic or mechanical in nature. Counterfeit electronic parts may typically be used parts which have been refurbished and represented as new. Commonly counterfeited electronic parts include parts such as microcontrollers or specially screened devices, or common parts, which have several pin-compatible versions from multiple manufacturers, such as memory devices and operational amplifiers. Counterfeit mechanical parts are typically improperly made, marked, or treated products. Examples are improper anodization or heat treatments, falsified data, mismarked parts sold as a higher grade steel, or used/fake parts such as valves or circuit breakers.

An authorized supplier is a supplier authorized by the original component manufacturer to buy parts or materials directly from the manufacturer. Parts provided from authorized suppliers typically have never left the manufacturer’s authorized supply chain, and are accompanied by full manufacturer support and warranty.
