(a) The samples shall be randomly selected by the Supplier's Source Sampling Representative.

(b) Upon presentation of a lot, the Supplier's Source Sampling Representative will draw samples and forward the samples to the contractor's laboratory specified in the contract for testing.

(c) Shipment of Component Lots from the source to the prime contractor need not be deferred except for Government Acceptance Testing (i.e., shade evaluation). Commencement of production prior to receipt of a passing test report from the contractor's authorized laboratory is solely at the contractor's risk.

(d) The contractor will provide copies of Certificates of Compliance to the QAS.

**Special note: Contractors shall ensure that blocks 2 and 15 of the form DD1222 are updated to reflect the correct information. Historically, both blocks contained the information of the DCMA QAR and their stamp/signature.

Historically, both blocks contained the information of the DCMA QAR and their stamp/signature. When contractor’s representative samples, these blocks shall include the contractor’s representative’s information. Block 17 shall still include the DCMA QAR to receive the results of the report even though they may not be sampling the material to be tested.
