APPENDIX 3

A3.1 PRODUCT VERIFICATION AUDIT PROCEDURES

A3.1.1 This attachment contains procedures and instructions for contractual accomplishment of Product Verification Audits (PVAs). This attachment does not supersede instructions contained in the contract remanufacture work requirements or other contractual provisions. In instances of conflict, the latter applies. The contractual issuance of this attachment and performance of PVAs does not relieve the contractor of the responsibility for maintaining a Quality Control System that will assure productions of items that conform to contractual requirements. PVAs are management tools used to independently evaluate and validate the conformance of a remanufactured item and contractor compliance to contractual requirements as well as the adequacy of the Government's contractually stipulated requirements.

A3.2 TERMS EXPLAINED

A3.2.1 PVA. The physical examination, functional testing and complete disassembly of an item to determine conformance to contractual requirements as well as adequacy of the contractual requirements which may require in excess of the original contractor remanufacture effort. The audit includes correction of defects, reassembly, retesting, repackaging, remarking, update of records and correction of contractual requirements as required.

A3.2.2 Cognizant Quality Assurance Element. The DOD contract administration service element having direct responsibility for implementing the Government Quality Assurance Program at the contractor's plant.

A3.2.3 Remanufactured Work Requirement. Any contract instrument, TO, drawing, specification or directive which contains instructions and requirements for remanufacture and rehabilitation of a reparable/unserviceable item.

A3.2.4 Procedural Deficiency. A deficiency which is noted during the audit and which results from either:

A3.2.4.1 Failure by contractor to establish processes/procedures in conformity with contractual requirements; or, A3.2.4.2 Failure by contractor to follow established processes or procedures.

A3.3 RESPONSIBILITIES

A3.3.1 The contractor shall:

FD20302400588 Page 19 of 27

A3.3.1.2 Provide technical personnel, tooling, measuring/test equipment, work areas, forms and clerical assistance, as required, to perform the PVA.

A3.3.2 The cognizant DOD QAR shall:

A3.3.2.1 Be designated as audit team chairman, unless otherwise directed by the Procuring

Contracting Officer (PCO).

A3.3.2.2 Schedule the product verification audit and select the item(s) to be audited.

A3.3.2.3 Notify the PCO and the contractor when the PVA will begin. Notification shall be provided at least 15 working days prior to the audit date. Scheduled audits may be waived by the PCO on a case-by-case basis.

A3.4 AUDIT PROCEDURES

A3.4.1 Classifying Defects. Defects observed in the audited item(s) will be classified according to the following:

A3.4.1.1 Category I - Critical Defect. Defect that judgment and experience indicates likely to result in hazardous/unsafe conditions for individuals using, maintaining or depending upon the product; or a defect that judgment and experience indicates is likely to prevent performance of the tactical function of a major end item such as an aircraft, engine communication system, surveillance system or major part thereof. Critical defects are further identified as follows:

A3.4.1.1.1 Category IA - Defect attributable to the contractor's failure to comply with contractual requirements.

A3.4.1.1.2 Category IB - Defect not attributable to contractor's failure to comply with contractual requirements such as a design deficiency, inadequate or omitted requirement or defective Government Furnished Property (GFP).

A3.4.1.2 Category II - Major Defect. Defect other than critical that is likely to result in failure or reduce materially the usability of unit or product for its intended purpose.

Major defects are further identified as follows:

A3.4.1.2.1 Category IIA - Defect attributable to the contractor's failure to comply with

A3.4.1.2.2 Category IIB - Defect not attributable to contractor's failure to comply with

FD20302400588 Page 20 of 27 contractual requirements such as a design deficiency, inadequate or omitted requirements or defective GFP.

A3.4.1.3 Category III - Minor Defect. Defect that is not likely to reduce materially the usability of the unit or product for its intended purposes or is a departure from established standards having little bearing on the effective use or operation of the unit. Minor defects are further identified as follows:

A3.4.1.3.1 Category IIIA - Defect attributable to the contractor's failure to comply with

A3.4.1.3.2 Category IIIB - Defect not attributable to the contractor.

A3.4.1.4 Category IV - Defect caused during accomplishment of the audit disassembly or inspection process which would not have occurred had the contractor exercised proper care of the audit item, i.e., improper handling, improper disassembly technique.

The contractor is required to provide the Government a surge plan. A CDRL and DID are associated with the surge requirement. After being notified of the surge demand in writing, the contractor may see additional orders and/or will see the priority status elevated on current orders. The contractor may do one or more of the following to fill the demand:

5.1.2 The contractor will maintain level of safety stock of components to draw from to perform additional repairs.

5.1.3 Add additional shifts to increase production within the contractor and with suppliers.

The contractor will work with the various manufacturing sites and their supply chain to expedite production. The contractor will be notified in advance of, and be given the opportunity to negotiate; any expedite charges that might apply at the time of surge.

Contractual requirements for production of this contract are addressed in Part I. The schedule and surge requirements will be on a best-effort basis.

5.1.4 Surge plans have four basic phases (assessment, execution, sustainment, and exit/termination) and the plan associated with the surged items requested need to address those phases. The Government will provide, in writing, the items on contract that are requested to be surged. That will include the item, the quantity, and timeline with respect to delivery schedule with estimated termination dates when known.

Contractors will provide a plan that includes the identified surge items, how they are going to meet the requirement, timeline to implement the plan, ability to sustain the surge through termination, identify any limiting factors or supply chain risks that will impact current surge production and future requirements for identified items.
