Summary of Supplemental Quality Assurance Provisions (SQAP)

This document is a Supplemental Quality Assurance Provision (SQAP) issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy containing multiple quality assurance and inspection requirements for DLA Energy contracts. The SQAP includes specifications for aviation turbine fuel (Jet A-1), with revision 2 dated October 22, 2025, establishing performance requirements that conform to ASTM D1655 standards, with European, Middle Eastern, and Asian locations required to meet Defence Standard 91-491. Environmental requirements mandate that supplies conform to in-country environmental standards applicable to the delivery location, with stricter requirements superseding contract specifications. The document specifies additive requirements including Fuel System Icing Inhibitor (FSII) at 0.04 to 0.15 percent by volume conforming to MIL-DTL-85470C or ASTM D4171, Corrosion Inhibitor/Lubricity Improver (CI/LI) per MIL-PRF-25017H listed in the Qualified Products List, Static Dissipator Additive (SDA) at 50-700 picosiemsens per meter, and Metal Deactivator (MDA) only with prior written consent. The Kerojet Aquarius additive is prohibited, and synthetic blend components must meet specified ASTM standards.

Additional provisions address contractor inspection responsibilities requiring compliance with contract specifications and submission of product samples to designated locations at no cost, with complete quality and quantity records maintained for six years following final payment. Point of acceptance for Free on Board (FOB) origin items occurs at origin, while FOB destination items are accepted at destination. The SQAP also provides a list of DLA Energy inspection offices organized by geographic region with assigned office codes (110-400) for the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and international locations including Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific. The document includes instructions for developing unique QAP/SQAP provisions for individual National Stock Numbers or Local Stock Numbers, with multiple revisions tracked including provisions for contractor inspection responsibilities (E17), nonconforming supplies and services procedures (E35), and point of acceptance terms (E12), all approved for public release.
