The tests may be performed by the contractor, either by personnel of their service organization directly, or by an independent testing agency. The contractor shall contact the government a minimum of two (2) weeks (NOTE: Longer on complex projects) before the completion of the manufacturing of the specified equipment.

For the purpose of this test, a “failure” is defined as any equipment malfunction, which requires remedial action to restore the system to full operation in accordance with contract specifications.
