The warranty period shall be for a minimum of 3 years. The warranty period shall commence from the date of acceptance. All warranty work shall be provided by a factory authorized distributer.

4 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS

4.1 RESPONSIBILITY FOR INSPECTION - The Contractor shall be responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements (examinations and tests) as specified herein. The Government reserves the right to perform any of the inspections set forth in this specification, where such inspections are deemed necessary to assure supplies and services conform to the prescribed requirements.

4.2 RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLIANCE - All items shall meet all requirements of this specification.

The inspection(s) set forth in this specification shall become part of the contractor’s overall inspection system or quality program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of assuring that all products or supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract. Sampling inspections, as part of manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain conformance to requirements; however, this does not authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to accept defective material.

4.3 INSPECTION/TESTING AT ORIGIN - Basic performance tests (prior to shipment) shall be conducted by the manufacturer on the primary equipment and all associated equipment to the extent practicable, to demonstrate functionality, to ensure contract requirements are being met. 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 two (2) weeks before the completion of the manufacturing of the specified equipment. This shall allow the government the option of sending their technical representative(s) to witness the tests, and to ensure contract requirements are being met, prior to shipment of the unit to the government.

4.4 INSPECTION/TESTING AT DESTINATION

4.4.1 Initial Test and Grooming - The equipment delivered with the system shall be inspected by the Government for mechanical and electrical integrity as follows: All welds shall be inspected for integrity and appearance. Surfaces shall be examined for sharp edges and burrs. Fasteners shall be checked for tightness and if fixed to prevent loosening due to vibration. Paint will be checked for flaking and blistering. Electrical requirements shall be examined for compliance to the National Electrical Code, (NFPA 70/79). The fit of parts shall be observed, with particular reference to the interchangeability of those that are likely to require replacement. Faults will be duly recorded and presented to the contractor for rectification.

4.4.2 Operational Tests - Upon satisfactory completion of the tests above, the equipment shall be set up for an operational test and evaluation. The contractor shall demonstrate the ability of the equipment to perform as required in this specification. All equipment functions shall be exercised to the extent necessary to prove proper operation in accordance with specification requirements. The system shall function, without failure, for the duration of this test period. If a failure occurs during the test period, repairs shall be immediately affected by the Contractor, and the tests shall be restarted from the first test. Three failures without completion of the test period shall be considered cause for rejection of the system. 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.

4.4.3 Load Test of Lifting Pads and Non-Destructive Tests of Load Bearing Welds - Each lifting pad while attached to the equipment shall undergo a load test for a minimum of 10 minutes without damage or deformation.

The magnitude of the load test shall be based on a 200-210% increase above the “design load”. Acceptance shall be based on no visible damage or permanent distortion following the proof test. Damage and permanent distortion is defined as cracks, tears, mushrooming of load-bearing areas, bent or twisted pads or structure etc. On each lifting pad (or immediately adjacent to it) the lifting pad design load, 200% test load and test date shall be stencil or labeled in 1-inch high letters. A Non-Destructive Test shall be made on each of the lifting pads (after the load test if each lifting pad is performed). This shall include magnetic particle or liquid penetrant examination of the load bearing welds and lifting pads. Welds and materials shall meet the acceptance criteria in Mil-Std-2035A Class 1.

4.5 PROVISIONS FOR REPAIR AND RETEST - In the event of a test failure, the contractor, at their discretion, may elect to correct the failed condition and request a retest of the system (vs. shipping the equipment back to the manufacturer for repairs).

4.6 FINAL ACCEPTANCE - Final acceptance shall be upon satisfactory completion of installation, inspection, start-up, testing, and training of said equipment system (as outlined in this specification).

5 DELIVERY

5.2 The Surveillance Officer shall be notified no less than 48 hours prior to the arrival at the site of the specified equipment and/or contractor personnel.

5.3 Material transportation from the manufacturer’s facility to the work site shall be the responsibility of the contractor. Limited secured storage areas at the facility will not permit the Government to store material for extended periods of time. Early shipment of materials, without the permission of the receiving activity shall be refused.

5.4 Packing Material - The use of shredded paper, whether newspaper, office scrap, computer sheets, or wax paper, in packing material for shipment to Navy activities, is prohibited.

5.5 It is the Government’s intent that the Contractor delivers a fully operational and functional system meeting the requirements stated herein prior to acceptance by the receiving activity and final payment by the government.
