Notice Regarding First Article Test Sample

(a) The approved first article items, as described elsewhere in this contract, consist of a quantity of 2 that will be consumed or destroyed in testing. Any items consumed or destroyed in testing shall not be delivered as part of the contractually required quantity as set forth in the schedule. The cost of any items that are consumed or destroyed shall be included in the overall offer or contract price. A quantity of 0 that successfully passes all specified tests, less the destructive tests, if any, shall serve as a manufacturing standard for the remainder of the contract.

(b) A manufacturing standard is an item, which conforms to all technical performance requirements. A manufacturing standard will serve as 1) an aid in identifying configuration changes not controlled by the contractual design, 2) as an aid in identifying any process changes, or 3) as the approved workmanship sample, when required, unless alternate samples are submitted for specific characteristics by the Contractor and approved by the Government.

(c) The manufacturing standard will only be used to supplement contractual acceptance/rejection criteria for those process characteristics that require approved workmanship samples. For other characteristics, if configuration or process changes are identified in production units, the Contractor will notify the Procuring Contracting Officer for disposition. Manufacturing items that serve as a manufacturing standard may be delivered as part of the contractual quantity with the last shipment made under this contract provided it meets all contractual requirements existing at time of delivery.

(output current), 4E (overspeed), and 4F (endurance), 4G (shock), and 4H (vibration) as shown in table 4.A

(2) The First Article Test Report (FATR) shall be compiled by the Contractor to the Contractor's own format. The FATR shall document the results of all inspections and tests (including supplier's and vendor's inspection records and certifications, when applicable). The FATR shall include actual inspections and test results to include all measurements, recorded test data, and certifications (if applicable) keyed to each drawing, specification and Quality Assurance Provision (QAP) requirement and identified by each individual QAP characteristic, drawing/specification characteristic and unlisted characteristic. The FATR shall contain sufficient narrative content, technical data, illustrations or photographic evidence, and an objective determination by the Contractor to allow the designated Government representative to determine that the First Article Test was successfully completed.

************ End of Narrative ************

ES7019

Alternative to Lot Acceptance Sampling (including Statistical Process Control)

(a) Offerors are encouraged to propose a defect prevention strategy in lieu of lot acceptance inspection and testing requirements cited in the technical data package. The Government recognizes that industry has developed numerous prevention based strategies which result in reduced process variation and promote continuous process improvement initiatives. Use of alternatives to lot acceptance sampling can provide offerors the latitude of implementing prevention based programs that are suitable to their particular mode of operation.

Offerors are encouraged to submit their alternative proposals prior to award. Although the Government will entertain post award requests, there is no guarantee such requests will be accepted.

(b) Requests to use alternatives to lot acceptance sampling shall be provided to the Procuring Contracting Officer for review and

10 18

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

approval or disapproval. Such requests shall include:

(1) Identification of the specific inspections and tests to be reduced or eliminated.

(2) A description of your prevention based program. This should include such topics as a training program and the performance of audits.

(3) A description of the tools used to monitor and control the specific processes being evaluated. This should include such topics as criteria for determining out of control conditions and procedures to be used when an out of control condition is detected.

(4) The results of a process performance study, and if available, the results of a process capability study.

(5) For SPC data to be used as an alternative to lot acceptance sampling, the following conditions shall be met:

(i) The process is in a state of statistical control using Statistical Process Control (SPC) control chart methods.

(ii) Variable data: for Critical characteristics a CPK =/> 2.00 (or equivalent capability) is achieved; for Major characteristics a

CPK =/> 1.33 (or equivalent capability) is achieved.

(iii) Attribute data: for Critical Characteristics a process average of 100% of the product conforming to the specification; for

Major Characteristics a process average of 99.9937% of the product conforming to the specification.

(c) Proposals offered after award. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate lot acceptance procedure submitted by the Contractor. The Contractor may submit an alternate lot acceptance procedure at any time during the performance of this contract. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate procedure within 30 days of receipt. If the Government needs more time to evaluate the alternate procedure, the Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor in writing, giving the reasons and the anticipated decision date. The Contractor may withdraw its proposal at any time prior to its incorporation by contract modification. Because offerors may withdraw their proposal at any time, the Contracting Officer's failure to timely accept or reject the proposal shall not constitute grounds for claim against the Government. Any proposed and accepted procedure must be incorporated by contract modification. If the alternate procedure is not accepted, the Contracting Officer shall provide the Contractor with written notification, explaining the reasons for rejection.

(d) Any equitable adjustment resulting from approval of an alternate lot acceptance procedure described in paragraph (c) above will be handled in accordance with the Changes clause of this contract.

(e) Until notification is received, the Contractor is required to perform under this contract in accordance with the requirements herein, including lot acceptance inspection and testing.

************ End of Narrative ************

(b) When any of the conditions above occurs, the Contractor shall notify the Procuring Contracting Officer so that a determination can be made concerning the need for the additional first article sample (or portion thereof), and instructions can be provided concerning the submission, inspection, and notification of results.

(c) Costs of any additional testing and inspection resulting from conditions specified above shall be borne by the Contractor, unless the change was directed by the Government. Further, any production delays caused by additional testing and inspection will not be the basis for an excusable delay as defined in the default clause of this contract. Such delays shall not form the basis for adjustment in contract price or delivery schedule.

SECTION M - EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

MS6314

ALT I Evaluation Factors for First Article Test Requirement

(a) If the offeror submits a request for waiver of First Article Approval but fails to comply with the requirements of the provision entitled PROVISION FOR WAIVER, the requested waiver may not be granted. If the waiver is not granted, more favorable alternative offers of price or delivery, conditioned upon the granting of a waiver, will not be considered in the evaluation process

(b) DELIVERY:

(1) As specified in this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to waive the requirement entitled FIRST ARTICLE

APPROVAL. In the event of a waiver, the Government will compute a delivery schedule for the first delivery order issued by excluding all lead times that would be included if first article approval were required. However, in no event shall such accelerated delivery schedule for the first delivery order be considered as an evaluation factor for award, even if such schedule would be more advantageous to the Government. (Note that delivery orders subsequent to the first order shall have delivery schedules as specified in individual orders, or as specified in Section B or F herein, regardless of whether First Article Approval applied initially. Note further that, absent a waiver, the Government expects to require First Article Approval only once during the course of this contract--in conjunction with the first delivery order to be issued hereunder. However, the Government reserves the right to require additional first article testing if the Contractor (i) changes or moves the production facility at which the contract item is manufactured, or (ii) submits a significant configuration change in the form of an Engineering Change Proposal (ECP/VECP) or a Request for Deviation or Request for

Waiver (RFD/RFW), during or after performance on the first delivery order.)

(2) If an Offeror requests waiver of First Article Approval but takes exception to the resulting delivery schedule for the first delivery order as described above, the requested waiver will not be granted. In consequence, any award to that Offeror shall include all First Article Approval requirements, and the delivery schedule for the first delivery order shall include the appropriate first article lead times.

(c) PRICE EVALUATION FACTORS:

(1) As specified in this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to waive the requirement entitled FIRST ARTICLE

APPROVAL, and subtract the price of the proposed First Article Test (at Section B, Item 0016) from the proposal of offerors who elect to seek such a waiver. In the event that the offeror requests and receives a waiver of First Article Approval requirements, the price for such testing, as identified by the Offeror in Section B, Item 0016, shall be deducted from the total price otherwise cited for the materiel herein solicited. The offer will then be evaluated for award at the resulting alternate price.

(2) If the offeror requests a waiver of First Article Approval requirements, but fails to separately identify the cost of

First Article Testing in Section B, Item 0016 of this solicitation, the Government reserves the right to evaluate the offer based upon the price for all CLIN(s), including the First Article Testing (FAT) CLIN(s), and to require that offeror perform on the contract at such price whether or not the First Article requirement is waived, at no additional cost to the Government.

(3) If the offeror requests but is not granted a waiver of First Article Approval, evaluation for award will be based upon the full amount entered for all CLIN(s), including the First Article Testing (FAT) CLIN(s): the amount entered for item 0016 will not be deducted by the Government.
