(2) serve as the basis for inspection of the completed item(s).

(b) These drawings DON'T cover intermediate drawings/specifications or steps in the manufacturing process.

E.12 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.
