SHADE SWATCHING EVALUATION REQUIREMENT

52.246-9031

(A) SAMPLING: NOTWITHSTANDING ANY CURRENT PROVISIONS OF THE FABRIC

SPECIFICATION, THE FOLLOWING SHED EVALUATION SHALL APPLY TO THIS

SOLICITATION. A 4X12 INCH SHADE SWATCH WILL BE CUT BY THE CONTRACTOR FROM

THOSE PIECES OR ROLLS SELECTED BY THE GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVE, IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING TABLE:

91 TO 160 32 PIECES

OVER 160 PIECES 1 OF EVERY 5 PIECES

THE SWATCHES SHALL BE IDENTIFIED AND SUBMIT TO THE DLA TROOP SUPPORT

LABORATORY FOR SHADE EVALUATION. IF ONE OR MORE OF THE SHADE SWATCHES

ARE FOUND UNACCEPTABLE, THE ENTIRE LOT SHALL BE REJECTED. A LOT THAT WAS

REJECTED FOR SHADE SHALL BE SCREENED AND ALL DEFECTIVE PIECES IN THE LOT

SHALL BE REMOVED BEFORE SUCH A LOT IS RESUBMITTED. RESUBMITTED LOTS SHALL

AGAIN BE SUBJECTED TO THE SAMPLING AND SHADE EVALUATION PRESCRIBED

HEREIN. THIS REQUIREMENT DOES NOT NEGATE THE CONTACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY TO

PERFORM SHADE EVALUATION PRIOR TO THE SUBMITTAL OF A LOT TO THE

GOVERNMENT.

(B) WHEN SECTION 3 OF THE FABRIC SPECIFICATION CONTAINS A SPECIFIC

REQUIREMENT FOR UNIFORMITY OF SHADE AND WHEN THE STANDARD SAMPLE IS

REFERENCED FOR UNIFORMITY OF SHADE, THE SWATCHES SUBMITTED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH (A) ABOVE SHALL ALSO BE EVALUATED FOR UNIFORMITY OF

SHADE.

(C) THE CONTRACTOR SHALL TRANSMIT THE SWATCHES TO:

DLA PRODUCT TESTING CENTER ANALYTICAL

ANALYTICAL FOR SHADE, THOSE PIECES FROM WHICH THE REJECTED SWATCHES WERE

CUT WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE LOT. EACH PIECE ACCEPTABLE FOR SHADE FROM

WHICH A SHADE SWATCH HAS BEEN REMOVED SHALL BE CUT BY THE CONTRACTOR

FROM SELVAGE TO SELVAGE SO THAT THERE WILL BE NO EVIDENCE OF THE SHADE

SWATCH CUT-OUT. THE PORTION REMOVED SHALL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE

YARDAGE INDICATED ON THE PIECE TICKET.

(E) IF THE CONTRACTOR REWORKS AND RESUBMITS PIECES ORIGINALLY REJECTED FOR

SHADE OR FINISH, IT SHALL NOT COMBINE THE REJECTED PIECES WITH NORMAL

PRODUCTION OR WITH LOTS REJECTED FOR OTHER CAUSES. SUCH PIECES SHALL BE

COMBINED TO FORM ONE RESUBMITTED LOT. EACH PIECE SHALL RETAIN ITS ORIGINAL

Marking shall be in accordance with MIL-STD-129.

15 Duffel Bags shall be packed in a fiberboard shipping container conforming to ASTM-D-5118, Type CF, Style RSC, Grade 275, variety SW, Class domestic, with a double wall liner. Any commercial closure method cited in ASTM-D-1974 is acceptable except stapling.

If not using an RFID hangtag containing printed requirements below (barcode label):

Each bag shall have a barcode label conforming to Type VIII, Class 17 of MIL-DTL-32075. The bar coding element shall be a 13 digit national stock number (NSN). There shall be a 12 digit UPC number assigned for all NSNs by the contracting activity. The initials "UPC" must appear beneath the code. The bar code for NSN and UPC type shall be a medium to high density and shall be located so that it is completely visible on the garment when it is folded and/or packaged as specified and so it causes no damage to the garment. The UPC code must be placed on all shipping cartons on which the NSN appears.

An RFID inlay shall be individually attached to each item.

The RFID inlay shall be passive Gen2 with a frequency range between 860 and 960 MHz. The RFID antenna shall be Avery/Dennis AD222 or comparable with ISO/IEC 18000-6C EPC global Class1 Gen2 Protocol and an EPC memory allocation containing a 96 bit EPC Number. The data linking the EPC number to the NSN and quantity unit pack shall be exportable to VIM/ASAP. The bar code and the human readable version of the EPC Number shall be printed under the RFID inlay.

The RFID tag shall be examined for the defects listed below:

-RFID Inlay omitted -RFID Inlay not secure -RFID Inlay not readable with RFID scanner RFID Inlay or configuration not as specified Barcode of the EPC number omitted or not readable with barcode scanner Human readable version of the EPC number omitted or not readable

The manual document "Item-Level Passive RFID Technology Manufacturer's Information Guide" provides guidance on RFID implementation and is available from the contracting officer.

SIGNIFICANT NOTE - "PALLETIZATION IS REQUIRED FOR THESE SUPPLIES".

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING APPLIES TO ALL NON-MANUFACTURED WOOD PACKAGING

MATERIALS:

"All Wood Packaging Material (WPM) acquired by DOD must meet requirements of International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 15, "Guidelines for Regulating Wood Packaging Materials in International Trade." DOD shipments inside and outside of the United States must meet ISPM 15 whenever WPM is used to ship DOD cargo, or when wood is being acquired by DLA for future use as packaging material. WPM is defined as wood pallets, skids, load boards, pallet collars, wooden boxes, reels, dunnage, crates, frame and cleats. Packaging materials exempt from the requirements are materials that have undergone a manufacturing process, such as corrugated fiberboard, plywood, particleboard, veneer, and oriented strand board (OSD). All WPM shall comply with one of the following official quality control programs:

Heat Treatment (HT) or Kiln Dried Heat Treatment (KD HT) in accordance with American Lumber Standard Committee, Incorporated (ALSC) Wood Packaging Material Program and WPM Enforcement Regulations (see http://www.alsc.org/; or

All WPM shall include certification/quality markings in accordance with the ALSC or NWPCA standards, as applicable. Markings shall be placed in an unobstructed area that will be readily visible to inspectors. Pallet markings shall be applied to the stringer or block on diagonally opposite sides of the pallet and be contrasting and clearly visible.

All containers shall be marked on a side other than the top or bottom, contrasting and clearly visible. All dunnage used in configuring and/or securing the load shall also comply with ISPM 15 and be marked with an ASLC approved DUNNAGE stamp. Failure to comply with the requirements of this restriction may result in refusal, destruction, or treatment of materials at the point of entry. The Agency reserves the right to recoup from the Contractor any remediation costs incurred by the Government."

PALLET SHALL BE 4 WAY ENTRY, WINGED TYPE. PALLETIZED LOAD DIMENSIONS

SHALL NOT EXCEED 43 INCHES IN LENGTH, 52 INCHES IN WIDTH, AND 54 INCHES IN

HEIGHT (INCLUDING THE PALLET).

THE PALLETIZED LOAD SHALL BE BONDED USING APPROVED COMMERCIAL BONDING

MATERIALS. THE USE OF METAL BANDING, IN SECURING BOXES TO PALLETS, IS

DISCOURAGED. PALLET LOADS SHALL CONTAIN THE SAME NUMBER OF CARTONS, OF

IDENTICAL QUANTITIES, OF ONE NSN, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE.

PALLET LOADS CONTAINING MORE THAN ONE NSN SHALL BE CLEARLY MARKED TO

LIST ALL THE NSN'S CONTAINED IN THE LOAD. NO CARTON SHALL HAVE MORE THAN

ONE NSN. AT THE END OF A SIZE RUN, NO MORE THAN ONE CARTON PER NSN MAY BE

SHORT OR OVER THE SPECIFIED QUANTITY. SAID CARTON SHALL BE CLEARLY
