Question: There seems to be an inconsistency regarding inspection requirements from last Q&A:

"This contact does not include a Physical Configuration Audit (PCA) clause. That would be our process where a small sample of parts would be 100% inspected against all features of the drawing. What we did call out are the characteristics listed in the QAP. These callouts are attached to MIL-STD-1916 Verification Levels which dictate that 1 in every X parts will have this feature examined. Because we are buying such a small quantity of parts this factor becomes 1 in every 1 part will have this feature examined. This means that we have 100% of parts for this order being examined for each major and minor characteristic. We are examining every part, but not every feature of every drawing."

Solicitation:

9. First Article Inspection: CCDC Armament will be inspecting 2 quantity per part for the dimensions and tolerances listed in drawing 19200_13095276, 19200_13095280, 19200_13095283, and 19200_13095293. Notification of FAI date by the contractor shall be no less than 14 days prior.

Answer: Government will evaluate based on the QAP issued with the amendment 0001 which is the inspection for all deliverables. Paragraph 9. First Article Inspection is only pertaining to First Article testing.
