E.2 PROCESS CAPABILITY, CONTROL AND IMPROVEMENT REQUIREMENTS

a. The Contractor shall establish a Process Control System that includes, but is not limited to, procedures, systems and software.

This Process Control System shall complement the requirements of an ISO 9001-2015 or equivalent Quality Management System as well as all contract quality requirements. Statistical Process Control (SPC), when utilized, shall be implemented in accordance with ISO 11462-1 and ANSI/ASQC B1, B2, and B3 or equivalent. A Process Control Plan (PCP), which describes actions and methods to assure production processes are in a state of control, shall be submitted to the Government for review and approval as stipulated on DD Form 1423.

Demonstration of process capability in accordance with the approved PCP shall be accomplished prior to or at first article (if required) or prior to start of production. The Government reserves the right to withhold acceptance of product when there is evidence of noncompliance to the PCP. Should a finding of noncompliance to the PCP be made, a corrective action plan shall be submitted to the

Government for approval.

b. Characteristics for process control (CFPC) are as follows:

(1) CFPCs are features whose variation have a significant effect on product fit, form, function, performance, service life or producibility, that require specific actions for the purpose of controlling variation. CFPCs result from an in-depth Government-only review and analysis as specified in Technical Data Package (TDP) documentation as required below:

[X](1.1) Government selected list, see paragraph g. below

[ ](1.2) As listed key characteristics

[ ] (2) CFPCs are features whose variation have a significant effect on product fit, form, function, performance, service life or producibility, that require specific actions for the purpose of controlling variation. CFPCs shall be determined using an in-depth

Contractor review and analysis as specified in the PCP documentation. The Government reserves the right to identify any CFPCs as well as any additional characteristics identified in paragraph g.

[ ] (3) CFPCs are features within a product, subassembly, part and process whose variation from nominal (i.e., target value) significantly impacts safety, performance in terms of customer's requirements, or final cost of a product. Special controls should be applied where the cost of variation justifies the cost of control. These shall be developed from an in-depth Government-Contractor review and analysis of design as specified in paragraph g below.

c. The Contractor's analysis shall include processes and operations under the control of the prime Contractor and those under the control of sub-Contractor including subtier suppliers. The Contractor shall create a process flow chart for the entire process

(including manufacturing, inspection and material handling) and also perform a Process Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) for processes identified on the process flow chart affecting CFPCs. The Contractor shall identify, define and document specific controls applicable for each process and operation that affects all CFPCs. The Contractor shall: (a) conduct process capability studies on all process and operation parameters affecting CFPCs; (b) verify that all automated inspection equipment used to validate process capability has been properly calibrated and certified; and (c) conduct Measurement System Analysis (MSA) studies on all applicable corresponding measurement systems utilized to monitor process capability.

d. The Contractor shall prepare and implement a PCP. The PCP shall be based upon and include the process flow chart, PFMEA, process capability studies and MSA studies for all process and operation parameters affecting CFPCs. For each CFPC, the PCP shall describe the entire process (including manufacturing, inspection and material handling), control methods and action plans for all out of control conditions and process capability at the stated production rates. When utilizing statistical methods, a process capability index such as Cpk shall be calculated. A CFPC shall be considered to have an acceptable (and capable) process if it has a Cpk of at least 2.00 for

Critical characteristics, 1.33 for all other CFPCs, or as stated as follows: N/A. The Contractor shall notify the Government when the minimum process capability values (Cpk) of 2.00 for Critical characteristics and 1.33 for all other CFPCs, or the alternative established minimum Cpk values, are no longer being maintained.

e. In accordance with MIL-STD-1916, the Contractor may request, in writing, that alternate methods of acceptance be evaluated once the processes and applicable operation parameters have been demonstrated to be both stable and capable. Any alternate methods may not be implemented until approved by the Contracting Officer.

f. Corrective Action Requests (CARs) and Requests For Variance (RFVs) generated for identification of product nonconformances shall result in an evaluation of the PCP. The evaluation shall consider addition of new CFPCs to the contractually required process control list and require implementation of actions per paragraphs (c) and (d) above with submittal to the Contracting Officer for Government approval. If the CARs and RFVs are related to characteristics, processes and/or operations already identified in the PCP then those actions required by paragraphs (c) and (d) shall be reassessed and submitted to the Contracting Officer for Government approval. The

Government reserves the right to withhold acceptance of product until the revised PCP is approved by the Government.

g. If box b(1.1), b(2) or b(3) are checked above, the selected characteristics and applicable tools, techniques, control methods or
