(MSA)for all process and operation parameters affecting characteristics for process control. For each characteristic, 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 characteristic for process control 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 characteristics selected for control, 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 characteristics for process control, 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 accepted by the Contracting Officer.

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

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

Government.
