Paragraph 3, Section C of this contract/purchase order.

3.15.1 The following provides the minimum requirements for maintaining material traceability and supplements the requirements specified in DI-MISC-81020 and elsewhere in the contract/purchase order. The Contractor must develop written procedures that

implement the material control requirements stated herein and elsewhere in the contract/purchase order.

3.16 Material Traceability - The certification data report must be identified through a unique traceability number, heat-lot number, or heat-treat number, as applicable, which must also be marked on the material. This traceability marking on the material must

provide direct traceability to the material's chemical composition and mechanical properties certification data. For material produced by batch, continuous cast, or continuous pour processes, samples must be taken no less than once in every eight hours of

operation for the purpose of validating proper chemical composition and mechanical properties. Traceability must be maintained through all process operations including any subcontracted operations, to the finished component.

3.17 Material Marking for Traceability and Identification - The following are the minimum marking requirements. In addition to the marking requirements on applicable specifications, marking for traceability is required. Pipe, Tube, and Metal Bar must have

both permanent marking and temporary marking applied as specified below.

3.17.1 Permanent marking - Permanent traceability marking must be marked on each end of each pipe, tube, and metal bar. (MONEL and K-MONEL bar: 3/4 inch to 1 inch rods, and 7/8 inch hex bar may be marked on the surface near the end of bar/rod, and rod less

than 3/4 inch and hex bar less than 7/8 inch may be bundled and tagged or boxed with the traceability marking on the tag or box.) All traceability marking must be permanently applied in accordance with MIL-STD-792. An alternate marking method is permissible

provided it is an available option in the contractually invoked specification, except in instances where the material has been modified by this contract/purchase order, and differs from that specified in the specification. Electric arc marking or impression

marking is strictly prohibited on thin wall tubing. (wall thickness of less than 0.125 inch).

3.17.2 Temporary Marking - Temporary Marking must consist of:

Name or Trademark of Manufacturer, specification and grade (as applicable), size, contract number, and the traceability marking. Pipe and tube marking must also include SML (for seamless). Marking must be in accordance with the material specification and

SAE-AMS-2806, SAE-AMS-2807, SAE-AMS-2809, Table I of SAE-AMS-STD-185, or ASTM-B666 as applicable. Application must be in accordance with MIL-STD-792, type A (temporary ink stenciling). An alternate method is permissible for MONEL and K-MONEL bar provided it

is an available option (temporary marking only) in the applicable material specification, except that hot finished rod with rough ground surface 3/4 inch and under may be bundled and tagged or boxed with the traceability marking on the bag or box.

Contamination levels for ink stenciling must be as outlined in paragraph 5.2 of MIL-STD-792.

3.18 See CDRL DI-MISC-81020 (Chemical and Mechanical) - Material Certification - In addition to the certification data requirements specified in DI-MISC-81020, the following material certification requirements apply:

3.18.1 Quantitative chemical and mechanical analysis of material traceable to traceability markings is required. Material certification test reports must include the class, form, condition, grade, type, finish, and/or composition, as applicable, of the

material supplied.

3.18.2 Re-identification and re-certification of material is required when the material is subjected to a process which alters it's properties. If the starting material or raw stock is processed in a manner that will not affect its chemical composition or

mechanical properties, the original certifications for the chemical composition and mechanical properties, as required by the material specification, are acceptable. Re-certification of the chemical or mechanical properties is required if a process is used

during fabrication that alters the original properties of the material (e.g. alloying, heat treating, or forming). In these instances, the properties of the material must be re-determined and documented to reflect the altered condition. The altered material

must be uniquely re-identified. The properties thus determined and documented, are required for final certification and must conform to the material specification or the contract/purchase order requirements. When only the mechanical properties are altered, the

original certification forchemical composition must be overstamped and annotated with the unique traceability marking used with the altered material and at a minimum contain the information below.

TRACEABILITY MARKING ________________________________________________

(name and signature of auth. co. rep.)

3.18.3 Material certification data forwarded by the manufacturer must contain a signed certification that the report results represent the actual attributes of the material furnished and indicate full compliance with all applicable specification and contract

requirements. Transcription of certification data is prohibited.

3.18.4 Statements on material certification documents must be positive and unqualified. Disclaimers such as "to the best of our knowledge" or "we believe the information contained herein is true" are not acceptable.

3.18.5 If material is received without the required certification papers or with incorrect/missing data on the certification papers, the material will be rejected.

3.19 Material Handling - The written material control process must include the following:

3.19.1 All raw materials must have traceability markings (except as specified below).

3.19.2 Stored raw materials requiring traceability must be segregated to preclude intermingling with materials not requiring traceability.

3.19.3 When traceability markings will be removed by a manufacturing or fabrication process, the marking must be recorded prior to removal and be immediately restored upon completion of the process. If this cannot be done or is impractical, an appropriate

material control procedure (such as a bag and tag, tagging, and/or tote box control) must be employed. The material control procedure must provide a method of positive control to preclude commingling of heats/lots or loss of traceability. The traceability

marking must be reapplied upon completion of the final manufacturing process.

3.19.4 Purchase orders for raw material must specify that the material be traceable to material certification test reports by traceability markings on the material and identified on the test reports. The certification data requirements contained in

DI-MISC-81020 must be invoked by the prime contractor on all subcontractors supplying Level I material.

3.19.5 The material control process must include requirements for the maintenance of traceability for items sent out for subcontracted operations. If such operations would remove traceability markings, purchase or work orders must specify a method and marking

location for remarking. The contractor must also ensure that subcontractor production controls are adequate to preclude commingling of materials during processing.

3.20 Receiving inspection -

3.20.1 Products and services produced by sub-tier suppliers for incorporation in the contract end item must be subject to inspection or audit at the time of receipt by the prime prior to further processing within the prime contractor's plant or shipment to

another location.

3.20.2 Receiving Inspection must include as a minimum -

Verification that the traceability marking on the material agrees with that on the certification test reports.
