4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the con-
tract or purchase order, the contractor is responsible for the performance of
all inspection requirements (examinations and tests) as specified herein.
Except as otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the contract-
or may use his own or any other facilities suitable for the performance of the
inspection requirements specified herein, unless disapprovedby the Govern-
Government. The Government reserves the right to perform any inspections set
forth in the specification where such inspections are deemed necessary to
ensure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.
4.1.1 Responsibility for compliance. All items shall meet all requirements
of sections 3 and 5. The inspections set forth in this specification shall
become a part of the contractor's overall inspection system or quality
program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the specification
shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of ensuring that all
products or supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with
all
requirements of
the contract. Sampling inspection,
as part of
manufacturing operations, is an acceptable practice to ascertain conformance
to requirements;
however,
this does not authorize submission of known
defective material,
either indicated or actual,
nor does it commit the
Government to accept defective material.
4.2 Classification of inspections.
The inspection requirements specified
herein are classified as follows:
a.
First article inspection (see 4.4).
b. Quality conformance inspection (see 4.5).
c.
Acceptance test (see 4.6).
4.3 Inspection conditions. Unless otherwise specified (see 6.2), all in-
spections shall be performed in accordance with the test conditions specified
in 4.8.1.
4.4 First article inspection. When a first article inspection is required,
it shall be applied to the first article submitted in accordance with 3.1.
Unless otherwise specified (see 6.2), first article inspection shall consist
of the examination in 4.7 and all tests in 4.8. The machine shall pass the
examination and all tests to be accepted.
4.5 Quality conformance inspection. Quality conformance inspection shall
be applied to each item prior to being offered for acceptance under the
(see 6.2),
quality conformance
contract. Unless
otherwise specified
inspection shall consist of the examination in 4.7, the tests in 4.8, and the
inspection in 4.9. The machine shall pass the examination, all tests, and the
inspection to be accepted.
