4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchase
order (see 6.2), the contractor is responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements as
specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in the contract or purchase order, the contractor
may use his own or any other facilities suitable for the performance of the inspection requirements
specified herein, unless disapproved by the Government. The Government reserves the right to
perform or witness any of the inspections set forth in the specification where such inspections are
deemed necessary to assure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.
4.1.1 Responsibility for compliance. All items must meet all requirements of sections 3 and 5.
The inspection set forth in this specification shall become a part of the contractors overall
inspection system or quality program. The absence of any inspection requirements in the
specification shall not relieve the contractor of the responsibility of assuring that all products or
supplies submitted to the Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the
contract. Sampling in quality conformance does not authorize submission of known defective
material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to acceptance of defective
material.
4.1.2 Inspection equipment. Unless otherwise specified in the contract (see 6.2), the
contractor is responsible for the provision and maintenance of all inspection equipment necessary
to assure that supplies and services conform to contract requirements. Inspection equipment must
be capable of repetitive measurements to an accuracy of 10% of the measurement tolerance.
Calibration of inspection equipment shall be in accordance with MIL-STD-45662.
4.1.3 Government verification. All quality assurance operations performed by the contractor
will be subject to Government verification at unscheduled intervals. Verification will consist of
(a) surveillance of the operation to determine that practices, methods, and procedures of the
written quality assurance system plan are being properly applied, and (b) Government product
inspection to measure the quality of the product offered for acceptance. Deviation from the
prescribed or agreed upon procedure, or instances of poor practices which might have an adverse
effect upon quality of the product, will immediately be called to the attention of the contractor.
Failure of the contractor to promptly correct deficiencies shall be cause for suspension of
acceptance until corrective action has been made, or until the conformance of the product to
prescribed criteria has been demonstrated.
4.1.4 Qualified products. When a part or component is specified to conform to a
specification having a Qualified Products List (QPL), the contractor shall make available to the
Government documentation of item acquisition from such QPL. The documentation shall include
the QPL date and identification of the supplier, purchase order, and quantity.
