Production Equipments - Equipments supplied under the
4.2.4
contract shall in all respects, including design, construction, workmanship,
performance and quality, be equivalent to the approved preproduction sample.
Each equipment shall be capable of successfully passing the same tests as imposed
on the preproduction sample. Evidence of non-compliance with the above shall
constitute cause for rejection and for equipment already accepted by the
Government, it shall be the obligation of the contractor to make necessary
corrections as approved by the procuring activity.
4.3
Initial Production Tests - When required by contract, one
of the first ten production equipments shall be selected and sent at the
contractor's expense to a designated Government laboratory for tests. This
equipment shall be selected by the procuring activity after the equipment
has successfully passed all individual tests. No other tests shall be
conducted on equipment prior to starting the Initial Production Tests. The
preproduction sample shall not be selected for this test.
4.3.1
Scope of Tests - This equipment may be subjected to any and
all tests the procuring activity deems necessary to assure that the production
equipment is equivalent to the previously approved preproduction sample in
design, construction, workmanship, performance, and quality and that it
meets all applicable requirements.
4.3.2
Accessory Material - In addition to the complete equipment
submitted for Initial Production Tests, the contractor, when required by
contract, shall also submit such accessory material and data necessary to
test the equipment.
4.3.3
Initial Production Sample Approval - Approval of the Initial
Production Sample shall be by the procuring activity upon satisfactory com-
pletion of all tests. Any design, material or performance defect made evident
during this test shall be corrected by the contractor to the satisfaction
of the procuring activity. Failure of the Initial Production Sample to pass
any of the tests shall be cause for deliveries of equipment under the contract
to cease until proper correction action is approved and accomplished. Correc-
tive action shall also be accomplished on equipment previously accepted when
requested by the procuring activity.
4.3.4
Reconditioning of Initial Production Test Sample - When
required by contract, the equipment shall be reworked by the Contractor
by replacing all wear or damaged items on completion of the initial produc-
tion tests. After reworking, the contractor shall resubmit the equipment
for acceptance.
