6.3.1 Technical data. It should be specified in the remarks section of
the DD Form 1423 that all technical data furnished should be written in the
English language.
6.4 First article. When first article inspection is required,
the
contracting officer should provide specific guidance to offerors whether the
item(s) should be a first article sample, a first production item, or a
standard production item from the contractor's current inventory and the
number of items to be tested as specified in 4.4. The contracting officer
should include specific instructions in acquisition documents regarding
arrangements for examinations, approval of first article test results and
disposition of first articles. Invitations for bids should provide that the
Government reserves the right to waive the requirement for samples for first
article inspection to those bidders offering a product which has been
previously acquired or tested by the Government, and that bidders offering
such products, who-wish to rely on such production or test, must furnish
evidence with the bid that prior Government approval is presently appropriate
for the pending contract.
6.5 Definitions.
6.5.1 Inch-pound units. Inch-pound units are a system of measures based
on the yard and pound commonly used in the United States of America and
defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Inch-pound
units having the same names in other countries may differ in magnitude.
6.5.2 Metric units. Metric units are a system of basic measures defined
by the International System of Units based on "Le Systeme International
d'Unites (S1)," of the International Bureau of Weights `and Measures. These
units are described in ASTM E 380 and IEEE 268 (MIL-STD-961).
6.6 Measurement system. In this specification, all measurements,
dimensions, sizes, and capacities are given in inch-pound units. These
measurements may be converted to metric units through the use of the
conversion factors and methods specified in FED-STD-376.
6.7 Changes from previous issues. The marginal notations are not used in
this revision to identify changes with respect to the previous issue due to
the extensiveness of the changes.
6.8 Safety and health requirements. The 29 CFR 1910 limits only hazard
level (noise and heat) of the environment in which reusable skid components
will be used. It does not limit the hazard level of the individual skid com-
ponent in an operating environment. The procuring activity should analyze the
existing hazard level in the proposed operating environment and specify
additional requirements necessary to integrate this new reusable
skid
component into its future environment.
6.9 Hazardous materials minimization. The manufacturer should minimize
the use, generation, or emission of materials known hazardous to the
environment during the manufacturing processes employed at his facilities.
During the production of DOD reusable skid components, the manufacturer should
