* 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 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 for 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 acceptance
of defective material.
4.2 Government verification. Quality assurance operations performed by the contractor will
be subject to Government verification at unscheduled intervals. Verification will consist of
observation of the operations to determine that practices, methods, and procedures of the
contractor's inspection are being properly applied. Failure of the contractor to promptly correct
product deficiencies discovered shall be cause for suspension of acceptance until correction has
been made or until conformance of product to specification criteria has been demonstrated.
* 4.3 First production vehicle inspection. The first vehicle produced under the contract shall
be inspected by the contractor at his plant under the direction and in the presence of Government
representatives. The purpose of the inspection, shall be to determine vehicle conformity to the
requirements of the contract. Acceptance of the first production vehicle shall not constitute a
waiver by the Government of its rights under the provisions of the contract.
4.3.1 Vehicle weight. The first production vehicle shall be weighed to determine curb
weight and distribution of curb weight on front and rear axles. The imposed loading on the front
and rear axles will be computed using curb weight and payload distributed as specified in 3.4.
The rated capacity of the axles, suspension system and tires shall be compared to the loads
imposed on them to determine if they conform to contract requirements.
* 4.3.2 Road test. The first vehicle for each contract line item number (CLIN) under contract
shall be road tested with and without payload. The road test shall be for the distance required in
table II, corresponding to the number of vehicles being procured under the specific contract line
item number (CLIN). The test shall be conducted by the contractor under the direction of
Government representatives. The test shall be conducted over a test course approved by the
procuring activity and meeting the requirements of table III. The vehicle shall be inspected
periodically during and at the completion of the test by the contractor.
