QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS

4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contract, the

contractor is responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements

(examinations and tests) as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified in the

contract, 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 any of the inspections

set forth in the specifications 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 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 of assuring that all products or supplies submitted to the

Government for acceptance comply with all requirements of the contract. Sampling

inspection, as part of manufacturing operation, is an acceptable practice to

ascertain conformance to requirements; however, this does not authorize submission

of known defective materials, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit the

Government to acceptance of defective material.

4.2 Classification of inspection. The inspection requirements specified herein

are classified as follows:

a. First article inspection (see 4.3).

b. Quality conformance inspection (see 4.4).
