analysis of the cause of the failure, corrective action proposed, and the extent of retest proposed.
4.4.4.2 Test discrepancy. Any discrepancy that occurs during testing shall be reported to the acquiring activity
within 24 hours. Unless otherwise advised by the acquiring activity, testing shall continue. The contractor shall
prepare a discrepancy report for acquiring activity approval including a description of the discrepancy, an analysis of
the cause of the discrepancy, corrective action proposed, and the extent of retest if applicable.
4.4.5 First article provisions. First article provisions, engineering data, and test reports as specified in 4.9 herein
shall be furnished to the acquiring activity for review and approval.
4.5 Conformance inspection. Prior to conducting conformance inspection, the first article test program (see 4.4)
shall be conducted by the contractor, and approved by the acquiring activity; and the equipment(s) to be subjected to
conformance inspection shall be certified by the contractor as being identical to the approved first article sample(s).
Conformance inspection shall consist of individual tests (see 4.5.1) and sampling plans and tests (see 4.5.2).
