MIL-F-46579D
6.2 Ordering data.- Procurement documents should specify the following:
6.2.1 Title, number, and date of this specification.
6.2.2 Place of inspection, if not at the place of manufacture.
6.2.3 First article sample requirements (see 3.3, 4.3 and 6.3).
6.2.4 Packing and marking instructions (see 5.1 and 5.2).
6.2.5 Provisions for shipment and testing of first article samples.
6.2.6 Provision for the submission and approval of the manufacturing
process (see 3.2).
6.3 First article sample.- Where a first article sample is required by the
contract, the contracting officer will notify the designated inspection
facility.
6.4 Process deviation.- A process deviation iS defined as a change in the
approved basic method of manufacture, or an operational change which alters
the metallurgical or physical properties of the item of contract.
6.5 AQL's.- The optional use of AQL values for either individual defects
or classes of defects, with individual major defect limitation, is intended
to minimize inspection agency administrative burden which might result from
an exclusive assignment of individual defect AQL's. The option also permits
flexibility where sampling inspection for acceptance is integrated into the
manufacturing process.
6.6 Intermediate Point inspection.- The classification of defects identifies
the defect characteristics (among other things) for acceptance inspection,
It may be necessary to modify the sequence of inspection stations to best
suit the manufacturing process. Inspection for defect characteristics
which will be hidden or altered by subsequent processing operations (in-
cluding unrelated operations), should be scheduled to prevent premature
acceptance which could be detrimental to the attainment of optimum product
quality in the end item.
