No specific location for performance or point of contact is provided, suggesting the testing and reporting activities may be conducted at vendor sites or third-party laboratories approved for military compliance. The nature of the work is critical to the supply chain, as successful FAT outcomes are required before units can be accepted into military logistics, making this a high-stakes, non-negotiable step in the deployment of defense-critical equipment.
