Export control extends to technical data under ITAR or EAR, restricted to contractors with approved JCP certification, completed training, and DLA authorization. All production must occur through qualified manufacturers or suppliers listed on applicable QPLs or QMLs, with configuration changes requiring formal engineering change proposals. Product inspection is conducted by DCMA QAR at the manufacturer’s facility, and verification testing may be invoked prior to each shipment, requiring five samples per subcontractor, with one potentially destroyed during testing. No certificate of conformance is permitted. Manufacturing must comply with zero-defect sampling standards under MIL-STD-1916 or equivalent, with all attributes assigned strict verification levels. Ozone-depleting chemicals are strictly prohibited, and substitute chemicals require approval. The contractor must identify the actual manufacturer and phosphate supplier, with any post-award changes requiring formal modification.
