3.5.3 Configuration management. The igniter shall be a configuration item as described by DOD-STD-480,
and, as such, shall be subject to contiguration management.
3.5.4 Shipping container. For Type II igniters, the contractor shall design and demonstrate a shipping container
in consonance with the igniter development program. The acquisition documents shall specify whether the container
is to be of the reusable or disposable variety (see 6.2.1). The design criteria of MIL-STD-648 shall be employed.
3.5.5 Workmanship. The workmanship displayed in fabrication and assembly shall ensure the ability of the
igniter to meet performance requirements under all expected environmental conditions. The dimensions, finishes,
tolerances, and quality specified herein, and on applicable drawings, specifications, and inspection manuals shall
be maintained. All components and assemblies shall be free from buns, contamination, sharp edges, corrosion,
pits, cracks, dents, chipped paint, excessive wear, and foreign material.
4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
4.1 Responsibility for inspection. Unless otherwise specified in the contractor purchase order, the contractor
is responsible for the performance of all inspection requirements as specified herein. Except as otherwise specified
in the contract or purchase order, 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 specification where such inspections are deemed necessary
to assure supplies and services conform to prescribed requirements.

of the contract. Sampling in quality conformance does not author ize submission of known defective material, either
indicated or actual, nor does it commit the Government to acceptance of defective material.

To ensure success in meeting this objective the contractor shall exercise day-today control of the booster development
program and promote quality assurance in several areas:
Fabricaiton
a
.
Testing
b
.
Analysis
c
.
Documentation and Reviews
d
.
Configuration Control
e
.
Although the acquisition documents may designate another activity for some portion of the testing, in most cases
the contractor will be responsible for quality assurance in all the above areas.
4.2 Phase I - Design Development.
4.2.1 Tests.
4.2.1.1 Ballistics verfication tests. The contractor shall static fire not less than two rocket motors, incorporating
all essential features of the design approach, to verify that the ballistic performance requirements are satisfied
(see 33). Results of the ballistics verification tests shall be documented in the Design Development Report (see
4.2.35).
4.2.1.2 Energetic material hazard tests. The contractor shall generate (unless already available test data for
