| 5.5-5-1 Ensure appropriate specialty disciplines are engaged to assess manufacturing and build processes |
Phase B |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
|
Ensure the contractor engages the relevant disciplines (design, manufacturing, quality assurance, PMP engineering) to review and assess all drawings and specifications to ensure parts, materials and design can be manufactured and integrated into next level of assembly.

| 5.5-5-2 Ensure manufacturing process mapping is complete before production begins and adequate schedule exists |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
|
Ensure process mapping provides an understanding of the work flow from basic component, to assembly to unit. Ensure mapping provides insight into the length of time required to complete each manufacturing task and sequence of tasks and provides input to program schedules.

| 5.5-5-3 Ensure manufacturing and build process monitoring /control for each unit |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
|
Ensure manufacturers impose strict controls on each item in addition to detailed traceability for each item. Process monitoring should include statistical process control and other metrics as appropriate to the process to reduce variability and defects and ensure quality. Data collection should include characterization of item performance, documentation of any discrepancies and failure analysis report.

| 5.5-5-5 Ensure independent audits are conducted to verify manufacturing management and processes flow to the supplier level |
Phase B |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
|
Ensure that manufacturing quality requirements flow from the prime to the lowest level (e.g., part supplier). Ensure contractor, subcontractor, and part/component vendor manufacturing follow applicable standards. Ensure that the following is addressed: manufacturing management, process maturity, supply chain management and process control.
