MIL-PRF-38793C
4.1.2 Compliance. All calibration procedures manuals shall meet all requirements of sections 3
and 5 of this specification as required by the acquiring activity (see 6.2). The requirements set
forth in this specification shall become a part of the contractor's overall inspection system or
quality program. The absence of any requirements in this specification shall not relieve the
contractor of the responsibility of ensuring that all products or supplies, submitted to the
Government for acceptance, comply with all requirements of the contract. Use of sampling
inspections shall be at the discretion of the contractor, and in accordance with commercially
acceptable quality assurance procedures. However, use of sampling in QA procedures does not
authorize submission of known defective material, either indicated or actual, nor does it commit
the Government to accept defective material.
5. PACKAGING.
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the
contract or order (see 6.2). When packaging of material is to be performed by DOD or in-house
contractor personnel, these personnel need to contact the responsible packaging activity to
ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the Inventory
Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or within
the military service's system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the
managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM
products, or by contacting the responsible packaging activity.
6. NOTES.
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is
not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. Calibration procedures prepared in accordance with this specification are
intended to provide the necessary instructions for periodic calibration of test and measurement
equipment (see 6.4.6). These procedures are complete step by step instructions that enable the
calibration technicians to verify the original accuracy of the test instrument.
6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents must specify the following:
a. Title, number, and date of this specification.
b. Issue of the DODISS to be cited in the solicitation, and if required, the specific issue of
individual documents referenced (see 2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.3).
c. When similar test instruments are to be covered in the same manual (see 3.1).
d. If the manuals are to be delivered in electronic or paper format (see 3.1).
e. If another publication may be referenced in a calibration procedure (see 3.1.2).
f. If any other identification is required (see 3.2.2.1d).
