4.3 RESPONSIBILITIES 4.3.1 MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES IN CONTRACT REVIEW

VOSKY PRECISION MACHINING CORP. will be responsible for meeting all terms and deliveries required on a Purchase Order, or of notifying the customer if this is not possible for one reason or another. Upon receipt of a customer purchase order management shall review customer’s Purchase Order accuracy of all terms and conditions. Management will, at this time, assign a Control Number, usually the Part Number, by which that contract shall be known at VOSKY. VOSKY management shall assign this number and assemble and maintain a file complete with all drawings, revisions, part lists, specifications, and requirements. This is the master file which will also contain all certifications acquired during the course of the contract’s life. Management shall then generate a VOSKY MANUFACTURING PLAN, which shall list consecutively all steps necessary to make a contract-compliant part. This manufacturing plan must be checked against the part Blueprint, Parts List, and any applicable Control Drawings, rather than any internal documents, prior to approval. This manufacturing plan should include all information required to manufacture the component in question, including but not limited to information about material required, heat treating, sketches for preliminary machining operations, sizes required for plating, coating or grinding allowances, any dedicated fixturing or inspection equipment, and a sequential listing of all outside processing. The Manufacturing Plan shall also contain reference points requiring inspections and tests, along with space to note the date a particular operation was finished, the quantity/length/weight of an item, and room for an inspection stamp to verify that an operation has been accomplished to specifications. A master copy of the Manufacturing Plan will accompany each run of a particular part from start to finish. This is the Plan that will have all pertinent dates and inspection stamps in regards to each operation. A copy of this plan will be placed in the master file for reference purposes.


Management shall also make a determination, with reference to contract requirements, of manufacturing the constituent components or purchasing them from external sources, (make or buy). Purchased components shall be purchased using VOSKY Purchase Orders, detailing exactly what is required (including sketches if necessary), including but not limited to processes and raw materials, certificates of compliance and/or additional tests. All such details shall be referenced to the assigned VOSKY Control Number.

4.3.2 QUALITY CONTROL RESPONSIBILITIES IN CONTRACT REVIEW

A copy of the contract along with all pertinent drawings, revisions, specifications and requirements shall be forwarded to the Quality Control Department. Quality Control shall set up and maintain a control file under the designated control number. Quality Control shall compare all pertinent copies of Purchase Orders and Manufacturing Plans for accuracy as related to revisions, drawings, specifications and requirements of the contract before release for general use. All inaccuracies shall be corrected immediately and any questions regarding any aspect of the contract should be relayed to the customer at this time. Once the Manufacturing Plan has been reviewed and OK’ed, the plan can be put into use and material procured at this point. Quality Control shall, at this time, before any machining takes place, generate an INSPECTION REPORT for each component of a customer’s purchase order. The inspection report should be a form listing, in numeric order, all measurable characteristics of a part, as well as all part list notes, ADCN or Engineering Order notes, special sizes noted on customer’s P.O., and any other information that needs to be inspected in order to make an acceptable product. Alongside each characteristic or note should be a space for recording the measured characteristic or note observed. Each of these items shall be circled and numbered on a Master Inspection Print that will be maintained in the Quality Control Department’s file system. The numbers on the master print shall correspond to the matching numbers on the Inspection Report. ALL ITEMS on a print must be documented. If an item appears multiple times in a print, or is noted as typical “x” number of times, then each instance should be listed alphabetically, such as #1a, #1b, #1c and so on. The applicable numbers on a report shall be filled in as they are preformed according to the Manufacturing Plan. The first time that a component is being manufactured by VOSKY, a first article report report must be made as well as a general one. The first article report will conform to AS9102, a three part form illustrated in the appendix.

4.3.3 CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES RELATED TO CONTRACTS

The customer is responsible for spelling out in a Purchase Order, all related part and blueprint numbers and revisions, part list revision levels, pricing, quantities, and delivery dates required of Vosky Precision Machining for each item in a contract. This purchase order should also include any special instructions or sizes to be maintained by Vosky during the manufacture of said components. The customer is also responsible for flowing down to Vosky, in a timely manner, any information that affects the manufacture of a part in any way. If a customer requirement changes in the middle of manufacturing and modification of the component in question is not possible at this point, then the customer is responsible for purchasing work done to that point and Vosky shall re-manufacture the part to the new specifications.


4.4 REPEAT OR MULTIPLE LINE ORDERS Items that are repeats of old orders or that, due to time or scheduling considerations, must be run multiple times in order to complete a contract, may use copies of existing Manufacturing Plans and Inspection Reports for the same items, AS LONG AS NO REVISIONS HAVE BEEN MADE. If any changes have been made to a part or the manufacturing sequence or method, either because of manufacturing considerations or Customer revisions, a revised Manufacturing Plan and/or inspection report must be made, with changes in each noted on the particular form. 4.5 AMENDMENTS TO CONTRACTS Immediately upon receipt, of any Customer contract changes, a copy shall be compared to the original order on file, and immediate action taken to assure the use of the appropriate information used for fabrication and inspection. Should the work have progressed to a point where the changes are impossible or inappropriate. All work will stop. The appropriate customer purchasing agent shall be promptly notified.

The records shall indicate the nature and number of observations made, the number and type of deficiencies found, the quantities approved and/or rejected, the nature of corrective action taken, if necessary, and the disposition of nonconforming parts, as appropriate. These records shall remain on file for a period of not less than ten years.

11.1.3 Inspections and tests are performed using standard inspection methods and calibrated instruments capable of the necessary accuracy.

11.1.4 Authorized Inspector Stamps document the acceptance of parts. 11.1.5 Nonconforming parts are tagged and segregated from acceptable parts. 11.2 RECEIVING INSPECTION AND TESTING

11.2.1 All incoming products are inspected or otherwise verified as conforming to specifications before being released for use or for further work.

11.2.2 To ensure that incoming raw material conforms to specifications, Vosky requires all purchased materials to be accompanied by written and signed certification from the supplier and chemical analysis ascertaining that the material supplied is in accordance with the required specifications. These certifications must be reviewed by Management or Quality Control and review is documented by use of an approved Inspection Stamp at the bottom of said certification.

11.2.3 Parts purchased from a vendor in a machined state will be treated as if machined at Vosky and inspected as detailed in sections 7.4 and 10.2.4 to 10.2.6. Manufacturing plans and Inspection reports shall be generated for these parts as if they are being manufactured in house. Note that any parts manufactured by vendors that are on probation due to past rejects or deficiencies in their Quality System shall be inspected 100% for all characteristics. Parts purchased from a vendor in good standing may be inspected using lot sampling methods, except for Key Characteristics, which must be inspected 100%.

11.2.4 Products that are needed urgently may be used prior to passing Incoming Inspection with the approval of the General Manager, Quality Control Manager or one of their designees. This is a temporary action used only to expedite delivery and does not absolve Vosky of the responsibility to ensure part quality. The customer must be notified of this and parts must be tagged to reflect this status until received and approved by the customer.


11.3 IN-PROCESS INSPECTION AND TESTING 11.3.1 In-process inspections and tests are performed at appropriate intervals during the manufacturing process and as specified in the Manufacturing Plan and Inspection Reports. Manufacturing Plans have places for inspection stamps to document when in-process inspections have been performed by the Quality Control Department.

11.3.2 Product conformance to specifications is established by a combination of Quality Control oversight and constant monitoring by manufacturing personnel. As noted in section 2.2.2, Vosky Management believes in operators monitoring their own work. This enables us to detect a discrepancy immediately and to minimize scrap parts.

11.3.3 No product is released for use or further processing until all of the required inspection procedures have been performed and documented, except under the conditions outlined in section 11.2.4, under incoming inspection. All clauses remain in effect when a part is manufactured in house.

11.4 FINAL INSPECTION

11.4.1 No product is released to the customer until all manufacturing, inspection, and testing procedures have been performed as per the Manufacturing Plan. All tests must be documented by means of a Quality approval stamp at their appropriate place in the Manufacturing Plan.

11.4.2 The Manufacturing Plan, First Article Report and Inspection Reports will be used in conjunction with each other to ensure that all quality requirements and tests have been satisfactorily completed.

11.4.3 The Quality Control Department is responsible for ensuring that all Quality requirements of a contract are fulfilled prior to shipment of a product to a customer. These requirements include, but are not limited to:

A) Dimensional conformity B) A review and verification of required documentation C) Verification of marking, storage, packaging, and shipping requirements.

11.5 INSPECTION AND TEST RECORDS

11.5.1 All inspection and test records for all products are maintained for a minimum of ten years by the Quality Control Department (40 years for flight safety parts and critical parts).

11.5.2 These records show clearly whether the product has passed or failed the tests according to defined criteria.

11.5.3 These records, by means of Inspection Stamps, identify the personnel responsible for product acceptance and release.
