Please refer to the RFQs or Orders for the applicable document and revision level.
Copies will not be provided

When a quality assurance
specification is defined in a purchase order, the supplier’s quality
assurance system must meet the requirements of that specification.
The level of the quality or inspection system required will depend
upon the type of hardware being procured. Approval of the supplier’s
quality system may be obtained through an on-site survey of the
supplier’s plant by an Aerojet Quality Assurance Representative,
through evaluation of the supplier’s quality assurance procedure or
through evidence of acceptability of the supplier’s quality or
inspection system to other industry prime contractors.
When quality note 10 appears on the purchase order, the supplier is
required to complete the Aerojet Special Processes Certification form,
SS40809, within 30 days of acceptance
of the purchase order or prior to the start of parts fabrication/processing, whichever comes first.
When quality note 29 appears on the purchase order, the supplier is required to submit with each shipment
a legible Certification of Conformance that meets the applicable requirements of clause 29 in the QA
Terms and Conditions. The supplier may utilize the
Aerojet C of C template or supplier's equivalent (provided it contains all the required information).
When quality note 55 appears on the purchase order, the supplier is required to submit one FAI
report for each revision of the Aerojet or customer drawing.
Other events which require a FAI are defined in Aerojet First Article Inspection procedure,
PM-P02-9801. The supplier may utilize the forms on the Aerojet First Article Inspection
Report template or supplier's equivalent (provided it contains all the required information).
If a nonconformance is discovered by the supplier, and if MRB authority has not been granted per SS40805
QA Terms and Conditions, or per SS40811 Automotive QA Terms and Conditions, the Supplier Nonconformance
Review (SNR) datasheet form SS40916 shall be completed and submitted to Procurement for processing.
Note: the supplier's nonconformance report may be submitted provided that it addresses the root cause
and corrective/preventive action. NONCONFORMING ITEMS SHALL NOT BE SHIPPED UNLESS SPECIFICALLY
