4.7.1 Retention of qualification. To retain qualification, the manufacturer shall submit a test report to
the qualifying activity at 12 month intervals. The qualifying activity shall establish the initial reporting date.
Each report shall consist of a summary of test and inspection results required by this specification that
were performed during the 12 month reporting interval. As a minimum, the report shall include the
following:
a.
Number of lots produced and tested, including lot and sample sizes for each lot.
b.

All reworked sampling lots shall be accounted for and identified. A summary of corrective
action taken shall be included.

4.7.2.1 Failure to meet test requirements. The manufacturer shall immediately notify the qualifying
activity at any time during the 12-month reporting period when the qualified product fails to meet the test
and inspection requirements of this specification. The manufacturer shall identify and indicate what
corrective action will be taken to correct the problem. Failure to take corrective action acceptable to the
qualifying activity may result in removal of the product from the QPL.
4.7.2.2 Failure to submit summary test data report. Failure to submit a test report within 30 days
after the end of the 12 month reporting period may result in removal of qualification for the product.
4.7.2.3 Change to manufacturing process, materials or equipment. The manufacturer shall notify the
qualifying activity, in writing, of any changes in the manufacturing process, materials, or equipment used
to manufacture a QPL product. Subsequently, the qualifying activity will notify the manufacturer, in
writing, if a full re-qualification, partial re-qualification, or no additional testing is required as a result of
these changes.
4.7.2.4 No production during reporting period. When no production occurs during the reporting
period, a report shall be submitted to the qualifying activity certifying that the manufacturer still has the
capability and facilities necessary to produce the QPL product. If during two consecutive 12 month
reporting periods there has been no production, the manufacturer may be required, at the discretion of
the qualifying activity, to submit QPL products to a full qualification inspection in accordance with this
specification.
4.7.3 Hose assembly distributor. Hose assembly distributor must be listed on, or approved for listing
on, the applicable qualified products list. The qualified hose manufacturer shall certify that the hose
assembly distributor is approved for the distribution of the manufacturer's parts. The hose assembly
distributor shall use only products supplied by the qualified hose manufacturer. No testing other than
configuration examination is required of certified products obtained from the qualified hose assembly
manufacturer, except when there is cause for rejection. All assemblies produced at the hose assembly
distributor's plant shall be subjected to individual inspection (see table III) to assure that the assembly
process conforms to that established at the qualified manufacturing plant. Quality control requirements,
including Government inspection surveillance, shall be the same as required for the qualified hose
manufacturer. Any subsequent changes regarding the sources of a hose or hose's used in a qualified
assembly shall be approved by the qualifying activity.
