products which are, at the time of award of contact, qualified for inclusion in Qualified Products List QPL
No. 5593 whether or not such products have actually been so listed by that date. The attention of
contractors is called to these requirements, and manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the products
that they propose to offer to the Federal Government tested for qualification in order that they may be
eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the products covered by this specification. Information
pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from Defense Supply Center Columbus, P.O. Box
