The Naval Surface Warfare Center requires hydrostatic testing for JAU-8 Male and Female Bodies, specifically a 2% sample. Vendors must conduct tests using industry best practices, sealing threads to prevent damage during disassembly. Parts must withstand 14,000-15,000 PSI for at least 15 seconds without pressure loss, deformation, or mechanical failure. After testing, parts need cleaning and passivation per ASTM A380/A380M. Contractors must provide Certificates of Compliance for all components, including sub-vendor processes, and maintain quality controls and documentation for non-conforming materials for at least one year post-contract. The government will perform a 100% inspection at the destination for final acceptance, reserving the right to increase sample sizes or accept defects on a case-by-case waiver.

This government contract administration plan outlines the division of duties for contract TBD, ensuring efficient management. The Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) handles pre-award information, scope changes, and COR monitoring.
