MIL-HDBK-6870B
4.3.2 Propulsion systems parts classification.
When this handbook is used to establish an NDI Program plan for propulsion system components the parts classification requirements of MIL-STD-3024 should be used.
4.3.3 Mechanical equipment and subsystem parts classification.
When this handbook is used to establish an NDI Program plan for mechanical equipment or subsystem components, the parts classification requirements of MIL-STD-1798 should be used.
4.4 NDI Requirements Review Board (NDIRRB).
The contractor should establish a Nondestructive Inspection Requirements Review Board (NDIRRB) for oversight and execution of the NDI Program. The NDIRRB should be formed early in the design phase to review and assess product form concepts for inspectability in terms of process control and quality monitoring. The NDIRRB should also be responsible for review and approval of inspection methods and detectability assumptions implemented in the Force Structures Maintenance Plan. The board's decisions are subject to governmental/customer approval. The government/customer should retain the right of disapproval of NDIRRB decisions.
4.4.1 Purpose.
The NDIRRB should:
a. Review and approve the NDI Program Plan
b. Production Inspections: Determine the nondestructive inspection requirements for those components identified in accordance with 4.3 and assure that the most appropriate inspection methods(s) have been selected for the components being tested, and that the level of inspection is commensurate with the quality required.
c. Sustainment Inspections: Determine the nondestructive inspection processes, procedures and technologies required to maintain the integrity of components throughout their service life.
d. Determine the requirements for demonstration of NDI capability (e.g., MIL-HDBK-
1823) for inspection processes implemented in all phases of the program.
4.4.2 NDI Requirements Review Board (NDIRRB) Membership.
The NDIRRB should be comprised of prime contractor, major subcontractor and government NDI, ASIP design and materials and processes (M&P) experts. The government program office should designate an independent government team to participate as representatives to the NDIRRB. The government representatives should also include subject matter experts (SMEs) from the respective service's NDI Program Office, research laboratories, depot maintenance facilities, and using commands. The NDIRRB may be augmented with independent non- governmental SMEs as required. The mission of this board is advisory and thus has no authority to direct a contractor, subcontractor, or government agency to take any action as a result of its findings. The NDIRRB provides recommendations to the prime contractor, major subcontractors, SPO and/or SPM.
