Multiple Choice

What will be used to document nonperformance of the required testing and/or deferral of certification of the system to an at-sea test?

When a required test can’t be completed as planned, you use a formal DFS document to record the nonperformance and to authorize postponing the system’s certification until an at-sea test can be done. This form provides the justification for skipping the test, identifies which tests are deferred and for which system, names the responsible authority, and sets the timeline or conditions for when the testing will finally occur at sea. It creates an official, auditable trail so that everyone understands that certification is pending and under what terms the deferral is granted. Other forms serve different QA purposes and don’t specifically capture the deferral to an at-sea test.
