ACCEPTANCE OF MEDICAL AND LABORATORY INSTRUMENTATION (APR 2008 MEDICAL) - DLAD
(a) Final acceptance of equipment at the hospital will be made by the Chief of Medical Materiel Services (CMMS) based upon an inspection and test to be performed at government expense within 30 days from date of receipt. The contractor shall, in accordance with customary trade practices, submit a written copy of test procedures and performance certification for the equipment. These procedures and other government tests shall verify that the contractor specifications and government requirements have been met. The government acceptance test procedure will include complete verification of functional operation. The Government may also choose to verify the published specifications of the contractor's catalog components and to verify the performance specifications for noncatalog or modified devices.
(b) In the event the equipment is rejected as a result of the first inspection, the contractor will be advised as to deficiencies which were cause for rejection. It shall be the contractor's responsibility to correct reported deficiencies and to advise the CMMS when all corrections have been made and the equipment is ready for reinspection. Reinspection will be performed by the government with all costs incurred chargeable to the contractor's account.
(c) If there are no deficiencies or if deficiencies found at the time of inspection are corrected within 14 calendar days, date of acceptance will be the date of receipt. Failure to correct deficiencies within the 14 day period shall result in a day-for-day extension of the warranty period.
