§ 1809.203-71 - Waiver of qualification requirements.  


Latest version.
  • When acquiring a product under a specification that includes qualification requirements either for the end item or for components of the end item, the NASA installation conducting the acquisition can waive the qualification requirements. Directing a waiver of the end item qualification requirement constitutes adequate authorization for waiver of product qualification requirements. When a waiver has been granted, the solicitation shall specifically indicate that the qualification requirement is inapplicable. Such information shall also be included in any synopsis of the acquisition (see FAR subpart 5.2).
