Subject: RE: SP0750-04-M-9839, NSN 2530-00-832-5258, KAEPER MACHINE INC. Good Morning Betty: Sep.14, Parts were rejected Sep. 20, CAR was presented to Mr. Oh Sep. 23, Revised CAR presented to Mr. Oh. Sep 27, - Oct 1, Met with Mr. Oh and gave him the calibration check off list. ( don't know the day ) Oct.4, Met with Mr. Oh. Oct 5, Presented New CAR to Mr. Oh. Oct. 7, Called Mr. Oh. Oct. 12, Scheduled to meet with Mr. Oh on Oct 13 Oct. 12, Contract Canceled Oct 13, Mr. Oh called and asked for extension to answer CAR.

Whenever I issue a CAR, I give the contractor 10 working days to answer it or ask for an extension. In this case, I would not inspect these parts until he fixed his calibration system. In this contract, Control of inspection, measuring and test equipment is part of the contract. The parts were initially rejected by me because they would not accept the contractors Go Thread Gage. I know that Euclid Machine has other contracts and if the parts are acceptable, then I accept them. I think that I provide timely responses to my contractors. I have a cronological order of events that I keep whenever this contractor calls. If you want it, I will sent
it to you.

Ed:

I need to clear up a few issues. When was the CAR issued to Euclid and for what? How long did Euclid have to answer the CAR?
this action.

I know you have to review the correction action that Euclid has recommended and either approve or disapprove

Was Euclid able to submit orders for source inspection prior to DCMA's OAR approving Euclid's correction

actions. How does this work?

Hi Betty: Not specifically, but he did imply. I would not look at parts until the corrective action is complied with. Is he even ready right now? That I don't know. He did request this morn ing for more time to attend to other more pressing
needs.

Betty, Kaeper Machine, has not contacted me for this order. I have a delegation for a OAR to do the inspection at Euclid Machine. His name is Ed Takas, I'm on leave and do not have his phone number however you may look him up in gobal. I know he has issued a couple of corrective actions to Euclid Machine for this order. To the best of my knowledge, they Euclid claim to have 40 pcs ready of 146, however in my opinion the rest of the 146 or 100 have not been product and may not be ready till Nov or Dec.
