6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification, awards will be made only for products which are,
at the time of award of contract, qualified for inclusion in QPD50884 whether or not such products have actually
been so listed by that date. The attention of the contractors is called to these requirements, and manufacturers are
urged to arrange to have the products that they propose to offer to the Federal Government tested for qualification in
order that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the products covered by this specification.
Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from DLA Land and Maritime, ATTN: VQE,
P.O. Box 3990, Columbus, Ohio 432183990, or by e-mail to 5998.Qualifications@dla.mil, or at
https://www.landandmaritime.dla.mil/programs/qmlqpl. An online listing of products qualified to this specification may
be found in the Qualified Products Database at https://assist.dla.mil. Application procedures should conform to the
guidelines of SD6, "Provisions Governing Qualification" (see 6.3.3).
6.3.1 Transference of qualification. Manufacturers currently qualified to MILP50884E with amendment 3 will
have their qualification transferred to this document under the conditions described in 3.3.1 and 3.3.2. The expiration
date of their current qualification will not be changed. Qualifications in process (before the date of this document) will
be performed to the requirements specification revision and amendment as listed on the approved Authorization to
Test Form, DLA Land and Maritime Form 19W, available from the qualifying activity. New applications for
qualification (after the date of this document) should be performed to the requirements of this revision.
6.3.2 Retention of qualification. Printed wiring boards verified and certified to MILP50884C (with any
amendment) or MILP50884D (with any amendment) to any product assurance level contained herein may be used
to meet retention of qualification production to this document (see A.4.5.1).
6.3.3 Legacy manufacturer certification program. The certification program of MILP50884C (unamended) was
not governed by the policies and procedures of the Defense Standardization Program as defined by DoD 4120.3M
and therefore does not exist within the QPL program of MILP50884C with Amendment 1 and beyond. For
additional information concerning this issue, see MILP50884C, paragraph 60.1.
