SAE AIR1082C

The importance of adequate component procurement specifications to the success of a hardware development program cannot be overemphasized. Specifications which are too stringent can be as detrimental as specifications which are too lax. Performance specifications must not only identify all of the component requirements, but they must also include sufficient quality assurance provisions so that compliance can be verified. It should be understood that in almost every case specifications for components will ultimately become part of a BINDING, WRITTEN CONTRACT (PO). The purpose of this document is to describe types of specifications, provide guidance for the preparation of fluid component specifications, and identify documents commonly referenced in fluid component specifications. The document as written does not represent a safety or health issue which per document rules disallow cancellation. The value of an updated AIR1082B would be limited because ARP4754 was recently updated and offers guidance on specifying fuel system and equipment and MIL-STD-461e already offers guidance on specification format and production. This document will, therefore, be stabilized.
