ENCLOSURE
.

Appendix B, Criterion XVIII, requires, in part, that, "A l
comprehensive system of planned and periodic audits shall be carried ou*t to verify compliance with all aspects of the quality ass:irance program and to determine the effectiveness of the program."
Contrary to the above, the audit performed by your representa-tive at the P-X Engineering Company plant on August 22 - 23, 1972, was conducted without reference to a complete record of quality requirements.
Specifically, the audit was performed without prior knowledge or full consideration of a number of changes and revisions to the applicable purchase specifica-tions.
