Small Arms & Tactical Equipment

[Ankit Kumar]

The gun, its parts drawing down to the tiny pin level, jigs, test equipment, material used in every single part, their qap , testing process for each single part , material process chart et al , vendor list, who make what etc just some things off my head i guess. material qap alone is quite large, we are seeing konkurs m docs from BDL for decade now and yet every time some new part doc comes out.

Plus add the appendix part. That alone is meant to ensure that a reader with rudimentary skills is able to grasp the message. That's huge.

I do understand engineering drawings , where there is need to provide every dimension , view (top,front,side)....etc all those stuff. But even with all the things detailed at minute level , quantity of document specified is too huge. Even a mother board which contains more parts does not have such huge documentation, they have literally standardized most of the parts.

Its just they are following outdated process and living in 1970's. They are simply using process to string us along and ppl in military are happy to have a project that keep can keep them engaged for a decade.

it is not just that, all the test batch certificates , inspection reports , cemilac rcma signed stuff , user manual for each, associated machinery vendor source details, their accreditation certified copies, things like that all are in the scope of technical documentation which is outsourced. You have seen amount of paperwork each vendor need to submit, coc , pricing, insurance cover if applicable, free issue material BG cover, numerous other stuff all that are part of entire project documentation work.
