5、ed the Seawinds, QuickScat, Deep Space 1, Stardust, and Mars 98 projects to purchase similar converters from this vendor. However, vendor process changes since MPF led to significant quality problems with the production lots for these projects. A JPL tiger team was formed to address these quality pr

Significant project costs were incurred in resolving the issues and reworking the converters.The JPL electronic parts procurement practice had been to check the date when the vendor was last surveyed by JPL Quality Assurance. Where no recent survey had been performed, the project funded a ne

Such a rating system should be updated periodically incorporating results of testing programs, GIDEP alerts and JPL internal parts bulletins.3. Pr
