4053 is not granted.
2.14.4 Tooling precedence over engineering requirements for all Aeronautics programs is defined
or illustrated in Part IV, section 2.0.
2.15 Tooling Manual PM-4053
2.15.1 Tooling Manual PM- 4053 is the Buyer’s Manufacturing Specifications for Tooling. PM-4053
is “Protected Information” and access can be granted only to Sellers authorized to perform
manufacturing, rework or repair of “specific” Buyer Furnished tooling on a continual basis. Sellers
authorized to perform manufacturing, rework or repair on a limited basis may not be granted
access. Access can be granted as determined by Buyer’s Manufacturing Engineering
organization.
2.15.2 To obtain access, Seller shall make a request to Buyer. Buyer will initiate the process of
granting access by completing an internal Form # FWP5176 that is only found on the internal
Intranet system. Buyer has the option to provide hard copies of applicable sections of PM-4053 as
necessary to minimize the need for full access to this Protected Information by Parts
Manufacturing Sellers if appropriate for minor rework, repair, alter, or manufacturing.
*2.15.3 Tool design and manufacturing requirements set forth in PM-4053 for tooling deliverable to
a Buyer are fully imposed when this Manual (TMS-MC-015) is referenced in a PO.
2.16 Tooling Used As a Media of Acceptance (MOA)
2.16.1 Any tool, including Shop Aid or Production Aid, Buyer Furnished, or Seller Owned, that is
used to drill, locate, install, assemble, or used for product acceptance that does not have a
subsequent dimensional inspection of the established feature within the same manufacturing
sequence, shall be considered tooling used as a MOA and is subject to Periodic Inspection and
Verification (PI/V) per Part I, section 11.
2.17 Key Characteristic (KC) is an attribute or feature whose variation has a significant effect on product
fit, form, function, performance, service life or producability, which requires specific actions for the purpose
of controlling variation.
*2.18 Sellers shall document all tooling used in the manufacturing process on the require FAI Inspection
Report, including Seller Owned, when Quality Clause Q2A, First Article Inspection is imposed on this PO,
and shall report such tooling as required per Part I, sections 5.0 and 6.0 of this Manual.
*3.0 INTERCHANGEABLE- REPLACEABLE “I/R”
3.1 Seller shall comply with I/R requirements imposed by this PO or IWTA and shall place all production
tools that controls an I/R feature into a periodic recall cycle as specified in this Manual. This is applicable
to Buyer Furnished or Seller Owned tooling. Part IV of this Manual provides I/R and “To Match”
coordination requirements.
3.2 Interchangeable Items - Items which are completely finished and have designed/controlled features
which allow them to be installed, removed, or replaced without alteration, misalignment, or damage to
installed or adjoining Items. Interchangeable Items require only attaching means (bolts, nuts, screws, pins,
TMS-MC-015
Revision 30
Page 10 of 104
01 April 2016
etc.) to install. Interchangeable Items do not require any fabrication operations such as cutting, filing,
drilling, hammering or forcing at the point of installation.
3.3 Replaceable Items - Items which are partially finished and have designed/controlled features which
require alteration of the Items in addition to the normal application or methods of attachment at the point of
installation. Such alterations are limited to specified areas and may include drilling, filing, trimming,
bending, etc.
3.4 Interchangeable Category Items - Items which are typically designated Items which are attached by
bolts or screws, readily removable and replaceable. Such Items are designed in such a manner that all
like Items made within the engineering drawing tolerances will substitute one for another. Interchangeable
Category Items are Items that are maintained by Seller through use of normal manufacturing methods and
compliance with engineering drawing dimension tolerances, without the use of I/R Control Media.
3.5 Seller shall manufacture I/R production tooling, only from Buyer Furnished control media, e.g., Control
Tools and Electronic Data, and shall identify all production tooling establishing an I/R feature of a
deliverable item to Buyer as specified in Part IV of this Manual.
3.6 Seller shall place all I/R Production Tools into a Periodic Inspection recall cycle as specified in Part I,
section 11.0 and 12.0 herein.
** 3.7 Marietta C-130 program utilizes “Production Design Outline” (PDO) in many manufacturing plans.
Producability Engineering utilizes the PDO, Form number GD1124 or GD1124a, to flow down specific
controlled features for spares and IR requirements. PDO’s are not typically provided as part of an
engineering package. PDO’s will establish the component Category (1-8) or Classification (I or R) along
with specific controlled features, including initial tooling for both the item and interface planned at the time
of creation. Tool Engineering and Planning Engineering interpret the PDO requirements in the creation of
the special tooling and work instructions reflected in Production Operation Instruction Sheet (POIS) and
Source Book documents. If a PDO is not provided, contact your Buyer via e-SPaR.
Note: PDO may not be available for all detail parts and are not revised once created, thus a PDO
may not reflect special tool revisions or changes since the creation of the PDO.
3.7.1 The tools specified in the POIS or Subcontract Source Book (SSB), if applicable, are
considered the MOA, see par. 2.16 for MOA tool requirement and section 14.0 for SSB
applications. The controlling feature of the tool is considered nominal unless identified otherwise.
The acceptance tolerance falls into one of two situations based on engineering. If the part is
shown as a singular component on the engineering drawing, the part feature is accepted to the
engineering drawing tolerance in reference to the tool feature that produced it. If the part is shown
as part of an installation on the engineering drawing, the part feature is accepted to one half of the
installation tolerance in reference to the tool feature that produced it. There can be exceptions to
these cases, but any exception is reflected by a Tool Set Up Drawing (TSUD) or special work
instructions on the tool or from the POIS or Subcontract Source Book, as applicable.
3.7.2 C-130 hole-patterns or positions of singular holes are verified using applicable ‘bolt-to-hole’
tolerance analysis. For this method, calculations are based on Maximum Material Conditions
(MMC) or the smallest hole-size and largest fastener diameter. Acceptance criteria is derived
based on one half of the bolt to hole tolerance. For example; where the MMC bolt to hole-
tolerance is .025” common to a mate joint, the maximum positional error for each mating
component is .012”. Therefore, the hole in the singular part or assembly is verified to the MOA
tool by means of a .025” undersized pin. This is equivalent to .012” on position. During this
verification, the part or assembly is secured to the MOA tool with full sized pins at positions as far
apart as practical to prevent movement. The most practical approach is to utilize check pins
equivalent to the production fastener size through holes at minimum specified diameter. There
can be exceptions to these guidelines, but these will be reflected to a Tool Set-up Drawing (TSUD)
or special work instructions on the tool, from the POIS or Subcontract Source Book, as applicable.

4.0 “TO MATCH” HOLE PATTERNS AND OTHER I/R FEATURES
4.1 The term “To Match”, when specified on Buyer engineering drawings relative to hole locations,
indicates that the dimensions including tolerances, even when met, may not necessarily ensure physical
mating of Item hole patterns at the point of installation. Seller shall follow requirements in Part IV of this
Manual.

10.13 Seller shall reference FAR 45.506 - Identification for contractor requirements of U.S. Government-
owned property. Seller shall exercise caution to ensure that Tool Code and part number identifications are
not removed.
*11.0 TOOLING PERIODIC INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION (PI/V)
*11.1 PI/V shall be a Seller process comprising the cyclical verification of “Selected Tooling” used as a
media of acceptance for a feature(s) of an item. Seller shall document and complete PI/V, if such media
exist, or as specified by PO. Once an item has completed a successful FAI or Fit Check, the PI/V cycle
shall initiate. Exceptions to an annual re-verification requirement are defined in 11.5.
Selected Tooling is defined as any Buyer-furnished or Seller-owned tool used as a media of
acceptance (inspection) for a feature of any item deliverable to Buyer, where the feature of the
item established by this tool is not physically measured or inspected by other methods.
Example of Selected Tooling that would be placed into a PI/V recall cycle: A Drill Jig
(production Tool) used to drill four holes in an aircraft part and subsequently this Drill Jig is
also used to verify the same four holes spacing, location, diameter, and depth, and Seller is
not employing any other verification or inspection method to verify these features in the aircraft
part.
For the purpose of this Manual and specific to PI/V requirements, “annual” is defined as the
duration of the PI/V cycle that shall not exceed one year from the previous date of PI/V.
Due to Legacy program manufacturing practices and variances between one Supplier’s
equipment from another, some Non-Designed tools do not have designated control media and
may fall into a PI/V category of visual verification. In this occurrence, Seller shall request
appropriate instructions from Buyer and Program personnel to determine or validate the
appropriate PI/V method for such tools via an e-SPaR. See Part IV of this Manual for
additional Legacy tooling coordination information.
**Seller shall take appropriate actions to capture/record critical feature(s) of all Non-Designed
tools that do not have control media for PI/V if such tool is used as MOA. This data will aid in
performing future PI/V.
Visual PI/V is defined in Section 11.5.
Example of, but not limited to, such tools appropriate for Visual PI/V would be ATT/19A, HRT/20A,
DLT/11A, Form Block, Dies, or similar type tools.
11.1.1 Seller shall place all Buyer-furnished or Seller-owned Inspection Gages or Check Fixtures
into a PI/V recall cycle, if such tools are used as the only means of acceptance for such features.
An example of such tool would be an inspection/check gage that is used to validate contour, holes,
cut-outs, etc., and is the sole source of validating that feature.
11.1.2 Seller shall place all tooling that controls I/R into a PI/V recall cycle.
11.1.3 Seller shall utilize the coordination tolerances provided in Part IV of this Manual and PM-
4053 or applicable coordination tolerance between tools specified by Buyer’s Tool Design.
11.1.4 Seller shall place all tooling used as a media of acceptance that establish features with an
engineering or tooling tolerance of +/- .XXX (.010) or tighter tolerance into a PI/V recall cycle.
TMS-MC-015
Revision 30

01 April 2016
Note: If tool design of “selected tooling” includes sheet with specific PI/V requirements,
the features specified on the sheet shall be re-verified on an annual basis, including all
other features established by the tool that are not verified by physical inspection or other
measurement methods.
11.1.5 Seller shall place all tooling, designated by this PO to take precedence over engineering,
into a PI/V recall cycle, and all critical features or Key Characteristics (KC’s) established by a tool
shall be re-verified on an annual basis to maintain configuration control. See Part IV for
precedence over engineering statements.
*11.1.6 Seller shall verify any feature of a tool, upon request by Buyer’s Quality representative, to
Tool Design or this PO requirement, if manufacturing discrepancies are documented and root
cause and corrective action is requested by Buyer’s Quality representative.
11.1.7 Seller’s PI/V documentation shall be a unique record system controlling the annual re-
verification of Buyer Furnished and Seller Owned production tools, check gages, and inspection
gages.
11.1.8 Any deviations from these mandatory requirements for PI/V shall only be authorized by
written authorization from Buyer by appropriate PO revision.
11.1.9 Seller shall verify the configuration integrity of Hammer Die’s, Form Die’s and other tools
subject to high wear prior to and after each production run.
*11.2 Seller shall be responsible for establishing a PI/V procedure for Buyer-furnished or Seller-owned
tools used as a media of acceptance to produce Buyer items and present proof of administering these
procedures to Buyer or Buyer’s Quality representative upon request. Tools designated by Buyer as Master
Tooling or Tooling Tools and used for coordinating purposes only, do not require PI/V but do require
unique preservation controls to ensure configuration and integrity of tools are maintained. Preservation,
maintenance and standard repair specifications are illustrated in Part IV of this Manual.
11.2.1 Sellers working to an Intra-Lockheed Martin Work Transfer Agreement (IWTA) between
Lockheed Martin Companies shall be responsible for establishing and maintaining PI/V
requirements, a procedure and process that ensures configuration control is maintained
throughout this IWTA.
11.3 Seller shall perform PI/V of Selected Tooling at Seller’s facility annually if specific instructions are not
provided by PO or IWTA. Seller shall review tool history after each PI/V to determine whether tool
performance has been such that subsequent periodic cycles can be increased, remain as scheduled or be
reduced. Seller shall coordinate any deviations from the annual requirement through Buyer by initiating an
e-SPaR and subsequently receiving authorization from Buyer’s Program Management. Seller shall receive
deviation authorization only through PO revision.
11.3.1 Sellers working under an IWTA shall use Request for Engineering Action (REA) System,
only if applicable.
11.3.2 Sellers working under an IWTA shall be responsible for control, preservation, PI/V and
maintenance as defined in this manual and PM-4053 as applicable to Seller’s Quality
Management System and IWTA.
11.4 Seller shall place all “Inactive” tooling used as a media of acceptance into storage and designate
these tools as “Inactive”. Seller shall perform PI/V on all “Inactive” tools prior to their being returned to
“Active” status. If inactive tools are no longer required, Seller shall notify Buyer and Property Management
for disposition instructions.

11.5 With an exception to Sellers working to an IWTA, and only in the absence of designated Control
Media, Seller shall accomplish PI/V by means of visual inspection in lieu of performing physical tooling
coordination. Seller shall accomplish the visual PI/V using the below criteria:
Seller shall use “Fit Check Items” or originally manufactured Items to the maximum extent
possible, if applicable.
Seller shall obtain an up-to-date quality history data file for items effected by applicable
tooling, and perform a quality analysis relative to any discrepancies which may be tool related.
Seller shall take appropriate action based on analysis results.
Seller shall perform a tool examination for obvious damage, excessive wear, and broken,
loose, worn, or missing items, e.g., both integral and removable, bushings, pins, and clamps.
Seller shall immediately identify any adverse conditions revealed as a result of the above actions
and request direction from Buyer by submitting a SATR or using the REA system, if
applicable.
Seller shall determine any adverse effect on items in work in Seller’s inventory or delivered to
Buyer; and take appropriate action to segregate, document, and notify Buyer.
Seller shall not consider shop floor planning operations, general review of tool prior to each
use in a production environment or stamped off shop planning as evidence of performing PI/V.
11.6 Seller shall request from Buyer all necessary Tooling Tools to perform PI/V coordination to Control
Media, if such Tooling Tools exist or if it is practical for movement for such coordination activity.
11.7 Seller’s digitization of Master Tooling or Tooling Tools is an acceptable alternative to Seller storing
Master Tooling or Tooling Tools at Seller’s facility for coordination activity. Digitizing data is a method of
retaining the Master Tooling features for coordination activity. Seller shall use this digitized data to perform
acceptance of features of Buyer deliverable items. Digitized data, Master Tools, Tooling Tools, and Control
Tools do not require PI/V. Digitized Data retains the same tolerances as the tool features it represents.
CAUTION: Digitized data is acceptable for this PO only. Seller shall verify that any additional PO’s for the
same deliverable items is to the latest revision for Master Tooling or Tooling Tools. Seller shall verify the
digitized masters are to the latest configuration. When performing coordination or verification of a physical
tool to digitized data, applicable tolerances apply as if performing a tool-to-tool coordination. Tolerance
requirements are illustrated in Part IV of this Manual.
*12.0 TOOLING PERIODIC INSPECTION AND RE-VERIFICATION (PI/V) RECORDS
*12.1 Seller shall maintain a unique record for all tools requiring PI/V. Such record shall list:
Tool Ownership (Buyer Furnished/Seller Owned)

2.3. Careful consideration should be used in determining NR tool types for this PO. Special Tooling should
be limited to Quality Code 2 through 5 as defined in Part I, section 8.0, as Low Dollar, Non-Critical, Non-
Complex, Non-I/R, or Non-designed, to minimize any potential manufacturing risk.
*2.4 Parts Manufacturers authorized to manufacture any tooling, shall immediately notify Buyer’s Quality
representative to determine appropriate level of Buyer Quality representative oversight throughout
manufacturing and acceptance regardless of complexity or function listed below:
Complex/Controls Configuration - Example of a complex tool would be a tool used to establish a feature,
e.g., Holes, I/R Holes, or surface or close tolerance dimensions. Example of a Control Tool would be a tool
used for coordinating other tools that are used in the manufacturing process or a tool used directly as a
gage or inspection media. Supplier shall coordinate manufacturing of such tools with Buyer’s Quality
representative to determine appropriate level of oversight required during manufacturing and or final
acceptance, if necessary, and such tools shall be placed into a PI/V recall cycle.
Controls Interchangeability/Replaceability (I/R) -All I/R Tools require Seller to coordinate the
manufacturing and I/R demonstration/validation prior to release for production use. Seller shall
coordinate manufacturing of such tools with the use of Buyer Furnished Master Tool or Control Tool and
Buyer’s Quality representative, to determine appropriate level of oversight required during
manufacturing and final acceptance.
Trial Run/Proof Load Required - Example would be a tool used at assembly and would require validation
that it performs as designed to locate, clamp, attach, or support multiple flyable details or assembly
hardware items as planned. Seller shall coordinate manufacturing and validation of such tools with
Buyer’s Quality representative, if applicable.
Non Complex Tools/Non (I/R)/Low Dollar, all similar categories - Example would be a holding or
