EasyForm PACK allows DoD contractors and commercial packing-houses to successfully manage packaging and quality assurance data for MIL-STD-2073 compliance. Packaging codes pulled from contracts and solicitations are transcribed into more specific requirements for packaging, preservation, marking and even quality assurance sampling criteria. Packaging engineering, quality assurance, government sales, shipping, and purchasing functions have ready access to valued information and knowledge through the application. By dovetailing EasyForm PACK with internal processes, military contractors have seen improved bidding, planning, quality assurance and procurement processes.
Unlike simple code-look-up tools, EasyForm PACK is a productivity solution that works flexibly within a contractor’s business processes. EasyForm PACK adapts to a contractor’s practices with easy-to-use field and contract-status customization. EasySoft has gone the extra mile to improve user-productivity with advanced search, simplified packing history re-use, and an Instruction Manager for authoring and re-use of special packing instructions and specialized Quality Assurance instructions. And every time the EasyForm PACK software is opened, the Compliance-Banner alerts users when there are changes to MIL-STD-2073 and when there are updates to the software.

COMPETENCE IS A REQUIREMENT
The contractor is responsible for the performance of all quality assurance requirements as specified in MIL-STD-2073. EasyForm PACK is the only solution on the market which dynamically selects from over 40 possible inspection criteria in the standard. The solution produces a packaging inspection report which captures critical AQL requirements as found in ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 (Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Attributes) which was derived from the now cancelled MIL-STD-105E.
Though this product does a lot of good, the moment of truth is when a site-visit from your customer seeks to audit and stress-test your record-keeping, knowledge, tools, and processes. An investment in EasyForm PACK helps to demonstrate packaging competency during any on-site audits by clearly producing positive grades on multiple standardized government evaluation criteria.
ACE YOUR AUDIT
Prepare for successful Pre-Award Surveys and avoid the “No Award” recommendation
Pass the Supplier Packaging Capability Review (SPCR): DL 1095 Packaging Audit Checklist. Yes, there is even a check mark for whether the contractor has MIL-STD-2073 software or not.
Take the initiative ahead of the Packaging Post Award Conference.
Strong investment in the face of a Corrective Action Requests (CAR) for packaging nonconformance.
Contract-specific data can be found on the contract itself and includes things like the Contract Number, the Required Delivery Date, the NSN, and your CAGE Code. Non-Contract Specific data in primarily descriptive of the shipment itself such as the Ship-Date, Weights, Cubes, Serial Numbers, and Quantities within each Packing-Level.
That is like asking if you will get a ticket if you speed. Only if you get caught. And just like speeding, you'll likely feel the pain in more than one way. The shipment may be rejected and when that happens there is no payment. You may or may not hear about it in a timely fashion which means you may not be paid for a long time. You will likely have to spend considerable staff-time researching what seems to be the problem. You may be charged back by the receiving entity for them having to label (or re-label) your shipment - and it won't be cheap. We're talking hundreds of dollars. Lastly your company's Quality Performance Score with the government suffers and negatively impacts your ability to win future contracts.
Since mid-2014 it has been our experience that the government is increasing the level of scrutiny to its inbound supply chain operations resulting in increased reject rates.
This is a tough one. Throughout Mil-Std-129 there are clear requirements for the use of overlaminate on exterior containers. We do recommend for it.
