However, if we want to maintain quality through all points of a product's evolution and useful life, we must recognize that the integration re- sponsibility is being removed from the OEM and must be vested else- where.

I believe in the long term that the loss of this integrating responsibility without a planned process to replace it represents the greatest threat to maintaining quality. The new ap- proach to procurement, when fully implemented, may actually result in a reduction in quality at greater expense to the Government."

He was followed by Rear Adm.

William C. Wyatt III, USN (Ret.) of ADTECH, Inc. Calling on his experience as U.S. Pacific Fleet maintenance officer from 1980 to 1985, he suggested current designs are so performance-driven that they have little margin for error in opera- tion or maintenance. Repair quality in shipyards, both public and pri- vate, is not good, with rework of some form approaching 25 percent.

He noted that even though technol- ogy has progressed, fleet equipment is slipping farther and farther be- hind. Quality parts and services are a must for the fleet, he said.

In his opening remarks, Richard

B. McFarland, executive director, acquisition logistics planning sup- port, Navy Ships Parts Control

Center, stated that the Navy is bet- ter supported now than ever before.

Supply support response time is 10.7 days, down from 14+ days a year ago. Quality control for nuclear and Level 1/Subsafe material is out- standing, but he noted it is non- existent for other programs. He de- scribed the executive level quality assurance group of which he is a key member, as a problem-solving and not merely a policy-making group.

The Navy, he realizes must rely on technical data from OEMs for quality assurance, and he said the offer of the Marine Machinery Asso- ciation to help QA working groups is most welcomed and accepted.

David M. Cote, newly elected president of Terry Corporation, spoke for the industry, voicing frus- tration over the dual quality stan- dards wherein OEMs, in parts and service support, must maintain QA systems that meet the rigid require- ments of original equipment manu- facture, while parts suppliers do not. Competition for after-market business is not a fair and equal com- petition but in truth is more a re- allocation that a completion because of various misinterpretations of the "Congressional mandate." He ex- pressed concern over the serious erosion of quality in parts and ser- vices, and forecast an increase in fleet casualty reports.

At the afternoon session, Rear

Adm. Thomas M. Hopkins,

USNR (Ret.), moderated the panel on Rights-in-Data. Well versed on all facets of the subject, the former

NAVSEA deputy commander for engineering skillfully drew out the panelists on all questions.

Ms. Colleen A. Preston, coun- sel for the Subcommittee on Investi- gations, House Committee on

Armed Services, made it clear that in enacting the recent legislation

Congress wanted fair and equitable prices for equipment and services.
