When environmental issues force material or process changes that conflict with existing publications or TDs. When directed by higher authority. Submit the EI request by routine precedence message within 5 working days after discovery of the deficiency unless combined with the HMR, in which case the combined report is to follow HMR reporting criteria. The supporting supply department and the CFA supply department are information addressees on the EI message. QUALITY DEFICIENCY REPORT.—This report provides maintenance activities with a method for reporting deficiencies in new or newly reworked material. Unless the materials are under warranty, failures must have occurred at zero operating time, during initial installation, operation, test, check, turnup, or first flight. It differs from the EI program in that it reports on possible deficiencies in quality assurance during the manufacturing or rework process. The goal is to improve the quality of work done by naval aviation depots (NAVAVNDEPOTs), contractors, and subcontractors returning reworked material to supply stock. There are two types of QDRs. CAT I. A quality deficiency which will, or may, affect safety of personnel, impair the combat efficiency of an individual or organization, or jeopardize mission accomplishment. CAT II. All quality deficiencies that are assessed to have significant and widespread material or human resource impact and do not affect the conditions of a CAT I. CAT I QDRs are reported by routine precedence message within 1 working day after the discovery of the deficiency unless combined with an HMR. A combined HMR CAT I QDR follows HMR reporting guidelines. CAT II QDRs are submitted on an SF 368 to the CFA within 5 working days of the discovered deficiency. TECHNICAL PUBLICATION DEFICIENCY REPORT.—This report applies when a technical publication deficiency is detected that, if not corrected, could result in death or injury to personnel, or damage to or loss of aircraft, equipment, or facilities. The action addressees for the message report is NAVAIRTECHSERVFAC and the CFA for the aircraft weapons system or item being reported. If the CFA for the weapons systems or material cannot be determined, the action addressee is NAVAIR- TECHSERVFAC. This report is a CAT I TPDR and must be submitted within 24 hours of the discovered deficiency. A CAT II TPDR is a simplified procedure for reporting technical publication deficiencies. Publication deficiencies include technical errors, wrong measurement values, incorrect use of support equipment, wrong sequence of adjustments, part number errors or omissions, and microfilm deficiencies, such as poor film quality. Technical publications include MRCs, checklists, Work Unit Code (WUC) manuals, MIMs, illustrated parts breakdowns (IPBs), and other technical manuals. The TPDR program does not apply when deficiencies in instructions or notices are reported. Submit improvement procedures that do not result from incorrect information contained in the publication but are recommendations by letter to NAVAIR- TECHSERVFAC. AIRCRAFT DISCREPANCY REPORT.—The ADR is a method for reporting defects discovered in newly manufactured, modified, or reworked aircraft that require immediate attention to ensure acceptable standards of quality in aircraft maintenance and rework procedures. The cognizant defense plant representative office,   administrative contracting office, or NAVAVNDEPOT will enclose sufficient copies of the ADR form (Standard Form 368) with envelopes preaddressed, in each aircraft logbook for delivery with the aircraft. Additionally, they ensure that a copy of the previous reporting custodian’s work request is furnished to the ferry pilot and functional wing. Naval Aviation Depot Operations Center (NAVAVNDEPOTOPSCEN) is the ADR screening point on aircraft commercially reworked under the procuring contract office. An acceptance inspection is performed and a functional check flight flown as soon as possible after the aircraft is delivered and prior to maintenance (other than required to complete the acceptance inspection) or further flight. Only those discrepancies noted by the ferry pilot or crew and those found during the acceptance inspection and check flight are reported. In reporting the initial acceptance of an aircraft, use "Initial Acceptance Inspection of Aircraft" as the subject of the Standard Form 368. Submit this initial 6-18
