n. Warranty. A promise or statement of fact from a seller to a purchaser on the nature, usefulness, or condition of

serves to foster quality performance by the Contractor but is not a substitute for an adequate quality assurance program.

issued by U.S. Army Aviation and Troop Command (ATCOM) Warranty Control Office (WARCO) in conjunction with the
Contracting Officer.

originate by field users. All warranty claim actions will be processed through the U.S. Army Aviation and Troop Support
Command WARCO (AMSAT-A-WC).
