Purpose: Defense government agencies in the world continuously try to improve operational efficiency in government quality assurance activities. The purpose of this paper is to propose some suggestions to enhance efficiency of government quality assurance (GQA) activities based on the analysis of the current quality assurance methods of advanced foreign agencies such as DCMA and NATO. Methods: In order to propose new directions, reviews and analyses are executed. (1) Former research results in Korea for enhancing GQA are reviewed, and their limitations are addressed. (2) Updated policies and procedures of the US DCMA and NATO are reviewed and their advantages are presented. (3) Current GQA policies and procedures are contrasted with those of US DCMA and NATO. Results: Suggestions for efficient Korean GQA activities are given in several aspects: GQA paradigm shift, clarification of GQA methods, facility-wide GQA, risk management for suppliers, counterfeit mitigation policy, data collection and control. Conclusion: Reviews on the government quality assurance policies and procedures of DTaQ, DCMA, and NATO are executed and compared with each other. The results of this research are expected to be useful guidelines to improve GQA policies and procedures in Korea, making it possible to realize more efficient GQA activities in Korea.

Purpose: The study proposes extended application of reviewing and developing international quality assurance system for useful and practical quality stabilization of foreign military product. There are several problems with quality assurance activities for foreign military products. To improve theses problems, this study researches measures and effects of entrustment of quality assurance activities to suppliers group abroad by utilizing the system. Methods: In order to carry out the research, consignment system for international quality assurance activity of advanced country has been analysed through this study. By applying the consignment system to the case of foreign military product, the possibility and effects of consignment is researched. Results: Through this study the procedure and substance of the international quality assurance system is verified. The quality assurance activities were consigned to suppliers group by utilizing the system, thus application basis for international quality assurace activities is established. Conclusion: Defense Import through The Quality Assurance System of trade countries using the International Quality Assurance System suggests the solution to endemic problems. The Introduction Military Product with the Quality Assurance System of Korean Government improves the competitiveness of defense export.

A Neotec infrared instrument was evaluated for determination of protein contents of wheat and barley. Correlation coefficients between protein content determined on the instrument and by the Kjeldahl method were highly significant (0.97 to 0.98). Accuracy of analyses, measured by the standard error of a single test was 0.07 to 0.16, giving a coefficient of variability of 0.6 to 1. 1%. Method of grinding samples affected particle size and type. Particle size did not directly influence protein values; however, greater accuracy and reproducibility were achieved with smaller particle sizes. Packing density inside the loading tell also influenced the analytical results.
