Second, carefully controlled and split samples should be sent from one site to another in an attempt to reach agreement. Should there be a failure to achieve resolution, Quality management from the Parties will be required to meet to work through the analysis of a mutually agreeable sample. If these actions fail to achieve resolution a qualified referee laboratory will be used to analyze the samples. This laboratory must be agreeable to both Parties prior to use. The results from this referee laboratory will be used as final authority to determine conformity or non-conformity and the responsibilities therefore if non-conforming. Financial liability is determined in the Master Services Agreement.
