dbulak ,

If your dealing with Pratt and Whitney, or the product your are supplying is pratt end use, they want it to be lcs certified. Lcs stands for Labratory control at source, its basically a requirement of pratt for all their incoming product to arrive to their dock to be certified in the following ways:

Dimensionally to print
Testing standards and processes ect in regards to their Pratt spec PWA 300. I dont know if this helps or not, but if you need more info just let me know, I just came back from a Pratt LCS training course.

Hi! I was curious if you could provide some additional information to the requirements. The customer is flowing down this requirement, but I don't know how to comply. Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
