I don't know if there is an "easiest way," but I do know that Texas
Instruments signed a "block change" contract modification with the US
Department of Defense in which TI replaced about 65 variations of 38 base
specifications for product assembly with a set of 8 commercial ones.
I know that may sound simple, but it took a dedicated team of four TI
staff spent 2.5 years to develop a strategy and to educate the rest of
the company.
The DoD does not require its contractors to build to J-STD-001 (A or B
revisions) or any other electronics soldering process document (if you
disagree, please carefully re-read that sentence). It cancelled
MIL-STD-2000 without replacement, indicating in a letter to Dave Bergman,
IPC's VP of technical programs, that "citing any soldering process standards
as a requirement in Defense procurements is antithetical to [then] US
Secretary of Defense Dr. William Perry's mandate that the DoD specify
requirements in performance terms only." (Brackets mine.)
Thus, although J-STD-001 is viewed by the DoD as the "accepted industry
practice" for bulding reliable hardware, the DoD has "no plans" to adopt
it as a standard.
You may contact Jim Woodford at the DoD Acquisition Practices office for
help on how to specify soldering processes in military contracts. His phone
