	Funding: BMBF, Helmholtz Association, ILC-HiGrade, FP7 (CRISP), Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung/Foundation The EXFEL order for SRF cavities includes 24 cavities, which are part of the ILC-HiGrade program. Initially, these cavities serve as quality control (QC) sample extracted from the EXFEL cavities series production on a regular basis. The QC and quality assurance (QA) include all processing steps of the EXFEL cavities. To maximize the information from these so-called QC cavities, a surface mapping technique is applied in a second cold RF test. There the cavities delivered have experienced identical treatment of the inner surface with the exception of mounting of the Helium vessel. After the normal acceptance test at the cavity RF measurement facility, the cavities are removed from the production flow. Further quality assurance steps beginning with a detailed RF test with surface mapping followed by a high resolution optical inspection (OBACHT) are carried out to improve the understanding of defects in close collaboration with the standing experts engaged in the EXFEL production. Results of the first QC cavities tests as well as planned further R&D will be presented and discussed.

The EXFEL order for SRF cavities includes 24 cavities, which are part of the ILC-HiGrade program.
