    DD FORM 1423-1, dated February 2001, is a Contract Data Requirements List (1 Data Item) used by the Department of Defense. This form is designed to standardize and track data deliverables required from contractors. It details the reporting burden, estimated at 110 hours per response, and provides instructions for completion and submission. Key sections include fields for contract line item, data item title, authority, contract reference, requiring office, submission frequency, and distribution. It also contains sections for remarks, price group, and estimated total price. The form clarifies that respondents should not return it to the OMB address but rather to the Government Issuing Contracting Officer. This document is essential for managing data requirements within federal government contracts, ensuring compliance and efficient information exchange between the government and its contractors.
    This Engineering Data List (EDL) provides critical information for the F-16 RADAR, specifically for the CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMB manufactured by BAE SYSTEMS INFORMATION AND. Dated 22 JUL 2020 with revision 5, the document details engineering drawing numbers, accompanying document numbers, and furnishing methods for various data requirements. Key data includes HILL AFB FORM 462 and ENGINEERING DATA REQUIREMENTS-ATTACHMENT "A". The EDL specifies that the release of this data to foreign-owned, controlled, or influenced companies requires approval from the Foreign Disclosure Office. A legend clarifies furnishing method codes, indicating how data is provided (e.g., with solicitation, contract award, or upon request). This document is essential for understanding the technical specifications and data access protocols related to the F-16 RADAR component within a government procurement or maintenance context.
    This document outlines engineering data requirements for the manufacture of Circuit Card Assembly, part number 8354415P2, National Stock Number 5998-01-555-5340. The core purpose is to prevent the procurement and use of counterfeit parts. Contractors are strictly prohibited from sourcing materials from parts brokers if available from original manufacturers or authorized distributors. When brokers are necessary due to unavailability, their use must align with the contractor's policy and Counterfeit Prevention Plan (CPP). The CPP must detail business practices to prevent counterfeit procurement, identify responsible offices, and include risk assessments for unknown sources and unauthorized suppliers. These assessments must establish potential performance effects and the likelihood of receiving counterfeit parts. High-risk items, such as obsolete parts, require specific analysis. Contractors must also establish processes, comparable to those under the Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act, for detecting and avoiding counterfeit electronic parts, extending these requirements to subcontractors.
    This document outlines engineering data requirements for manufacturing a F-16 Circuit Card Assembly (Part Number: 2215250-004, NSN: 5998013998597WF). Key requirements include strict adherence to specified standards and prior approval for any substitutions or deviations. Unique Identification (UID) per MIL-STD-130 is mandatory, with specific formatting for both machine-readable and human-readable markings. For soldering, MIL-STD-2000 (or J-STD-001 if it meets/exceeds MIL-STD-2000) is required, with a critical emphasis on using leaded solder due to airworthiness and national security concerns. Contractors must notify the Air Force if lead-free solder or components are used and provide written certification of compliance if no lead-free materials are present, including an engineering evaluation of any lead-free military parts for reliability and compatibility.
    The Statement of Work outlines comprehensive preservation, packaging, and marking requirements for government contractors, focusing on adherence to military and commercial standards. Key directives include using MIL-STD 2073-1 for military packaging, documenting requirements via Appendix E and CDRL, and applying ASTM D3951 for commercial packaging. MIL-STD 129 governs military marking for shipment and storage, with specific instructions for tags and labels. The document also details regulations for international wood packaging (ISPM 15), electrostatic material handling (MIL-STD-2073-1, MIL-HDBK-773, ANSI/ESD S20.20, ESD TR20.20, MIL-STD-129), and palletized unit loads (MIL-STD-147, MIL-STD-1660). Specialized shipping containers must meet MIL-STD-648. Hazardous material shipments require strict compliance with ICAO, CFR Title 49, IATA, IMDG, and AFMAN24-604, including DOT/UN specifications and Competent Authority Approval. Contractors must submit Safety Data Sheets (SDS) per FED-STD-313 and use SPIRES for packaging instructions. The document also addresses reusable containers, discrepancy reporting via WebSDR, and access to specifications through the ASSIST website. It concludes with a list of applicable government packaging documents, emphasizing the use of the most recent revisions.
    This document outlines packaging and distribution requirements for government assets, emphasizing strict compliance with international and national standards. Distribution is restricted to DOD and U.S. DOD contractors only. Key notices include no repackaging for assets compliant with previous editions if integrity is maintained, substitution of packaging material if it meets MIL-STD-2073 requirements without increased cost, and the requirement for Level A protection for severe worldwide conditions, with Level B for security assistance items unless otherwise directed. A significant focus is on phytosanitary measures, mandating that all wood packaging material (WPM) be constructed from debarked, heat-treated wood (56 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes) and certified by an ALSC-recognized agency to prevent the spread of invasive species like the pinewood nematode. This applies to all WPM used in international trade, including pallets, boxes, and dunnage. Non-approved shipping containers, like hard plastic cases, must be overboxed.
    The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation has issued Solicitation Number SPRHA4-26-R-0051 for the procurement of various circuit card assemblies and a surveying theodolite, primarily for F-16 End Items. The solicitation, issued on December 9, 2025, is restricted to qualified sources (BAE CAGE 12436) and is a negotiated RFP. It outlines specific delivery requirements, emphasizing on-time delivery improvements and requesting offerors to propose achievable delivery schedules.
