    The document outlines the process for submitting Source Approval Requests (SARs) for National Stock Numbers (NSNs) to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation. It specifies that SARs should be sent directly to the buyer for open solicitations and provides alternative submission methods for NSNs without open solicitations, emphasizing the use of the DoD SAFE file transmission site. The submission process requires an email request to obtain a drop-off link for file upload, and includes important details like CAGE code and NSN identification. Furthermore, the document highlights that SARs may not be processed if deemed cost-ineffective due to low item demand and outlines the 180-day review timeline. For further assistance, the document encourages direct communication with DLA Aviation. Overall, it serves as a procedural guideline aimed at streamlining the SAR submission process within the context of federal procurement activities.
    The Aviation Source Approval and Management Handbook outlines procedures for approving sources of aviation components and parts critical to safety. It addresses the management of Critical Safety Items (CSIs) and ensures that items meet stringent quality standards through detailed Source Approval Requests (SAR). Key topics include the types of sources eligible for approval, roles and responsibilities of procuring activities, and procedures for obtaining source approval, including risk management. Approval is dependent on a thorough evaluation of an alternate source's capability to manufacture or maintain items to the same standards as the original equipment manufacturers. The handbook emphasizes the need for quality assurance, technical reviews, and adherence to various federal regulations. It also outlines the processes for local purchasing, surplus materials, and reverse engineering. The document is relevant to government RFPs, federal grants, and local RFPs, aiming to enhance competition, efficiency, and the safety of aviation components.
