The document outlines the procedures for submitting Source Approval Requests (SARs) for National Stock Numbers (NSNs) within the Department of Defense (DoD). It specifies that SAR submissions must be directed to the designated buyer for open solicitations. For NSNs without open solicitations, CDs are no longer accepted, and submissions must be made electronically via the DoD SAFE file transmission site. A request for drop-off should be emailed to the DLA Aviation contact, specifying the CAGE code and NSN. Potential issues with cost-effectiveness are noted, particularly for low-demand items. Users are encouraged to use the DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application to evaluate item demand before submission. The review of SARs may take over 180 days, with formal notification provided upon decision-making. This guide helps streamline the SAR submission process while ensuring compliance and efficiency in procurement operations within federal and military contexts.

The provided file lists various National Item Identification Numbers (NIINs), indicating unique identifiers for specific items within the federal supply system. The document primarily serves as a reference for stakeholders involved in government RFPs (Requests for Proposals) and federal grants, facilitating the procurement and tracking of items. Each NIIN corresponds to a government requirement, potentially laying the groundwork for proposals or grant applications related to these particular items. The structure of the document is straightforward, featuring only the NIINs without supporting information or descriptions of the items. This indicates the document may be intended for internal governmental use or as a preliminary reference for future acquisition initiatives. Understanding these NIINs can help applicants align their proposals with specific government needs and streamline the procurement process.
