    AVN SAR Submit Instructions.pdf
    The document outlines the procedures for submitting Source Approval Requests (SARs) to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation for national stock numbers (NSN). If an open solicitation exists, submissions should go directly to the buyer listed; however, SARs for items already classified as fully competitive will not be considered. The revised process mandates electronic submissions via the DoD SAFE site, replacing the previous requirement for CDs mailed to DLA. Requesters must email for a "drop off" link after providing essential details, including their CAGE code and NSN. The document stresses the importance of verifying item demand via the DLA Supplier Requirements Visibility Application and using the PUB LOG FLIS system to assess the usage of an NSN across military services. The review process for SARs may extend beyond 180 days, concluding with a formal notification letter of the decision. For inquiries, contact the DLA Aviation SAR analyst via email. This streamlined approach enhances efficiency and response time in managing SAR submissions.
    SAR Handbook.pdf
    The Aviation Source Approval and Management Handbook outlines key procedures for managing and approving sources for aviation Critical Safety Items (CSIs). The handbook emphasizes the importance of full and open competition in government contracting, as mandated by laws such as the Competition in Contracting Act. It specifies various types of sources eligible for approval, including prime contractors and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and addresses the management of sources from unapproved suppliers found in existing inventories. The document describes the Source Approval Request (SAR) process, which includes risk management, technical reviews, and quality assurance reviews to ensure new suppliers can consistently meet required standards. It also details the roles and responsibilities of Integrated Materiel Managers (IMMs) and Cognizant Service Engineering Support Activities (ESAs) in evaluating SARs. The handbook serves as a guideline for federal procurement activities, particularly those engaged in the sourcing and management of aviation components, facilitating the qualification of suppliers while safeguarding operational readiness and safety standards in military aviation support. This comprehensive approach ultimately aims to uphold high quality and reliability in the procurement of critical aviation components.
