    AVN SAR Submit Instructions.pdf
    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 submissions must be made to the relevant buyer for open solicitations and clarifies that SARs are ineligible if the items are fully competitive or if there is no open solicitation. The process has shifted to electronic submissions via the DoD SAFE site, eliminating the need for physical CDs. To initiate a submission, users must email the DLA Aviation contact, providing essential details like their CAGE code and NSN. The review of SARs may take more than 180 days, and notifications will follow the decision. Key points emphasize cost-effectiveness in processing requests, urging users to consult demand forecasts before submission. Additionally, resources and tools are mentioned for tracking NSN status and management across services, reinforcing the document's focus on enhancing and streamlining the SAR submission process in accordance with federal standards.
