C.A.S. (COMMERCIAL AUTOMATED SHIPPING)

CAS for deliveries

CAS is a scalable, automated system that commercial carriers and service providers use to request appointments for picking up or delivering cargo at DoD facilities. It is a web-based environment that installations use to manage these appointments. The system helps ensure the timely delivery and pickup of goods.

Key steps for CAS delivery base access

1. Contact the receiving facility

Before using CAS, the driver or carrier must coordinate with the specific military installation to determine the proper delivery procedures.

2. Register in the CAS system

The carrier must register and create an appointment request through the CAS portal.

This involves providing information about the cargo and the scheduled delivery time.

3. Check-in at the gate

Upon arrival at the installation gate, the driver must present the necessary identification and delivery manifest. The gate guard will verify the CAS appointment, the identity of the driver, and inspect the cargo.

4. Provide proper identification

The driver must have a valid, REAL ID-compliant driver's license. The installation commander has discretion regarding access, and additional security protocols may be in place.

5. Follow installation procedures

Each installation may have specific requirements and restrictions. It is important to confirm with the receiving facility any additional access or security requirements.

Base access for commercial deliveries

For the delivery portion of your request, you must coordinate with the specific military installation. Every base has different security procedures for commercial vehicles.

• Visit the installation's website: Use the "Military Installations" program on

Military OneSource to find contact information for a specific base.

• Contact the Visitors Center: The base's Visitor Control Center is the office responsible for issuing passes to non-DoD personnel, including commercial delivery drivers. Many bases require drivers to pre-register online.

• Present your credentials: Commercial drivers will typically need to present a

Real ID-compliant driver's license and other documents, such as vehicle registration and proof of insurance, to receive a pass.

• Follow escort procedures: Depending on the installation and the nature of the delivery, you may need to be escorted by an authorized person to your final destination on the base.

Notes Attachment titled “ECA Instructions”

The ECA program supports the issuance of DOD-approved certificates to industry partners and other external entities and organizations that conduct business with the

DOD. The ECA program is designed to provide a mechanism for these entities to securely communicate with the DOD and authenticate to DOD Information Systems. As of 30 December 2011, The Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command

(SDDC) will meet this DOD mandate by requiring the use of a digital certificate for industry partners requiring access to SDDC information systems. The ECA Certificates can be purchased through two sources: Operational Research Consultants (ORC), or

Identrust.

For DoD military, civilians and authorized contractors, your command/service will distribute the CAC (and CAC reader) to you.

For commercial users, please contact one of the External Certificate Authorities (ECA) below:
