About this file
This is a memorandum from the Department of the Air Force establishing approved vendors for Live Tissue Training (LTT) programs. Effective January 16, 2026, eleven AAALAC International-accredited vendors have been approved for Department of the Air Force participation: Assessment and Training Solutions Consulting Corporation (ATSCC), F3EA Inc., Guardian Centers of Georgia, QRF U.S. LLC, Raven Medical Inc., SIMMEC Training Solutions, Stony Brook University, Tier One Group, Templar Medical, University of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB), and Wake Forest University.
Approval is contingent upon favorable reviews of each vendor's Animal Care and Use Program, animal protocol, and the DAF/SG Chief Surgical Consultant's approval of Programs of Instruction. Vendors must maintain USDA Registration (unless exempt under Title 7, U.S.C. and Title 9, CFR) and AAALAC International accreditation while adhering strictly to Federal laws, DoD, and DAF regulations. Any subsequent program review or inspection revealing non-compliance will result in immediate suspension of approval. The memorandum clarifies that this approval does not constitute contractual funding authorization—only a Contracting Officer may award and expend funds. All DoD-supported training contracts must contain DFARS clause 252.235-7002, and agreements not subject to DFARS (grants, cooperative research and development agreements) must contain equivalent language. Questions should be directed to usaf.afms.mbx.af-sg-research-protections@health.mil.
