See: https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/pgi/pgi_htm/current/PGI204_71.htm#payment_instructions

1.2 DORMANT ACCOUNT REVIEW-QUARTERLY PARTICIPATION

The Dormant Account Review, Quarterly (DAR-Q) process, is the Department of Defense (DoD) requirement to increase the Department’s and NGA’s ability to use available appropriations before they expire and ensure remaining open obligations are valid and liquidated before the cancellation of the appropriation. NGA disseminates and receives DAR-Q information to and from NGA’s Industry Partners using the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) unclassified Acquisition Research Center (ARC) website. NGA provides consolidated lists of lines of accounting for validation, of which contractor participation is mandatory.

Contractors holding NGA contracts and/or orders are required to support the NGA DAR-Q process. Each contractor must select two points of contact (POCs) to establish and maintain active accounts on the unclassified NRO ARC at https://acq.westfields.net.

Contractor POCs use the following information to register:

1.) Full name;

2.) SSN (Optional);

3.) Unclassified email address;

4.) DUNS number; and 5.) Unclassified telephone number.

From the https://acq.westfields.net homepage, click on “Register” in the upper-right-hand corner of the page; follow the instructions, and enter the requested data. Although not required for DAR-Q compliance, POCs possessing a classified email account may enter that information during registration to also create a classified ARC account.

POCs should be aware that account activation requires the registered user to validate the account by email within 24 hours of registration. Questions or problems related to the website or the registration process should be directed to the unclassified Acquisition Center of Excellence (ACE) Help IT Desk at 703-230-6300 or acehelpdesk@westfields.net.

NGA will conduct quarterly DAR-Q reviews in accordance with the DoD Financial Management Regulations (FMR). Contractors with dormant Unliquidated Obligations appearing on any specific quarterly DAR-Q review will be notified via the NRO ARC. Once notified, contractor POCs are required to validate and upload the contractors’ responses, including supporting documentation, to the NRO ARC by the due date set forth in the relevant timelines outlined by NGA and the FMR.
