1. APPLICATION

1.1. This MQR applies to CSI and CAI with an Acquisition Method Suffix Code (AMSC) of C, D, K, M, N, P, Q, R, S, V, and Z within the Propulsion Sustainment Division. This MQR does not apply to items with an AMSC of G, A, B, H, L, U, and Y.

1.2. This MQR establishes technical requirements, which Potential Sources (PS) must satisfy in order to obtain Engineering Support Activity (ESA) approval to manufacture propulsion items.

2. SCOPE

2.1. The PS must have a valid Company Profile on record with the ESA in order to gain source approval status. If one does not exist the PS must submit one. Company Profile requirements are described in section 7.

2.2. In order to gain source approval status, the PS must submit a SAR. The SAR requirements are described in section 8.

2.3. The Company Profile and SAR will be reviewed by the ESA and the PS will either be made an approved source, or denied source approval. See section 10.

2.4. Source approval status expires after 3 years for CSI, and 7 years for CAI. Sources that deliver parts on government contract, maintain source approval status. See section 11.

2.5. Approved sources shall submit a Source Resubstantiation Request (SRR) prior to expiration of the current approval period (recommended 60 days) in order to renew the approval status duration. See section 12.

2.6. Any time a change to the SAR documentation occurs, the approved source must submit a Process Change Request (PCR) for review by the ESA. See section 13.

2.7. The ESA may revoke the approval status of a PS at any time per FAR 9.207.

3. SUBMITTAL CONSIDERATION

3.1. The PS should consider submitting a SAR for evaluation after determining that the USAF is in need of the subject item. This can be done by considering the following:

3.1.1. Has the United States Air Force (USAF) listed a requirement in the System for

Award Management (SAM) at https://beta.sam.gov or DLA Bid Board System

(DIBBS) at https://www.dibbs.bsm.mil?

https://beta.sam.gov/ https://www.dibbs.bsm.mil/

Page | 3

3.1.2. Has the procurement history for the item been researched and determined to be active?

3.1.3. Is the subject item listed in the Requirement Projection on the Web (RPOW)?

3.1.3.1. The RPOW can be found on the Strategic Alternative Sourcing Program

Office (SASPO) website: www.tinker.af.mil/Home/429SCMSSASPO/.

3.1.3.2. The forecasts contained on the RPOW may or may not generate due to variability in customer demands and priorities. The forecast data is for planning purposes only and does not constitute an invitation for bid or request for proposal and is not a commitment by the government to purchase the described items.

3.2. Any questions regarding SAR submission or the RPOW should be directed to either the

Air Force Small Business Office (SBO) or SASPO.

4. TECHNICAL DATA REQUEST

4.1. Requests related to any procurement announcement should be submitted to the announcing Contracting Officer.

4.2. If no procurement announcement exists, requests should be submitted to the Tinker

Engineering Drawing Public Sales Office at the following address/email:

AFLCMC/LZPEF

Tinker Engineering Drawing Public Sales

3001 Staff Drive, Suite 1AB82A

Tinker AFB, OK 73145-3041

Phone: 405-736-4676

Email: OCALC.LGLDO.PUBLIC@US.AF.MIL

4.3. Requests should identify the specific drawing(s) and specification(s) being requested, along with the solicitation information (if a procurement announcement exists).

4.4. Requests should be made on company letterhead along with an approved DD Form

2345 or Export Control License.

5. FORMAT FOR ALL SUBMITTED DOCUMENTATION

5.1. All financial data must be redacted from submitted documentation.

5.2. Packages should be submitted on a Compact Disk-Recordable (CD-R), Digital Versatile

Disc Recordable (DVD-R), or through an approved government file transfer system, in a

.pdf file format.

5.2.1. The package can be a single .pdf file with indexes linked to each element, or a series of files/folders for each element.

5.2.2. If the PS is submitting Company Profile documents at the same time as a SAR package, the Company Profile documents should be provided in a separate .pdf file and/or in a separate and clearly identified folder.

5.2.3. All documents should be scanned for viruses prior to submission.

5.2.4. If the CD-R is encrypted or password protected, provide a point of contact that can give access to the documentation. Zip files cannot be encrypted.

5.3. Packages submitted on a Compact Disk-Rewritable (CD-RW), Digital Versatile Disc

Rewritable (DVD-RW), or flash drive will not be accepted.

5.4. Company Profile and SAR packages must follow the order called out in Tables 1 and 2.

5.5. For all Company Profile and SAR submissions, a table of contents is expected.

5.6. Certain elements may not be required depending on the circumstances of the submittal. If an element is not applicable, the PS must provide a statement explaining why this is the case. Do not leave any element blank.

6. USE OF PROPRIETARY DATA

6.1. The PS is not to utilize intellectual property (IP) of any third parties without appropriate authorization of the IP owner. The PS is cautioned that no part of the government MQR is intended to endorse or encourage the improper use of IP developed by the Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or any other third party.

7. COMPANY PROFILE

Note: Any PS seeking source approval must have a valid Company Profile on record with the ESA.

Initial submission of a Company Profile should include all of the requirements listed in Table 1 and described in Elements 1-9.
