NOTE: Problems accessing the DoD SAFE site by external (non-CAC) users are typically due to SSL and/or client certificate issues. If the user receives a warning about a problem with the website's security certificate, this is because their browser is not configured to trust the DoD certificate authorities. The user can either import the DoD certificate authorities by following the instructions in the DoD PKI PMO's guide on Install Root or they can accept the risk and click on the option to continue to the website. The current guide on Install Root can be found Problems accessing the DoD SAFE site by non-CAC users -h ttps://safe.apps.mil/about.php

In an effort to reduce paperwork and cost, all bids shall be submitted electronically through the SAFE site. Submission shall be in Adobe PDF format. You are limited to five (5) maximum files per upload (total size cannot exceed 2GB). If you have a large number of files, recommend that you combine or ZIP your files before uploading to the SAFE site. Bidders may use compression utility software such as WinZip or PKZip to reduce file size and facilitate transmission.

RECEIPT OF SUBMISSION

For the purposes of establishing whether a proposal submission is considered timely, the government considers the date and time the submission is completely uploaded into the SAFE website. For proposals larger than the 2GB capacity of the SAFE website and require multiple submissions, the Government will consider the date and time the last submission is completely uploaded into the SAFE website. Do not assume that electronic communication is instantaneous.

It can take several minutes or even hours in some cases.

The government will not be responsible for submissions delivered to any location or to anyone other than those designated to receive proposals.

Offerors are responsible for ensuring that proposals are submitted so as to reach the designated recipient. Offerors are responsible for allowing sufficient time for the proposal to be received in accordance with the instructions provided.
