IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT EXPORT CONTROL DOCUMENTATION:
This RFP contains Export Controlled documentation. Access to RFP details will only be granted through System for Award Management (SAM) requests. Please register on beta.SAM.gov to obtain all RFP information.

See https://www.dla.mil/HQ/LogisticsOperations/Services/JCP/ for details on required documentation. Please ensure the company address submitted on the DD2345 is EXACTLY the same as the address registered in SAM (www.SAM.gov); any deviation in address with cause the form to be returned to the contractor for correction. This complete process can take a few weeks and can only be done through the mail due to original signature. Since electronic transmission is not permitted by the Joint Certification Program (JCP), it is advised that interested parties submit their documentation to JCP as soon as possible. Certification by JCP is valid for a 5-year period.

Once approved by the JCP, sources will then need to contact the Federal Service Desk to have their registration updated with export control access (JCP certified) and complete the process at https://www.fsd.gov/ . This takes approximately 3 days to complete the process. Once your beta.SAM.gov registration has been updated, please submit your request for access for the documentation of this requirement using your Marketing Partner Identification Number (MPIN).
