Who can bid
- Women-owned small business: the SAM.gov set-aside is the WOSB Program (FAR 19.15)
- Active United States/Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification for the offeror and every source of supply, to access the export-controlled technical data
Things to watch (6)
From the version posted Oct 21, 2026.
- Serious: Set aside for women-owned small businesses. Only businesses certified under the WOSB Program can bid; other firms cannot receive this award.
- Serious: Export-controlled drawings need JCP certification. You and any supplier you use must hold an active Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification to get the technical data, and DLA will not delay award for firms that lack it.
- Worth checking: Technical data package must be requested. The drawings are not attached; request them by email, and the DoD SAFE download link expires after 7 days.

- Worth checking: Item, quantity and terms are blank on the posted form. The form shows no part number, NSN, quantity, inspection point, testing choice or delivery terms, so you cannot price the buy without the technical data package or the contract specialist.
- Worth checking: Cost or pricing data may be required. Offers that leave out cost or pricing information required by FAR 15.4 are rated Unacceptable.
- Minor: Possible priority-rated order (DPAS). The form has a Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) rating box, which the posted copy leaves blank; a rated order must be scheduled ahead of unrated work.
