Abstract: The clause DFARS 252.246-70XX, Sources of Electronic Parts, includes the requirement that DoD contractors and subcontractors that are not the original component manufacturer are required to notify the contracting officer if it is not possible to obtain an electronic part from a contractor-approved supplier. This notification is required to comply with law. The information is used to ensure the contractor performs the additional inspection, testing, and authentication required when an electronic part is not obtained from a contractor-approved supplier.
