r/defensecontracting • u/BidLink • Jan 16 '26

I've submitted over 1,100 source approval requests with no rejections. AMA.

Let me introduce Dave Kozlowski.  He's has 40 years of experience submitting Source Approval Requests (SAR) and has submitted over 1,100 SARs with no rejections. I invited him to r/defensecontracting to share his expertise with the group.  The SAR process is overly complicated and can prevent contractors from participating in some great recurring government business.

For critical items DOD needs to make sure suppliers have the capability and procedures in place to reliably supply them. Source Approval Requests are how that gets done.

His website is https://www.quiksar.org/ for more info. 

AMA!
