Compliance with the Berry Amendment for specialty metals is mandatory in any resulting contract, and while no security clearance is required, the Defense Contract Management Agency may conduct facility assessments to ensure production capability. Subcontracting arrangements must be clearly outlined, and all submissions must include organizational details, contact information, and supporting documentation of relevant experience.
