16 The International Agreement: Important Security Assistance Safety Tips

17 17 Tip 1: Scope Requirements Well Affordability of the Total Package Approach Hybrid and follow-on FMS to support Direct Commercial Sale Non-Standard FMS Products/Support Articles not in US Inventory (at all or as implemented) Requires unique development & integration technologies Drives acquisition, test, certification processes Managing Partner Expectations is Critical and requires full US Team Engagement

18 18 Tip 2: Plan for LOA Due Diligence Congressional Notification SAF/IA Releasability Determination Foreign Disclosure ITAR LOA Detailed Development Coordination DSCA State Dept LOA Acceptance

19 Tip 3: Mitigate Technology Tensions 19 US Game Changers Development Cost Recoupment National Security Time to vet tech issues COCOM Desires Interoperability Global Strategy Partner Nation Expectations

20 Tip 4: Play a Team Sport FMS and DCS are two sides of the Security Cooperation sales coin Early and effective communication is the key to success DoD supports US Defense companies in the pursuit of DCS but remains impartial Can endorse one product when directed, based upon interoperability, support, and competition factors Embassy focal point is the Security Cooperation Office (SCO)

21 Tip 5: Play a Contact Sport Personal relationships are a key foundation for successful FMS or DCS programs and a key tenet of US Security Cooperation objectives Make an effort to make it personal Credibility Face with a name Culturally sensitive
