for the OEM or DoD. (A similar item is defined as an item 
whose design, application, operating parameters, material, 
and manufacturing processes are similar to those of the 
item for which source approval is sought.)

         (3)  CATEGORY III - New manufacturer. The exact 
or similar item has not been previously provided to the 
OEM or DoD

    (b)  Requirements for all CATEGORIES in addition to 
the below checklist.

         (1)  Documentation shall be provided stating  if

is a nonmanufacturing source, the required information 
shall also be submitted on the manufacturer.

must comply with the Boeing Rights Guard Agreement.

    (c)  The offeror shall check below the CATEGORY that 
applies and include this part of the provision, as well as
the additional required documentation, in support of the 
source approval request.
