Section 5490.404: Procedures.

(a) Prior to soliciting offers for awards of contracts requiring precious metals, contact the DSCP Precious Metals Inventory Manager,

DSCP-Y, indicating the item, quantity, and grade of precious metal required for the acquisition. The precious metals are identified as follows:

NSN Nomenclature Unit of Issue

9660-00-042-7768 Platinum granules......................Troy ounce.

9660-00-151-4050 Platinum sponge........................Troy ounce.

9660-00-042-7733 Gold bullion/granules..................Troy ounce.

9660-00-042-7765 Palladium granulations.................Troy ounce.

9660-01-039-0320 Palladium sponge.......................Troy ounce.

9660-00-106-9432 Silver bullion/granules................Troy ounce.

9660-01-010-2625 Rhodium................................Troy ounce.

9660-01-011-1937 Iridium sponge.........................Troy ounce.

9660-01-039-0313 Ruthenium sponge.......................Troy ounce.

If the required amount is available, forward a letter or TWX to DSCP-Y, requesting that the required quantity be reserved to cover the acquisition including the estimated delivery schedule.

(b) When a contract is awarded, a Military Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedure (MILSTRIP) requisition is to be submitted to DSCP-Y. The requisition must cite full Troy ounces (partial ounces shall be rounded off to the nearest whole ounce). Exception data are to be cited. The exception data are: the exact "ship to" address (the Department of Defense Activity Address Directory (DoDAAD) sometimes cites post office boxes or is not always accurate); the contract number on which the precious metals are committed for use (this is necessary for control and audit purposes); the end item application, the NSN, the part number, or any other identifying data which is necessary in order that the precious metal may be recovered from the item when it reaches the end of its life cycle; and a contact point with phone number at the requisitioning activity (this

is required in case it is necessary to resolve any problems).

(c) Transportation charges are included in the unit price. Transportation is usually accomplished by premium method (armored van); therefore, multiple requisitions to the same destination should be consolidated whenever possible. Delivery normally will be accomplished within 3 weeks after receipt of the requisition by the DSCP Inventory Manager.
