          ALT I           ELECTRONIC ORDER TRANSMISSION
                          DSCR (MAR 2001)

    (a)  Offerors are advised that electronic order 
transmission is available for use via the Electronic 
Data Interchange (EDI) application. If the successful 
offeror chooses to use EDI, they will be required to 
have a compatible computer system capable of accepting 
our offers and processing EDI transactions. The American 
National Standards Institute's (ANSI) X12 Standard will 
be utilized for formatting the EDI transactions. The EDI 
system must be available for on line processing not later 
than 30 days after award. 

    (b)  The computer system must also be Year 2000 (Y2K) 
Compliant.  Year 2000 compliant, used with respect to 
technology, means that the information technology 
accurately processes date/time data (including, but not 
limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing) from, 
into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first 
centuries, and the years 1999 and 2000 and leap year 
calculations, to the extent that other information 
technology, used in combination with the information 
technology being acquired, properly exchanges date/time 
data with it. 

    (c)  The following ANSI X12 transaction sets are 
currently sent, received, and processed by the Defense 
Supply Center Richmond:

         850 Purchase/Delivery Order Transaction Set 
         856 Ship Notice/Manifest Transaction Set

    (d)  Offerors must be capable of sending, receiving, 
and processing the above ANSI X12 transaction sets and 
have an electronic mailbox on a DAASC certified Value 
Added Network (VAN).  For 856 Ship Notice/Manifest 
Transaction Sets the awardee will have the option of 
using the Web-856 application, if it becomes available.

    (e)  Information regarding EDI, ANSI X12 transactions, 
and DoD approved VANs can be obtained from the DAAS web
