1.  The contracting officer must submit all D&Fs and congressional notifications to SAF/AQC at safaqc.workflow@pentagon.af.mil. In the circumstance where a Justification and Approval (J&A) is required, the J&A package must be submitted with the D&F. In the case where the determination will be approved by the SPE (when it is necessary in the public interest to award the contract to a single source due to exceptional circumstances), in accordance with DFARS 216.504(c)(1)(ii)(D)(1), both the D&F and J&A, if applicable, will be staffed by SAF/AQC, safaqc.workflow@pentagon.af.mil, for approval by the SPE.
