GENERAL ORDERING PROCEDURES
Ordering Procedures
DLIELC is the sole source
of procurement for all American Language Course (ALC) materials.
- FMS-funded purchases of ALC materials
may be obtained by developing a Letter of Offer and Acceptance
(LOA) to establish a new FMS case for the purchase of ALC materials.
We recommend setting up a blanket order case since it does not
require a detailed order of materials to set it up; instead, a
case value (total dollar amount) can be requested for ALC-type
materials.
- Or, purchases can also be funded
from a suitable existing FMS case. Please refer to DoD 5105.38-M,
Security Assitance Manual (SAMM), Chapter Seven: "Preparation
and Processing of FMS Cases" for instructions.
- Once the FMS case is setup, a DD
Form 1149 (accompanied by an Order Form if necessary) requisitioning
ALC materials should be submitted through one of the Military
Department (MILDEP) International Logistics Centers (see addresses
below). Click here to download Form DD 1149
and Form 1149 Continuation Sheet in
PDF Format.
