CDRL A015 specified that the ITAR compliance plan submitted by each offeror must address the following eight elements: (i) Identification of ITAR-controlled articles and technical data

308, the SSA is required to document the rationale for any tradeoffs made among cost or price and non-cost factors, including the reasons for the selection decision

However, this latitude is not unlimited, and the SSA must still explain why the specific non-price advantages of the higher-priced offeror are worth the specific price premium being paid

Whether the Meridian transaction is governed by the ITAR or the EAR, Halcyon must navigate a regulatory framework that imposes licensing requirements, compliance monitoring obligations, record-keeping duties, and penalties for non-compliance

If ITAR-controlled technical data must be shared with Meridian for wafer fabrication — a scenario that is highly probable given the custom nature of the GaAs sensor wafers and the need for Meridian to understand the performance specifications of the end-item defense article — Halcyon must obtain and maintain a TAA or MLA from the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC)

Halcyon must ensure that its TAA or other authorization covers deemed exports to Meridian personnel and must implement access controls to prevent unauthorized disclosure
