Defense procurement

One canonical walk-through for sourcing from Redoubt — registration, RFQ, MOQ, payment, and the compliance trail.

The pages below give primes, DoD contracting offices, and federal integrators a single, ordered reference for buying from Redoubt. Each section is the same walk our defense procurement team runs on a first call — the disclosures, the placeholder strings, and the links out to the existing quote, sample, and compliance surfaces, all in one place.

Registration

How to register as a Redoubt defense customer.

Every defense shipment ships under a CAGE code and a UEI; both belong to the contractor, not the supplier. Until our SAM.gov registration is active, Redoubt quotes ship under placeholder identifiers and ship-to account references, which is why the figures below are marked pending SAM.gov activation rather than a live registration record.

CAGE: pending SAM.gov activation · UEI: pending SAM.gov activation

NAICS codes we expect to register under (illustrative, pending SAM.gov activation):

332722
339993
315990
316110
423910

For CAGE / UEI confirmation, send a note through the Contact our Defense Team form below; we confirm identifiers on the first formal RFQ response so the lot traceability chain starts with the right registration record.

RFQ process

Submitting an RFQ.

We accept RFQs through three channels. The first two run through structured intake forms on the DFARS catalog page; the third is a direct line to the Defense Team for time-sensitive or classified programs.

Defense quote form

Submit MFR PN / NSN, intended end use, target delivery window, and procurement vehicle on our DFARS quote form. Pairs with full MIL-SPEC traceability on the response.

Sample evaluation request

Request a material sample ahead of formal quote so engineering and QA teams can verify material grade, finish, and dimensional conformance on the shop floor.

Direct line to the Defense Team

For time-sensitive RFQs, classified programs, or procurement questions that don’t fit the forms, contact the Defense Team directly. Lines confirmed at registration — see the section below.

Opening an RFQ does not commit either party. The current best-guidance target for a formal quote response is five business days from intake; engineered specials and lot-coded CAGE shipments may run longer depending on part number, alloy, and the DFARS clauses invoked.

MOQ & lead-time

MOQ and lead-time guidance — current best-guidance.

The figures below are current best-guidance estimates for FY procurement planning. Final MOQ and lead-time are confirmed in the RFQ response for each program and may vary by part number, alloy, lot size, and DFARS clauses invoked.

Minimum order quantity

  • Specialty bolts (CRES, alloy)250 pieces typical
  • Titanium aerospace fasteners100 pieces typical
  • Standard MIL-SPEC runs500 pieces typical

Exact MOQ confirmed at RFQ response for each program.

Lead-time

  • Stock DFARS catalog items2–4 weeks ARO
  • Engineered specials8–12 weeks ARO
  • Lot-coded CAGE shipments+1 week packaging / cert chain

Lead-time confirmed at RFQ response; ARO = after receipt of order.

Payment

Payment terms — NET-30 placeholder.

NET-30 is the standard default for defense procurement accounts. Final terms are negotiated per contract and subject to DCAA-compliant invoicing and any Prompt Payment Act considerations on the buyer side.

Standard terms — NET-30

NET-30 from invoice acceptance is the default for defense procurement accounts, subject to DCAA-compliant invoicing and the contractor’s internal approval cycle.

Government Purchase Card (GPC / IMPACT)

GPC / IMPACT accepted up to the micro-purchase threshold. Above that, the standard invoicing flow applies.

Wire / ACH routing

Wire and ACH routing available for prime contractors and federal integrators. Banking details provided per contract with the issued PO.

All figures above are placeholders pending contract negotiation; alternative terms (NET-15, milestone billing, progress payments) are available on request.
