The University of Arizona’s Export Control team works closely with the Contracting Office to identify contracts with NIST requirements or clauses with publication restrictions (e.g., DFARS 252.204-7012 and 252.204-7000). Export Control is also alerted when there are similar safeguards/restriction clauses in contracts that are not sponsored by Department of Defense (NASA contracts often have similar clauses).
An export control checklist is used in the evaluation process. The three-part checklist must be completed by the PI, Contracting Office, and Export Control. The checklist highlights DFARs clauses in addition to potential export control red flags.
