In this update: 1️⃣ Compliance Reminder: DLA notice on tracking devices in shipments 2️⃣ Training Opportunity: Seminar Series – September & October sessions DLA Vendor Notice: Tracking Devices in Shipments The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) reminds vendors that the use of consumer-grade tracking devices (e.g., AirTags, SmartTags, Tile, IoT or Bluetooth-based trackers) in shipments is not authorized unless approved in writing by a DLA Contracting Officer. Applies to: - All DLA vendor shipments - Government furnished property - Sensitive shipments Risks: - Security compromise of shipment details and locations - Added burden on DLA to remove and dispose of devices Vendor Responsibility:If such a device is used, vendors may be required to verify it has been removed from their account. To stay compliant: Do not include unauthorized tracking devices without prior written approval. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seminar Series with Me – Register Now Don’t miss our upcoming sessions where I’ll break everything down step by step. 👉 Register here September Session – Sunday, September 14th at 12 PM EST.
