I was awarded a contract for 111 lanyard pieces, each approximately 6 inches long, requiring ASTM-compliant packaging. In the photo below, the lanyard is shown in a 5" x 6" poly mil bag. My question is: is this bag size acceptable, or would a 3" x 8" or 3" x 7" bag be more appropriate to allow the lanyard to sit upright with less unused space? Note: I have the 5" X 6" already in stock, so I'm using what I have on hand.

I’m trying to understand the process of submitting a Source Approval Request(SAR) with the DLA. Has anyone here gone through it? I’d love to hear about your experience—how long it took, what documents were required, and any tips on avoiding a rejection.
