BECOMING ELIGIBLE TO BID    

NCP requires that the U.S. Government issue a DOE on behalf of potential U.S. prime contractors interested in this contract. Before the U.S. Government can do so, however, the U.S. Government must approve the U.S. firm for participation in NCP.  U.S. firms are approved for NCP on a facility-by-facility basis. 

The U.S. NCP application is a one-time application.  The application requires supporting documentation in the form of 1) a company resume indicating contracts completed as a prime contractor and 2) an annual report or set of financial documents indicating compilation, review, or audit by an independent CPA.

U.S. firms can download a copy of the U.S. NCP application from the following website:

https://www.bis.gov/about-bis/bis-leadership-and-offices/SIES/business-opportunities-nato 
The Department of Commerce (DOC) is the U.S. Government agency that approves NCP applications. Please submit to the email address provided your application and supporting documentation (as attachments). If your firm is interested in a specific NCP project at this time, please also include the following in the text of your email:

- the title and/or solicitation number of the contract
- the name/phone/email of the company point of contact for the bid documents

After approval of your one-time NCP application, DOC will then know to follow up by issuing a DOE for the contract.  DOC will transmit the DOE to the NATO contracting agency.
