Note Text

"For the Full Operational Capability (FOC) authority to apply to this Section 333 program, the U.S. Government must receive the major end items for the program before the end of the fiscal year after the fiscal year in which funds are first obligated. Every effort will be made to deliver equipment to support the program to the US Government no later than the end of the fiscal year after the fiscal year in which funds are first obligated. The goal is to deliver articles to the partner nation within 120 days after delivery of the articles to the U.S. Government or as soon as practical.

Under FOC, the provision of defense articles, training, defense services, supplies and small-scale military construction associated with delivered equipment may commence upon financial implementation of the case and may continue into the next two full fiscal years after delivery of the equipment to the partner; but must conclude before the end of that second fiscal year.

Defense articles, services, or training associated with major end items provided under this program that support the achievement of FOC may include, but are not limited to: other supporting defense articles, field service representatives; contractor logistics support; small-scale military construction (subject to separate limits); and Defense Institute for International Legal Studies training to promote respect for human rights, fundamental freedoms and respect for civilian control of the military, and new equipment/initial operator training.

If the U.S. Government does not receive the major end items for the program before the end of the fiscal year after the fiscal year of first obligation, the program does not qualify for FOC and must revert to the reduced period of performance authorized under the cross fiscal year authority.

Under the cross fiscal year authority, the period of performance for the program begins when the program incurs its first financial obligation and must conclude no later than the end of the second fiscal year thereafter."
