Assured Automation Becomes an ITAR Compliant Valve Manufacturer

Products,  Procedures and Facility meet the strictest standards for military applications

According to the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR ) Assured Automation has successfully registered with the State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) . We are now considered an ITAR Compliant Valve Manufacturer.

What is ITAR?

The International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) is the United States regulation that controls the manufacture, sale, and distribution of defense and space-related articles and services as defined in the United States Munitions List (USML).

Why have we become ITAR Compliant?

Any company in the United States that handles, manufactures, sells, or distributes items on the USML must adhere to Arms Export Control Act (AECA) and be ITAR compliant.

The State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) manages the list of companies who can deal in USML goods and services, and it is up to each company to establish policies to comply with ITAR regulations.

What steps have we taken to become ITAR Compliant?

Changes have been made to Assured Automation policies and procedures to ensure that the control of products and information relating to military projects is held to the highest standards.

• Training of all Assured Automation employees in ITAR policy.
• Implementation of a strict new Visitor Policy restricting access to ITAR testing area
• Construction of an ITAR restricted area designated strictly for testing and documentation of military projects
