(a) The DAF Self-Inspection program assesses compliance with federal laws, regulatory policies, DoD and DAF directives, and instructions across the enterprise. It is also used to verify adequacy of contract preparation.

(b) SCOs will manage a self-inspection program, which includes both the assessment of individual contract files and the assessment of contracting management programs contained in the Management Internal Control Toolset (MICT) Self-Assessment Checklists (SACs) as required by DAFI 90-302, The Inspection System of the Department of the Air Force, and the assessment of individual contract files. As a minimum, contracting offices must perform post-award self-inspections of individual contract files on an annual basis. The results of the assessment of contracting management programs contained in the SACs are reported in MICT by individual units. The results of self-inspection of individual contract files are not reported in MICT.

(c) For self-inspection of individual FAR-based contract files reviewed after award, to include Special Access Programs (SAP)/classified contract files, SCOs shall use the Air Force Contracting Self-Inspection Checklist.For Contracting offices listed in KT FileShare (KTFS), the self-inspections shall be performed utilizing the KTFS Inspection tool beginning no later than 1 October 2024 in order to capture self-inspection results. For contracting offices not listed in KTFS, the self-inspection summary data shall be submitted into the AFMC/PKQ Automated Self-Inspection Reporting Tool (ASIRT). For SAP/classified contracts reviewed, releasable results shall be reported to SAF/AQCS via secure means for briefing to SAF/AQC.

(d) SCOs will ensure corrective actions are implemented as a result of any self-inspection findings. Contracting offices must have a documented program for self-inspection, to include a process for closing resolved findings in a timely manner, ensuring an effective level of review necessary to close a finding, and integrating findings and resolutions into unit training.

(e) SCOs must review 8% (5% for FY24 only) of their contract actions each fiscal year. Business/contract clearances shall not be counted towards meeting the required 8% of contracting actions reviewed. Maintaining a robust self-inspection program and sharing the data results will support a DAF-wide consolidated trend analysis report for the previous fiscal year. All reviews in KTFS, summary reporting in ASIRT, and SAP/classified reporting for the previous fiscal year must be completed by 15 February of each year.
