company's reliability as a recipient of United States
Munitions List (USML) items as well as its operations and
on-site security. Emphasize that the unauthorized re-export
or retransfer of USML items is strictly prohibited. Confirm
with the end-user that it placed an order for the items

The following questions provide guidance:
