performing certain contracts. Contractors placing orders under Federal

must follow the terms of the applicable schedule. To place orders,
firms will submit the initial FEDSTRIP or MILSTRIP requisitions or the

statement regarding authorization to the firm holding the schedule
contract.
The information informs the schedule contractor that the ordering
contractor is authorized to use this Government supply source and fills
the ordering contractor's order under the terms of the Government
contract.
