benefit from U.S. industry’s experience 

in participating in public defense 

procurements issued by these countries. 

DoD is, therefore, asking U.S. firms that 

have participated or attempted to 

participate in procurements by or on 

behalf of the UK’s Ministry of Defence 

or Finland’s Ministry of Defence to let 

us know if the procurements were 

conducted with transparency, integrity, 

fairness, and due process in accordance 

with published procedures, and if not, 

the nature of the problems encountered. 

DoD is also interested in comments 

relating to the degree of reciprocity that 

exists between the United States and the 

UK Finland when it comes to the 

openness of defense procurements to 

offers of products from either country.
