CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    Individuals, businesses, and organizations that have registered to 
participate in the DoD Surplus Sales Program.

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
    Individual's name, business and home addresses and telephone 
numbers, bidder identification and registration number, bidder status 
code, Social Security Number (SSN) or Taxpayer ID number, amounts paid, 
owed or refunded, data on bad checks, bid bond data, and bank guarantee 
code.

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
    10 U.S.C. 133, Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and 
Technology; 40 U.S.C. 101 et seq., Federal Property and Administrative 
Services Act of 1949, as amended; 50 U.S.C. App. 2401 et seq., Export 
Control; 41 CFR part 101-45; and E.O. 9397 (SSN), as amended.

PURPOSE(S):
    Information is collected and maintained for the purpose of 
registering bidders for DRMS Surplus Sales; creating sales contracts; 
creating cash collection and refund vouchers; recording payments and 
property removal details; indebtedness; and other actions associated 
with the sales transaction.
    Data may also be used by DoD law enforcement agencies responsible 
for auditing and investigating or enforcing criminal, civil, or 
administrative laws; the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Offices 
(DRMO) for the purpose of notifying bidders of upcoming surplus sales 
of potential interest to bidders; the Defense Finance and Accounting 
Service for the purpose of collecting and depositing payments owed to 
DRMS; and statistical data with all personal identifiers removed may be 
used by management for reporting or program management purposes.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    In addition to those disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 
552a(b) of the Privacy Act of 1974, these records may specifically be 
disclosed outside the DoD as a routine use pursuant to 5 U.S.C 
552a(b)(3) as follows:
    To the General Services Administration for the purpose of adding 
and flagging bidder's records debarred from doing business with the 
Federal Government.
    To the DRMS commercial sales venture partner(s) for the purpose of 
registering bidders for their surplus sales, creating sales contracts, 
creating cash collection and refund vouchers, recording payments and 
property removal details, indebtedness, and other actions associated 
with the sales transaction.
    The DoD ``Blanket Routine Uses'' also apply to this system of 
records.

DISCLOSURE TO CONSUMER REPORTING AGENCIES:
    Disclosures pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(12) may be made from this 
system to ``consumer reporting agencies'' as defined in the Fair Credit 
Reporting Act (14 U.S.C. 1681a(f)) or the Federal Claims Collection Act 
of 1966 (31 U.S.C. 3701(a)(3)). The purpose of this disclosure is to 
aid in the collection of outstanding debts owed to the Federal 
government, typically to provide an incentive for debtors to repay 
delinquent Federal government debts by making these debts part of their 
credit records.
    The disclosure is limited to information necessary to establish the 
identity of the individual, including name, address, and taxpayer 
identification number (TIN) or Social Security Number (SSN), the 
amount, status, and history of the claim; and the agency or program 
under which the claim arose for the sole purpose of allowing the 
consumer reporting agency to prepare a commercial credit report.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORING, RETRIEVING, ACCESSING, RETAINING, 
AND DISPOSING OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
STORAGE:
    Records may be stored on paper records and/or on electronic storage 
media.

RETRIEVABILITY:
    Individuals' name, business address, telephone number, Bidder 
Identification Number or any combination of the above.

SAFEGUARDS:
    Access is limited to those DRMS and contractor personnel who use 
the records to perform official assigned duties. Technical controls are 
in place to restrict activity of users within the application; data 
owner verifies a need-to-know for each activity and assigns the 
candidate user to a group with authorization to perform specific 
actions.
    Records are maintained in secure, limited access, or monitored work 
areas accessible only to authorized personnel. Central Processing Units 
are located in a physically controlled access area requiring either a 
badge or card swipe for entry. Workstations are controlled via Common 
Access Cards (CAC) with application specific generated forced password 
change protocols if the application itself is not CAC enabled. 
Passwords are tested for strength at the time of selection. Users are 
warned of the consequences of improperly accessing restricted databases 
and data misuse at each login, during staff meetings, and during 
separate Information Assurance and Privacy Act training. After hours, 
records are stored in locked file cabinets, locked rooms, or areas 
controlled by personnel screening. All file cabinets containing 
information subject to the Privacy Act of 1974 must have DLA Form 1461 
affixed to the outside of the storage compartment. This form reads:

    The material/information contained herein falls within the 
purview of the Privacy Act of 1974 and will be safeguarded in 
accordance with the applicable systems of records notice and 32 CFR 
part 323.

RETENTION AND DISPOSAL:
    Records have the following disposition instructions: (a) Sales 
contracts under $25,000--retain for 3 years after final payment/
closure. (b) Sales contracts for $25,000 or more--retain for 6 years 
after final payment/closure. (c) Hazardous sales contracts of any 
monetary value--retain for 50 years after final payment/closure.
