C8.5.2. EUM Familiarization and Assistance Visit (FAV) Guidance.

The purpose of an EUM FAV is to assist the partner nation, the SCO (or equivalent organization/office), and the CCMD in developing an effective EUM compliance program. It also provides an opportunity for the DSCA EUM representative to determine the requirements for conducting a potential future EUM CAV. A FAV may be prompted by a request from the partner nation, SCO, or the CCMD to validate EUM programs. A FAV can also be prompted by the introduction of specific equipment into the region/country. Table C8.T5. outlines the timeline and formal requirements for a well-coordinated and documented EUM FAV. Informal correspondence may occur prior to these actions.

N/A.. New Section.

C8.5.3.1.1. EUM Virtual Compliance Assessments (VCAs) Guidance. A VCA is conducted similar to a CAV (See Section C8.5.3.); however, conducted remotely and without travel by DSCA staff. DSCA may conduct a VCA when circumstances exist that impede travel, including budget constraints, heightened security risk, and other limitations DSCA deems a VCA necessary. The purpose of virtual CAVs remains the same as a standard CAV, which consists of reviewing and evaluating SCOs compliance with Golden Sentry EUM Policy and partner nations' compliance with specific physical security and accountability agreements, provisos, and other terms of sale. The VCA timeline and requirements are identified in Table C8.T6. and the VCA Guidance Plan found in the SCIP-EUM database.

To assist in planning and coordination with the partner nation, a two-year CAV plan has been institutionalized through formal message notifications to the CCMDs and SCOs. The two-year plan is published at the beginning of each fiscal year, and provides a quarterly CAV schedule by CCMD and country. DSCA may, in coordination with the appropriate CCMD, perform additional out-of-cycle CAVs as necessary to execute the EUM mission.
