In order to protect the U.S. industrial base during periods of adversity and war, Congress passed domestic source restrictions as part of the 1941 DoD Appropriations Act. These provisions later became known as the Berry Amendment (BA). The current BA Requirement to Buy Certain Articles from American Sources contains a number of domestic source restrictions that prohibit DoD from acquiring food, clothing, fabrics (including ballistic fibers), stainless steel, and hand or measuring tools that are not grown or produced in the U.S. It also excludes specialty metals. This report examines the original intent and purpose of the BA and legislative proposals to amend the application of domestic source restrictions. This is a print on demand report.

"The Berry Amendment [Title 10, United States Code (U.S.C.) 2533a] is an amendment to the 1941 Fifth Supplemental National Defense Appropriations Act, Public Law (P.L.77-29). It is the basis for a 65-year old procurement policy that prohibits the Department of Defense (DOD) from purchasing certain items or components of items, such as specialty metals, from foreign sources. The specialty metals clause has been part of the Berry Amendment since 1972. Congress took action in the Fiscal Year (FY)2007 National Defense Authorization Act to move the specialty metals provision from the Berry Amendment into a separate section, Title 10, U.S.C. 2533b."--Page 2

Congress took action in the FY2007 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 109-364) to move the specialty metal provision from the Berry Amendment (Title 10, United States Code [U.S.C.] 2533a) into a separate section of Title 10 (10 U.S.C. 2533b). Section 843 of P.L. 109-364 directed the Secretary of Defense to establish a Strategic Materials Protection Board to determine, analyze, and recommend strategies to ensure the domestic availability of materials designated as critical to national security. The Board met in July 2007 and issued a report in September 2007. In July 2008, the Department of Defense (DOD) proposed to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to implement Section 842 of the FY2007 National Defense Authorization Act and Sections 804 and 884 of the FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act, P.L. 110-181. The FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181) contains several provisions which may impact the procurement of specialty metal. Section 803 requires the Strategic Materials Protection Board to perform an assessment of the viability of domestic producers of strategic materials; Section 804 changes the requirement that DOD procure all specialty metal from domestic sources. This provision does not apply to contracts or subcontracts for the acquisition of commercially available off-the-shelf items (with certain exceptions), as defined in the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act, Section 35(c); and Section 884 requires DOD to publish a notice on the Federal Business Opportunities website before making any nonavailability determinations that would apply to multiple contracts.

In April 2004, the Secretary of the Air Force approved a permanent waiver of the requirements of the Berry Amendment for 23 commercial derivative aircraft systems, representing more than 1,200 aircraft in the Air Force's inventory. The Berry Amendment generally requires the Department of Defense (DOD) to purchase certain domestically grown or produced items, including specialty metals used in defense systems such as aircraft. Waivers to the Berry Amendment can be granted under certain circumstances. GAO was asked to evaluate the supporting evidence and analysis that the Air Force relied on to waive the Berry Amendment. GAO did not conduct a legal analysis of the waiver.

This paper explores the Berry Amendment and how this important and sometime parochial legislation has affected Department of Defense strategic procurements in recent years. It focuses on a single incident, the procurement of the Army's Black Berets, a strategic decision on the part of the Army Chief of Staff and the Army's symbol of transformation. But more importantly, it shows how this one seminal event caused doubt about the Defense Logistic Agency's ability to deliver goods in time of war. It also demonstrates how politics and parochialism can affect an otherwise benign and insignificant procurement of one piece of military headgear and move it to the center of public and political opinion, illustrating the complexity of logistics at the strategic level.
