DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY AUTOMATED VENDOR ACCESS TO RED/YELLOW/GREEN CONTRACTOR EVALUATION PROGRAM AND PRODUCT DEFICIENCY REPORTING AND EVALUATION PROGRAM Contact points: Automated Vendor Access, 603-431-9460 ext. 464; Red/Yellow/Green Program 717-790-2735. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (RD&A) (ABM) announces establishment of an automated system to provide electronic access to the Navy's Product Deficiency Reporting and Evaluation Program (PDREP) database. The automated system enables vendors to view their past performance data as well as their Red/Yellow/Green (RYG) Program Federal Supply Class classifications. The automated access system is provided by two generic client packages; one that provides access via dial up, another that provides access via the Internet. To use either of the client packages, a 286 or better PC is required. The user of the dial up client package should have a 9600 or better BPS modem. For access to the system, each vendor must submit a written request to the Naval Sea Logistics Center Detachment, Naval Material Quality Assessment Office (NMQAO), 80 Daniel Street, Suite 400, Portsmouth, New Hampshire 03801. The request must be submitted on company letterhead and include the requester's name, title, company name, address, telephone number and CAGE code (CAGE code is mandatory). NMQAO will provide each vendor with a password, any required software, and information on accessing their individual PDREP and RYG classification data. Effective 1 January 1996, monthly RYG classification notifications will no longer be mailed.
