Air Force Data Rights

Data rights drive the Air Force’s ability to

qualify new sources

– Air Force personnel evaluate the Air Force’s data

rights position and assigns an acquisition method

suffix code (AMSC)

– The AMSC assists the AF in establishing

qualification requirements and candidates for

increasing competition through alternate sourcing
