Government Industry Data Exchange Program (GIDEP)

​GIDEP has been designated as the centralized database for the timely distribution of Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) data, distributed through DMSMS Notices. In addition, GIDEP distributes Product Change Notices and Product Information Notices that are used to inform product users of changes in technical characteristics or parameters in items/materials. The intent of these notices is to provide Government Activities with advanced notice of product discontinuance or product changes in order to allow these activities maximum lead time to make decisions among using alternate source, redesigning affected components of a system, or making life-of-type buys. Provides access to the following major data areas: 1) DMSMS data, 2) Engineering data, 3)Failure experience data, 4) Metrology data, 5) Product information data, and 6) Reliability and maintainability (R&M) data.
