◆ Why ITAR · 02 / 04

Defense work runs on documented chain of custody.

ITAR registration isn't a label — it's a procedural commitment that defense buyers can point to in their own compliance paperwork. We carry it because the work demands it.

§ Principle 01 / 01

Controlled work stays controlled, end to end.

ITAR-controlled drawings, STEP files, and dual-use parts are accepted through our secure RFQ intake. NDAs are available on request before files change hands. Files are handled on-site in our ITAR-registered facility. Defense and dual-use hardware run through the same documented routing that a real shop floor uses — drawing, quote, machine, inspect, ship — with traceability at every step.

◆ Defense FAQ · 03 / 04

Defense-program questions.

Compliance, controlled data handling, and production-volume questions defense procurement and engineering teams ask before issuing an RFQ.

Are you ITAR-registered?

Yes — Kontrast4D is ITAR-registered. We handle defense and dual-use hardware under ITAR, from prototype through low-rate production.

Do you have AS9100 certification?

AS9100 isn't required to discuss your program. If it's a hard requirement for your specific procurement, ask before we quote — we'll confirm fit.

What's your process for handling controlled technical data?

ITAR-controlled files are accepted through our secure RFQ intake. NDAs are available on request before files change hands. All defense work runs in our ITAR-registered facility in Salem, MA.

Do you handle both prototype and low-rate production?

Yes. Defense and R&D programs are a primary part of our work — one-off prototypes, first articles, and low-rate initial production (LRIP) runs. No minimums.

Who are your current defense customers?

Kontrast4D has shipped defense and dual-use work to tier-1 defense primes and defense subcontractors. Specific program details are protected under ITAR and customer NDAs.
