The goal of reporting counterfeit and
suspect counterfeit items and common items that have a critical or
major nonconformance into GIDEP is to avoid, detect, and address
nonconforming or counterfeit parts in the supply chain. This
information will be used by the Government to address and detect
nonconforming and counterfeit items. Perhaps more important, this
information will be available to businesses for searching prior to
placing orders, thus enabling the avoidance of purchasing
counterfeit items in the first place.
