ITAR-ready manufacturing workflows
Support controlled technical data without pretending software is a license.
GaugeFlow ERP can support an ITAR compliance program with customer-owned hosting, controlled data markings, U.S.-person access gates, export holds, and audit evidence. It does not replace legal review, DDTC registration, authorizations, training, or your written compliance program.
ITAR compliance is a company program.
The exporter, manufacturer, or broker is responsible for determining jurisdiction/classification, DDTC registration when required, licenses or exemptions, access controls, recordkeeping, and transfers of controlled technical data.
ITAR-ready controls in the ERP workflow
Self-hosted technical data control
Run ERP on customer-owned infrastructure so controlled drawings, routings, travelers, and certificates do not need to leave the shop's approved environment.
U.S.-person access gates
Mark jobs, customers, parts, files, and QMS gates as U.S.-person only, then block unauthorized views and release workflows.
Jurisdiction and classification tracking
Record USML category, EAR/ECCN review, commodity jurisdiction status, empowered official, and next review date.
Export, reexport, and transfer holds
Hold shipments, document packets, supplier transfers, and customer portal access until authorization status is resolved.
Audit evidence
Capture who changed classifications, who viewed controlled records, which holds were overridden, and why.
Air-gap posture
Use local storage and disable outbound integrations for sensitive deployments that need a stricter network boundary.
Recommended implementation posture
Host controlled production data yourself
Use the same self-hosted direction as GaugeFlow QMS for shops handling controlled technical data.
Default to blocked external transfer
Require an export review before sending drawings, certificates, supplier packets, or customer portal files outside approved users.
Keep ERP and QMS flags aligned
When a job or part is ITAR-controlled in ERP, QMS inspection records, certificates, NCRs, and documents should inherit the same access gates.
