GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. Situation. This is a Deputy Commandant, Installations and Logistics (DC, I&L) message announcing the release of the PRDS and PDS Funds Validation Request (Handshake 2) from the Contract Writing System (CWS), Standard Procurement System-Marine Corps (SPS-MC), to Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.  The purpose of Handshake 2 is to reduce and eliminate downstream unmatched transactions; and any related Contract Deficiency Reports (CDRs) within the DoD enterprise P2P end-to-end process.
2.  Mission.  As part of continued DAI capability enhancements, the PDS Funds Validation Request will be implemented between SPS-MC, Procurement Desktop-Defense (PD2) and DAI.  Once Handshake 2 is deployed, SPS-MC users will be able to conduct an electronic Funds Validation or “funds check” with DAI.  This check can also validate to some degree that the award document, once signed, will interface successfully from the CWS into DAI.
3.  Execution.  Funds Validation Request procedures shall be conducted per references C, D, and E.  
4.  Administration and Logistics.  This capability is currently planned for implementation in SPS-MC on 20 April 2023, once operational testing is completed.  Head of the Contracting Activities will ensure that personnel operating in PD2 have access to, and are familiar with, the procedures contained in reference D and E.
5.  Command and Signal.  Questions regarding the implementation of PDS Funds Validation Request (Handshake 2) should be directed to the respective I&L (HQMC, I&L LB) or Marine Corps Systems Command Head of the Contracting Activity (HCA) (MCSC CT) for additional guidance.
6.  Release authorized by BGen Forrest C. Poole, III Assistant Deputy Commandant, Installations and Logistics (LP).//
