Atch 2 - CDRLs.pdf

This document is a Contract Data Requirements List (DD Form 1423) and supporting instructions that establish requirements for Scientific and Technical Reports as a contractual data deliverable.

The data item (A001) requires contractors to deliver Scientific and Technical Reports Summary in contractor-defined format. Reports must provide comprehensive descriptions of research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) accomplishments and can be either definitive or exploratory in nature. The required content includes: task objectives, technical problems encountered, general methodology (literature review, lab experiments, surveys, etc.), technical results, and important findings and conclusions. Additional sections should address implications for further research and significant hardware development. Each report cover page must display the Procuring Activity Designated Order Number, contractor name, contract number, contract effective and expiration dates, reporting period, principal investigator and project scientist contact information, and work title. A disclaimer statement must be prominently displayed indicating that views and conclusions represent the authors' opinions and do not necessarily reflect official Government policies. Reports must be reproducible through black and white copy processes with sufficiently clear and sharp output; ditto, hectograph, color, photographic, and xerographic reproduction methods are not acceptable. The data item is tailored to allow contractor format flexibility and is applicable when contract includes DI-S-4057. Distribution is limited to 1 draft and 1 final copy to the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL).
