CDRL Step by Step
The completed CDRL form (DD 1423) requires the contractor to formally deliver the data (contractual obligation) to the Government.
Data is ordered using single or multiple DD Form 1423(s). CDRLs are located in the contract (Section J, Exhibits).
CDRLs can be tied to events (e.g., Preliminary Design Review) or calendar driven (e.g., monthly reports).
Data can be in the form of test data, computer software, algorithms, design details, progress reports, technical data, financial or management reports, or any information required by contract to be delivered.
