Contract Data & Reporting
What is DD Form 1423?
Contract Data Requirements List form
DD Form 1423 is the actual government form on which each CDRL line item is recorded. One 1423 block captures a single deliverable: its title, the governing DID, frequency, distribution, and acceptance criteria. The set of 1423s attached to a contract is the CDRL.
You encounter the 1423 during proposal review (to scope the data effort) and again at execution (to confirm each deliverable's format and due date).
Common questions
Is DD Form 1423 the same as a CDRL?
Effectively yes — the CDRL is the collection of DD Form 1423 line items on a contract. Each 1423 block defines one data deliverable.
