Sustainment Reviews

The DoD cost community, under CAPE’s authority, requires the collection of sustainment data on efforts that meet CSDR thresholds in DoDI 5000.73. Sustainment program offices are required to administer these CSDR requirements on sustainment contracts. This data collection must be aligned with the CAPE sustainment reporting structure detailed in the Operating and Support Cost-Estimating Guide. Contract data requirements lists (CDRLs) may be amended to implement the DIDs at the discretion of the Program Manager and Cost Working Integrated Product Team (CWIPT).

More information on the Sustainment Review policy can be found in the Official Implementation of Cost Estimating, Document, Collection, and Data Reporting for Sustainment Reviews Memorandum.
