    The DD Form 1423-1 is a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) utilized by the Department of Defense (DoD) to delineate specific data items that contractors must submit throughout the lifecycle of a contract. This document outlines essential details for managing data submissions, including contractor information, data item descriptions, submission frequencies, and distribution statements. Key elements include the identification of the data item number and title, the contractor's submission requirements for the Counterfeit Prevention Plan (CPP), and mandatory distribution statements, which restrict data dissemination to DoD and authorized contractors only. The document specifies submission timelines—such as the CPP within 30 days post-award—and procedures for resubmittion if government feedback necessitates changes. Additionally, it categorizes data types into groups that define the importance and cost implications of the required data items to the contract. Overall, this form serves both to guide contractors in fulfilling their obligations and to ensure compliance with federal regulations regarding critical technology and controlled data sharing.
    The Engineering Data List, dated November 7, 2024, documents key components related to the F-16 aircraft, particularly focusing on the Backplane Assembly. Managed by BAE Systems and documented by Jerry D Hill, the list includes technical information on various parts and assemblies, such as circuit card assemblies, assembly instructions, and schematics, identified through specific reference numbers. Each entry is categorized with remarks indicating whether it includes documents pertinent to the manufacturing process, engineering instructions, or required classifications. Notably, the document outlines restrictions on data release to foreign entities, emphasizing the importance of government compliance and oversight. This document is essential for informing future procurement and compliance processes associated with federal and state RFPs, ensuring that involved parties have accurate and critical engineering data for maintaining and supporting defense systems. Overall, it illustrates the structured flow of information necessary for effective engineering management within military operations.

It emphasizes adherence to set specifications and standards, instructing that military specifications will not be provided in the bid set. The document stipulates that only approved sources and materials may be utilized, and any deviations from specifications require prior approval. A critical requirement is the usage of leaded solder in electronic products due to the unreliable nature of lead-free formulations as noted by an Airworthiness Advisory.
