reporting, most contractors are choosing
to absorb the cost of reporting into
overhead rather than separately
identifying the direct cost.
The contractor name, address, and
point of contact with an email address
are requested to facilitate reconciliation
of the data and clarification of any
ambiguous entries with the contractor.
The Army has instituted several
program enhancements that will enable
DoD to further minimize the reporting
burden for all parties. For instance,
contract funding information can be prepopulated from defense accounting
system data and edited, if necessary
with a series of easy-to-use drop down
menus of standard accounting data
elements. In the previous data collection
effort, contractors were expected to
know Department funding source data.
Another enhancement to the data
collection effort is the drop down
menus for the identification of the DoD
organizational customer supported. In
this regard, rather than have the
contractor go into the system and
presume whom they are proving
support services to, the system is now
designed with drop down menus that
start from the top level. The DoD system
will be pre-populated with information
on the ‘‘organization supported’’ to
minimize reporting confusion.
