For data to be produced and delivered, the description of the work effort must be in the Statement of Work (SOW). The description, format and content of the data product may be provided in a DID. The DID, if provided, must be listed on a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL), or other officially sanctioned list of contracted work products. Although DID format and content are not mandatory unless imposed by the customer, the use of DIDs helps ensure consistency across contracts and between contractors. The HE practitioner should tailor a DID to require only those items that are pertinent to the system being acquired, and necessary to assess the quality and suitability of the contractor's HE effort. A representative sample of HE DIDs that have been developed by the Department of Defense, the Naval Air Systems Command, and the Federal Aviation Administration are listed below. A copy of these DIDs can be found at: http://dtica.dtic.mil/hftag/hfs_docs.html
