Preparation Instructions
1Reference documentsThe applicable issue of any documents cited herein, including their approval dates and dates of any applicable amendments, notices, and revisions, shall be as specified in the contract.
2Format and contentThe technical baseline report shall be prepared in contractor format taking in consideration the requested data fields listed on Figure I of this DID.
3Application/Interrelationship
3.1This data will be used by the government as the technical baseline reportThis data will be used by the government as the technical baseline report upon which to judge future changes to the documentation, physical hardware and software items. The technical baseline data shall be updated each time an item has been changed or when a new item is introduced. A technical baseline report shall be formally released to the government in accordance with the contracted delivery requirements and the preparation instructions listed below.
3.2Preparation of the technical baseline reportPreparation of the technical baseline report shall in no way conflict with or contravene contract requirements that specify delivery of technical data packages and other engineering support data, as delineated in the contract.
4Preparation Instructions
4.1Format RequirementsThe technical baseline report shall contain the configuration items for each baseline type which is shown as an example in Tables I, II and III of this DID. A sample technical baseline report is provided in Figure I depicting the requested data fields to be recorded and delivered.
4.2Data ContentThe technical baseline report shall include a complete listing of all government furnished and contractor developed and furnished documents, physical hardware and software items which are required to accurately define and control the baselines. Unique identifiers included in the technical baseline report shall be described in accordance with the specified contract requirements. If there are no contract requirements, the contractor's unique identifiers shall be used in the technical baseline report.
4.3Baseline TypesTables I, II and III summarize example titles of physical hardware and software items, specifications, drawings, interface control, design and version description documents which are normally included in one of the baseline types; Functional, Allocated and Product.
4.4Source DataTo help identify technical data and information required for technical baselines, a list of sources is included in Table IV.
