Enclosure 4 -- Statutory and Regulatory Information and Milestone Requirements

1. Tables 2-1, 2-2, 3, 4, and 5 show the information requirements for all milestones and phases, both statutory and regulatory. MDAs may tailor regulatory program information to fit the particular conditions of an individual program. Decisions to tailor regulatory information requirements shall be documented by the MDA. The non-mandatory Defense Acquisition Guidebook (Reference (f)) supports this Instruction to provide best practices, lessons learned, and expectations for the information required by these tables. Issues regarding the intent of the expectations described in the guidebook shall be resolved by the MDA. The Acquisition Knowledge Sharing System (Reference (x)) contains a library of mandatory policy and regulations and discretionary practices and advice.
