Implementation
• As of May 15th, 2019 (per DD,CA memo), the FlexFile and Quantity Report will replace DD 1921 Series as the default required cost reporting requirement for newly approved CSDR plans
• Some tailoring of the DID requirements may be proposed by the CWIPT (e.g. time-phasing for periods longer than a month)
• If there is context-specific rationale, e.g. the reporting contractor and effort being performed make it unlikely the additional insight provided will be utilized, then the CWIPT may propose to use the DD 1921 series.

Account level reporting at or below the WBS
Data time-phased monthly or to align with contractor’s financial calendars
Continuity with prior reports by requiring the legacy government tags

The Quantity Report ties the necessary quantity information to the FlexFile:
Units to date should reflect an actual count of physically completed units
Allow sequencing quantities to be optional through Planning process for each End-Item as not all End Items may require sequencing (e.g., Kits)
Sequencing was allowed for lower level WBS elements in legacy 1921-2, but FlexFile does not sequence WBS elements (only End Items)

Planning ConsiderationsFlexFile Overview
The following considerations should be included in addition to existing CSDR planning guidance
Define End Item and Order/Lot (see Figure 1)
FACs broken out by Nonrecurring/Recurring and the Standard Functional Category
Quantity Report requires that reporting elements are selected and that GFE are properly identified (see Figure 2)
Quantity Report also requires that sequencing be selected by Order/Lot and End Item

Relationship with Submission Events
A single FlexFile submission will contain data for all of the identified End Items and Order/Lots as opposed to requiring as many submissions as there are End Items and Order/Lots.
For example, if there are five lots on a contract, the Legacy CCDRs would have been given five submissionsfor each lot.
In the FlexFile, those five lots would be detailed in the Order/Lot table (depicted below) and the data for each will be provided in a single submission.

2 Lot 2
3 Lot 3
4 Lot 4
5 Lot 5
What is End Item?End Items are uniquely identified platforms, models, versions, flights, variants, kits, services, or sustainment activities that is delivered.
They will be identified by the CWIPT during the planning process in block 17.
Some examples are detailed below…
What is Order/Lot?Order/Lot field identifies different purchase orders on the same contract.

ID is a product of the data model used to ingest the FlexFile data in CADE. Both tables would have unique IDs to identify the End Items and Order/Lots.
ABC
• Utilizing the End Item table results in the same information as breaking out the WBS by Variant
• Dollars and hours will be tagged to the discrete Variants using the End Item data field
• Since the WBS is NOT broken out by Variant, the CWIPT needs to ensure that the definitions provided in the FlexFile have unique Variant detail
ABC
• Utilizing the End Item table in the FlexFile plan results in the same data as requiring a submission per Variant
• Dollars and hours will be tagged to the discrete Variants using the End Item data field
• Since the WBS definitions are part of the FlexFile DID, there is no need to require it on the FlexFile plan
ABC
• Utilizing the Order/Lot table in the FlexFile plan results in the same data as requiring a submission, say, per LRIP (same applies to all Purchase Orders, including Delivery Orders)
• Dollars and hours will be tagged to the discrete LRIPs using the Order/Lot data field
• Since the WBS definitions are part of the FlexFile DID, there is no need to require it on the FlexFile plan
Since the Quantity Data Report is a separate requirement, it can be explicitly planned for as part of the CSDR Plan.
• The CWIPT must request which WBS elements they expect to receive quantity information for.
• Quantities at completion will then be reported for the combinations of applicable WBS elements, Order/Lot tags, and End Item tags
The FlexFile and Quantity Data Report must be submitted as part of the same submission event.
If it is determined by the CWIPT that there is not value in asking for quantity data, then the Quantity Report does not need to be required.
When deciding what quantity information to require, an analyst should consider…
1. the unique combinations of WBS element, Order/Lot tag, and End Item tag
2. What the quantity value would represent (i.e. would the value be standardized)
Note: The guidance above is only applicable for quantities at completion. Quantities in process and completed to date are only reported for the unique combinations of WBS element and Order/Lot tag.
Planning ConsiderationsQuantity Data Report
Scenario:
• Two delivery orders providing complete aircraft systems to the government
• The Order/Lot tags will be DO1 and DO2
• The total system has two variants
• The End Item tags will be VarA and VarB
Quantity Report:
• Requirement should be checked off for the applicable HW subsystems in addition to 1.0 to ensure sufficient quantities are reported
• If complete systems are not being delivered, then checking off 1.0 may be misleading since the number reported would be comprised of two or more different subsystems (i.e. not standardized)

Would want to know the relationship between the total system and certain subsystems (i.e. an aircraft is comprised of two propulsion systems)
Production ExampleQuantity Data Report
This slide displays example data, created for educational purposes, rather than actual contractor data.
Scenario:
• Two task orders that are providing some services for an aircraft system
• The Order/Lot tags will be TO1 and TO2
• The aircraft system has two variants and there is a requirement to see how many of each variant were serviced
• The End Item tags will be VarA and VarB
Quantity Report:
• Need to decide whether it makes sense to receive a quantity at any other level of the WBS
• An analyst would need to make clear what the quantity should represent (e.g. number of vehicles serviced)
• Any detail regarding the types of services or repair parts would come through in a different report (e.g. –M/R), unless it is defined in the WBS

Submission/Validation Considerations FlexFile Overview
Submission Considerations
• The starting point for submission allows industry to submit the reports in an Excel-Compatible file instead of the JSON Data Model.
• The data model is final and industry may choose to submit according to the JSON Data Model.
• If submitting in an Excel-Compatible format, DCARC will ensure that it maps to the data model for CADE ingestion. This may require some coordination between the DCARC and contractor. The DCARC will then submit the JSON Data Model for validation.
Validation Considerations
• DCARC will ensure compliance with
DID Approved CSDR plan Equivalent of Legacy 1921 validation rules
• External stakeholders may also consider any of the additional insight provided in the FlexFile format when conducting their reviews.

Question 5FlexFile Demonstration
You may notice that these reports have lacked quantity information. Recreate the DD 1921 from question one using the Actuals to Date table, and filter to include only the costs for LRIP 2. Using the Quantity Data Report, pivot to the completed units to date for LRIP 2 as well. Assume that the same number of Variant A and Variant B units have been completed. Consider the following questions:

Question 9FlexFile Demonstration
9. With the FlexFile, we can drill further down
to view the contractor’s internal functional
categories. Using the Suspension/Steering
1921-1 pivot, add the contractor’s Functional
Categories (FunctionalCategory_Name)
underneath the Tier 2 Standard Functional
Categories (DetailedStandardCategory_ID) to
see how the contractor mapped its internal
pricing categories to the government-defined
functional categories. Consider the following:
a. What is an example of a contractor
Functional Category that maps to Direct
Manufacturing Support Labor? Manufacturing
