What is an RDT?

• A Resource Distribution Table identifies which
  contractors work on each WBS element and the
  dollar value associated with their overall effort
• This identifies which contractors must
  participate in the CSDR process, i.e., prepare
  CCDRs and SRDRs

• CSDR Dollar Threshold Review
• For all efforts associated with an ACAT IC or ID
  program
• any contract/subcontract whose estimated value is
  greater than 50M or between 7M and 50M and has
  content of high-risk or high-technical-interest,
  CCDRs are required
• any contract/subcontract whose estimated software
  development value is greater than 25M, SRDRs are
  required

5
Types of RDTs

• Program RDT
• Total dollar value reconciles with government
  budget for given acquisition phase (i.e., SDD,
  LRIP or FRP)
• Utilizes Program Plan WBS
• Includes contracts for Government-furnished
  equipment (GFE) and effort accomplished by
  government facilities
• Contract RDT
• Total dollar value reconciles with contract value
• Utilizes Prime Contract WBS

Both RDTs must be updated as the WBS and the
program evolves

RDT Example Program RDT(Partial Example)
RDT WBS consistent with Program WBS
Note that two organizations outside of the prime
contract will be submitting CCDRs
7
Types of Contractors

• Prime Contractor, i.e., a company whose
  contractual customer is the Government
• Subcontractor, i.e., company whose contractual
  customer is another contractor
• Two types of subcontractors
• Direct-Reporting Subcontractor
• Delivers cost reports directly to the DCARC
• Summary subcontract values are in Prime
  Contractors cost reports
• Non-Reporting Subcontractor
• Not required to submit cost reports to DCARC
• Below dollar-threshold items that are included in
  the Prime Contractors cost reports

RDT Example Contract RDT(Partial Example)
Interdivisional transfers are also subject to
CSDR requirements
2nd tier subcontractors may also be required to
report directly to the government

• Tailor the downloaded RDT example to add the
  correct number of columns
• Complete the header section
• Add Xs to signify the work for each
  organization/contractor
