SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary of Information Collection 

The Department of Defense has 

designated the SPOT as the joint Webbased database to assist the Combatant 

Commander (CCDR) in maintaining 

awareness of the nature, extent, and 

potential risks and capabilities 

associated with contracted support in 

support of contingency operations, 

humanitarian or peacekeeping 

operations, or military exercises 

designated by the CCDR. 

The designated joint Web-based 

database (SPOT or its successor) shall: 

(a) Serve as the central repository for 

up-to-date status and reporting on ALL 

DoD funded contingency contractor 

personnel as well as other personnel as 

directed by Under Secretary of Defense 

for Acquisition, Technology, and 

Logistics (USD(AT&L)), or by the CCDR. 

(b) Track contract capability 

information for all DoD funded 

contracts supporting contingency 

operations, humanitarian or 

peacekeeping operations, or military 

exercises designated by the CCDR. 

Contract capability information shall 

provide planners and CCDRs an 

awareness of the nature, extent, and 

potential risks and capabilities 

associated with the contracted effort. 

(c) Provide by-name accountability of 

all DoD funded contingency contractor 

personnel and other personnel as 

directed by USD(AT&L) or the CCDR. 

(d) Contain, or link to, minimum 

contract information (e.g., contract 

number, company contact information, 

sponsoring (requiring activity) military 

unit contact information, and a 

summary of services or capability 

provided by the contract) necessary to 

establish and maintain accountability 

and visibility of the personnel and the 

contract capabilities in contingency 

operations, humanitarian or 

peacekeeping operations, or military 

exercises designated by the CCDR. 

Section 861 of the NDAA for FY 2008 

required the identification of common 

databases among the DoD, DoS, and 

USAID to serve as repositories of 

information on contracts and contractor 

personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan. In a 

signed memorandum of understanding 

(MOU), the Agencies agreed that SPOT 

will serve as the interagency database 

for information on contractor personnel. 

Each Agency must require its 

contractors operating in contingency 

operations to input information into 

SPOT and ensure data integrity.
