3. REFERENCE:

a. DLM 4000.25, Defense Logistics Management Standards (DLMS), Volume 6,

b. ADC 1191, Implementation of a DoDAAC Contractor Flag.

c. ADC 384D, DLA Energy Customers’ DoDAACs.

4. REQUESTED CHANGE(S):

a. Brief Overview of Change: This administrative change is not a replacement for 

ADC 1191; it is an amendment to ADC 1191. This change removes the default setting of the 

contractor flag for the 2AB series DoDAACs and thus the requirement to enter Contract 

Information. All other requirements are unchanged.

b. Background: The 2A DoDAAC series was established for DLA Energy Special 

Programs. The 2AB was for contractors, 2AC was for Aerospace Commercial Customers and 

2AU for Aerospace University Customers. The usage of 2AB is now changed, and this ADC 

realigns the program with current usage of the 2AB series.

c. Requested Change in Detail:

(1) This change removes the trigger for 2AB series in the DoDAAD database, so 

the contractor flag will not be set to “Y” by default. 2AB will no longer be regarded as 

contractor DoDAAC (unless the CSP sets the Contractor Flag manually). 

(2) The Contractor Flag is to be set to null for 2AB by default, but can still be 

manually set to “Y” by the CSP when the Org Type Code is “F” or “D.” 

d. Revisions to DLM 4000.25 Manuals: N/A 
Attachment, ADC 1191A

e. Alternatives: None

5. REASON FOR CHANGE: The 2AB series is not always a contractor.

6. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES:

a. Advantages: Improves quality by correcting the default value of the contractor 

indicator.

b. Disadvantages: None noted.

7. ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: None.

8. ESTIMATED TIME LINE/IMPLEMENTATION TARGET: Authorized for immediate 

implementation. Target timeline for Transaction Services updates to the DoDAAD is 30 days 

from the publication of the ADC.

9. ESTIMATED SAVINGS/COST AVOIDANCE ASSOCIATED WITH 

IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS CHANGE: None noted.

10. IMPACT:

a. New DLMS Data Elements: None

b. Changes to DLMS Data Elements: None

c. Automated Information Systems (AIS): This is covered in the detailed change 

section above. Army and Air Force will need to make the same change to their DoDAAD 

systems.

d. Transaction Services: These changes will need to be implemented and maintained

within the DoDAAD at Transaction Services. 

e. Non-DLM 4000.25 Series Publications: The changes identified herein will need to
