Depot Data Transparency Act

What it does

• •Modifies the annual report requirement on depot-level maintenance and repair workloads to include dollar amounts of expended and projected funds disaggregated by individual covered depot facility.
• •Amends Section 2466(d)(1) of Title 10, United States Code to add a new reporting requirement for Defense Agency expenditures and projections broken down by specific depot rather than only in aggregate.

Why it matters

• •Increases transparency into how Department of Defense funding for depot-level maintenance is allocated across individual facilities, enabling better oversight of resource distribution and facility-specific performance.
• •Provides Congress and stakeholders with facility-level financial data to assess the operational and economic impact of maintenance workload decisions across the defense industrial base.

Who is affected

• •Defense Agencies and covered depot facilities that perform maintenance and repair work on military equipment.
• •Congressional committees and oversight bodies responsible for reviewing defense spending and maintenance operations.
