DI-TMSS-80527 has recently been updated with the release of Revision C which replaces the DI-TMSS-80527B from 2006. The new one-page Data Item Description, titled “Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Manuals and Associated Supplemental Data,” describes the format, content, and intended use information for the data deliverable(s) resulting from the work described in MIL-PRF-32216.
Data Item Descriptions are short military documents that define the data required of a contractor (like a report or manual, for example). The DID (as they are known) specifically defines the data content, format, and intended use.
The TMSS in the document number refers to the FSC classification for the document, in this case Technical Manuals, Specifications and Standards. The DID’s now use the FSC in the number to segregate the documents by catagory.
