What this bill would do
This bill is known as the Dashboard for MILCON Projects Act. It requires the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering to set up a central dashboard within one year. This dashboard will monitor and track military construction planning, design, and execution metrics for certain facilities. The database must use existing financial management tools and display specific details like facility locations, managers, and building conditions. The official running this must certify to Congress within 30 days of the dashboard becoming operational. The authority for this dashboard ends on December 30, 2030.
