What Does CDD Stand For?
CDD stands for Capabilities Development Document
The Capabilities Development Document (CDD) is a formal document used in defense acquisition and military planning that outlines the essential capabilities needed to meet operational requirements. It serves as a blueprint for the development, sourcing, and delivery of military systems and capabilities, detailing the specific performance attributes and operational needs to guide design, testing, and procurement processes. The CDD is critical for enabling decision-makers to align resources with strategic objectives and ensure that military forces can effectively address evolving threats and challenges.
