The Secretary concerned may not proceed from the design phase of a design-bid-build military construction project or solicit bids for the construction phase of a design-bid-build military construction project until the Secretary of Defense certifies that all materials included in the Unified Facilities Criteria of the Department of Defense have been equally considered for such project. Not later than January 1 of each year, the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report— detailing the primary construction material for each design-bid-build military construction project for which a contract was awarded during the previous fiscal year in an amount that exceeds $6,000,000; and identifying whether each such project was designed or constructed based off a shelf design used at another installation of the Department of Defense.
In this section, the term Secretary concerned has the meaning given that term in section 101(a)(9) of title 10, United States Code.
