What it does
The bill tells the Pentagon's research official to build an online dashboard. It must be done within one year. The dashboard will show where buildings are, who runs them, how old they are, and their condition. It will show funding and equipment values. Congress will be told when it is ready. By 2029, the Pentagon must say if it should keep running.
Who it affects
Congress will see how the Pentagon spends money on research buildings. The public will have clearer information about military research facilities.
One thing to notice
The dashboard will collect facts about military research buildings that were hard to find before. The dashboard stops working on December 30, 2030, unless Congress votes to keep it.
