Base Realignment and Closure Office reports to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Installations and Environment).

The Department is implementing smart card technology though a common access card (CAC). The CAC will be the standard identification card, the principal card used to enable physical access to building installations and controlled spaces and will be used to enable IT systems and applications that access the Department's computer networks.

This configuration management document establishes and describes the configuration management (CM) methods and processes that will be used during planning, development, integration and fielding of the Department of Defense Common Access Card (CAC). The CAC will be the standard identification card for uniformed services personnel, Selected Reserve (including National Guard), DoD civilian employees, and eligible contractor personnel. It will be the authentication token carrier for the Department and the principal card used to enable physical access to buildings and controlled spaces, as well as a means to gain access to the Department's computer networks and systems. The CAC will be issued and maintained using the infrastructure provided by the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) and the Real-time Automated Personnel Identification System (RAPIDS).

Defense Manpower Data Center uses Smart Card technology to collect and maintain manpower and personnel data for the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness.
