FY2023 NDAA: Organic Industrial Base
October 3, 2022
The Department of Defense (DOD) oversees a network of government-owned industrial facilities
collectively referred to as the organic industrial base (OIB). These facilities produce, store, and dispose
of many of the conventional munitions used by the U.S. armed services; they also maintain, overhaul, and
repair weapon systems and defense equipment. Several provisions in the House-passed (H.R. 7900) and
Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC)-reported (S. 4543) National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2023 (FY2023 NDAA) would introduce new reporting, planning, and investing requirements
for the OIB, as well as authorizing additional appropriations for military construction projects at certain
facilities.
Background
The OIB encompasses both government-owned, government operated (GOGO) and government-owned,
contractor-operated (GOCO) facilities.
Title 10, Section 2464 of the US. Code (U.S.C.) states that it is essential for the national defense that the
Department of Defense maintain a core logistics capability that is Government-owned and Government-
operated, specifying further that this shall include those capabilities that are necessary to maintain and
repair weapon systems and other military equipment. These capabilities reside in GOGO arsenals,
depots, production plants, shipyards, readiness centers, and logistics complexes operated by each of the
military departments; 10 U.S.C. §2476 designates 21 GOGO facilities as covered depots, subject to
reporting and minimum capital investment requirements. For more information, see CRS In Focus
