DTIC Corporate Source The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) maintains a Corporate Source Authority System (CSAS) which lists all organizations that have contributed information to any of DTIC's three major databases. The DTIC Corporate Source database is a collection of Corporate Authors. Corporate Authors are the organizations and agencies responsible for reports received by DTIC. Each record displays the standardized form of the organization's name, the organization's parent and suborganizations, and the organization's Source Code. A Source Code is a unique numeric designation assigned by DTIC to each organization in the database. DOD DTIC Science and Technology

A Source Code is a unique numeric designation assigned by DTIC to each organization in the database.<br /> The purpose of the database is to find the Source Code for an organization. The Source Code can then be searched in the Technical Reports, Research Summaries, or IR&D databases to find all the reports from an organization, despite variations in its name. Searching by Source Code Hierarchy enables you to find all reports from an organization plus reports from its suborganizations and reports submitted under previous names.<br /> DOD DTIC Science and Technology
