MIL-STD-31000B : DOD Standard Practice Technical Data Packages

Lifecycle Data consist of information that describes the state of the part within a controlled procedure for development, review, release for manufacture, retention for maintenance and upgrades, and retirement and disposal. For example, the revision level and release date are lifecycle data that describe the administrative state of the part and change as the product moves through its review and approval cycle. Lifecycle data dont describe properties inherent in the part (such as the material type or manufacturer) that are necessary information to make or procure the part.
