Reporting: The Army must collect, consolidate, and report commercial cloud spending as directed in the HQDA EXORD 009-20, 'Army Data Plan Implementation in Support of Cloud Migration', and subsequent fragmentary orders.

Implementation: To achieve this objective, the Enterprise Cloud Management Agency (ECMA) implemented the Technology Business Management (TBM) taxonomy with associated General Services Administration Product Service Codes (PSCs) and Contract Line-Item Numbers (CLINs) to provide more accurate and comprehensive reporting of cloud investments.

(3) The cloud activity shall be used as the CLIN name
