Umbrella Special Access Program (SAP)

An approved Department of Defense (DoD) Special Access Program (SAP) that contains compartments for specific projects within the overall program. While there is no formal requirement to obtain separate approval for each individual project under the umbrella SAP, each project must be consistent with the Special Access Program Oversight Committee (SAPOC)-approved scope of the umbrella SAP. The nickname, program description, and accomplishments of each significant project will be reported in the annual Special Access Program report.
