6.3 Item unique identification (IUID). The policy for unique identification of items implements a Department of Defense initiative on improving asset management through uniquely identifying tangible items. The UII enables traceability of the item throughout its life within the DoD inventory system, and facilitates item tracking in DoD business systems to provide reliable and accurate data for program management and accountability purposes. The IUID policy, with associated guidance, is available at https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/pdi/uid/index.html.
6.4 Unique item identifier (UII) constructs. The methods of UII construction are determined by the enterprise's serialization protocol (see Table IV).
a. Construct #1 - enterprise identifier and a serial number unique within the assigning activity (see Figures 2, 3, and 5), or
b. Construct #2 - enterprise identifier; original PIN, lot or batch number; and a serial number unique within the product identified (see Figures 4.a, 4.b, 6, 9, and 13)
NOTE: The enterprise that serializes the item shall normally assign the UII. Enterprises are responsible for assuring that their serialization protocols provide globally unique identifiers. When using Construct #2, enterprises must assure unique combinations of serial number with original part, lot, or batch number assignments.
6.5 Data qualifiers. Table VII illustrates the data qualifiers used by constructs #1 and #2, DoD recognized IUID equivalents and current PINs.
6.6 IUID consultation. As noted at https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/pdi/uid/index.html, the OUSD (AT&L) website, aid regarding implementation of IUID is available through Help Desk support at (703) 848-7314 or by e-mail at info@uniqueid.org
6.7 Data format indicator for TEIs. The Department of Defense (DoD) established the collaborative solution format indicator "DD" to enable the use of Text Element Identifiers using the syntax of ISO/IEC 15434 until the time a new format indicator was incorporated as approved syntax in ISO/IEC 15434 to support Text Element Identifiers. The publication of ISO/IEC
15434 dated October 2006 established "12" as the approved format indicator for Text Element Identifiers. Organizations that have been using format indicator "DD" are to transition to the use of format indicator "12" and cease using format indicator "DD" for any newly marked parts. There is no direction to re-mark any items that have used the "DD" format indicator.
6.8 Changes from previous issue. The margins of this standard are marked with vertical lines to indicate where content changes from the previous issue were made. Changes in paragraph numbering are not marked. This was done as a convenience only and the Government assumes no liability whatsoever for any inaccuracies in these notations. Bidders and contractors are cautioned to evaluate the requirements of this document based on the entire content irrespective of the marginal notations and relationship to the last previous issue.
