MIL-STD-130N
w/Change 1
e. Deleted the term "concatenated UII" which is a redundant description of "UII". Used a single term "derived" to describe how specific data elements are linked together to construct a UII.
f. Removed the requirement that free text marking, in lieu of MRI, had to be specified in the contracts for new procurement. MRI marking is "preferred" for all item marking but is only mandatory for IUID designated items; thus, using free text to identify items not designated for IUID marking must be the standard alternative without having to be specified in the procurement contract.
g. Changed the requirement to identify the item's source (manufacturer or supplier) enterprise identifier (EID) and the part or identifying number (PIN) of the marked item from non-mandatory (should) to mandatory (shall) to align the marking criteria with the basic provision that identification information shall be contained in the applied mark, whether machine-readable or free text. Several of the approved marking protocols have no specified minimum information requirement.
h. Revised the use of the phrase "item identification" within the standard to only include instances where applications of the term match the definition (i.e.; the PIN or descriptive identifier for a specific item along with the enterprise identifier of the activity that assigned the PIN or descriptive identifier).
i. Added a requirement that the identification mark should include an EID for the item identification enterprise that assigned the PIN if the selected marking protocol does not provide for "item identification", as defined by this standard. Four marking protocols (AIAG, CEA, NASA, and MH10.8.7) of the seven approved marking protocols have no specific marking requirement that aligns with the "item identification" marking requirement (the A4A, GSl, and free text protocols provide item identification). The data qualifiers preferred by this standard for the item identification enterprise are shown in Table IX for each of the marking protocols.
J. Changed the encode of Data Matrix symbols for a GS1 marked item to require
ISO/IEC 15434 syntax and GS1 AIs (see Table VII).
k. Added a footnote business rule for Application Identifier (AI) 240 that describes its use with AI 01 for a GS1 Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) in accordance with the GS1 General Specifications.
l. Added AIs 21 and 01 (GTIN) for use as MRI for other than UII data set elements.
m. Removed AI 95 from the tables and figures where it was used to identify the encoded source (manufacturer or supplier) GS1 Company Prefix information for item identification.
n. Added Text Element Identifier (TEI) FAB (fabricator) for use as MRI and HRI for other than UII data set elements.
o. Added a requirement to clarify that the Data Matrix symbol used for non-serialized item Airlines for America (A4A) protocol marks must also be ISO/IEC 15434 standard compliant when the mark is required by a contract provision. This is not a change from the current requirement that specifies ISO/IEC 15434 syntax for all MRI. However, this requirement is in opposition to the A4A SPEC2000 protocol for
