MIL-STD-130 Identification Marking Of U.S. Military PropertyThis standard provides the item marking criteria for development of specific marking requirements and methods for identification of items of military property produced, stocked, stored, and issued by or for the Department of Defense DoD. This standard addresses criteria and data content for both free text and machine-readable information MRI applications for identification marking of U.S. military property.

5.   DETAILED REQUIREMENTS

5.1  General.  All requirements in Section 5 apply to the "item mark" as a single entity, which includes all data, HRI, and MRI related to a single PIN identity and configuration.  An item may be a part, unit, group, or set (see 3.2 definitions).  Planning for item marking should consider the following requirements (see DID DI-MGMT-81804 for additional information).

a.  Determine the applicable marking information requirements from the listed components in

5.1.1.

b.  If MRI is used, determine the MRI and accompanying HRI (translation, interpretation, or free text) requirements as identified in 5.2 and select a marking protocol for use (see 5.2.2).

c.  If MRI is not used, determine the free text requirements for item identification as shown in 5.3.

d.  If the item is a unit, group, or set, determine which additional elements are required to be marked (see 5.1.1.3).

e.  Determine additional marking requirements as noted in 5.4 through 5.9.

f.  Consider the Section 4 general requirements when selecting the marking method. g.  If MRI is used, plan to validate and verify the mark (see 5.2.7).

5.1.1    Item (part, unit, group, set) mark information components.  An item mark may consist of three information components (see 5.1.1.1, 5.1.1.2, and 5.1.1.3) marked as machine- readable information (MRI) and/or human-readable information (HRI).  The information component requirements are mandatory or conditional as identified in the following paragraphs. Identical information component data may be marked as a single entry on an item (e.g., if the enterprise identifier (EID) for the manufacturer is identical to the EID for the entity that assigned a unique item identifier (UII), the EID is only marked one time).

a.  An item of military property consisting of one part (see 3.2), or two or more parts joined together, which is not normally capable of independent operation in a variety of situations and which is not normally subject to disassembly without destruction of the designed use or which is not normally disassembled (e.g., electric clock motor), shall be marked as a part and does not require additional marking as a unit (see 3.2 and 5.1.1.3).

b.  Parts that are normally capable of independent operation in a variety of situations shall be marked as a unit.

5.1.1.1   Identification marking.  The identification marking shall be HRI (with noted exceptions) and should also be marked with MRI.  The identification information in the item mark shall clearly identify the item's source (manufacturer or supplier) EID and PIN.  See 5.2.2 for MRI with HRI (translation or interpretation) marks.  See 5.3 for free text marks.  The marking protocol selected for use (5.2.2 or 5.3) determines the data definition relationship between the marked source (manufacturer or supplier) and PIN.  The item identification EID
