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.

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 a variety of purposes that include but are not limited to: program management, property accountability, anti-counterfeiting, reliability analysis, lifecycle management, and serialized item management.  The IUID policy, with associated guidance and criteria, 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 original PIN, lot, or batch number assignments (see Figures 4.a, 4.b, 6, and 9).

NOTE:  The enterprise that serializes the item will normally assign the UII.  Enterprises are responsible for ensuring that their serialization protocols provide globally unique identifiers.

6.5  Data qualifiers.  Table VII illustrates the data qualifiers used by UII Construct #1, Construct #2, and by DoD recognized IUID equivalents.
