Program Managers:
To adequately address the business process changes and to enable a smooth transition, every PM is required to develop a UID implementation plan for submission to the Defense Acquisition Executive or his/her component acquisition executive for approval!
These plans are required to meet the following targets:
• Fiscal Year 2007: (a) all existing serialized assets that meet the IUID criteria have been entered in the IUID Registry, and (b) IUID marking capabilities have been established for all existing items and embedded assets such that marking can commence as applicable equipment are returned for maintenance.
• December 31, 2010: Complete IUID marking of items and all applicable embedded assets within existing items.
DoD Contractors:
For some contractors, marking with the mandatory 2-D data matrix barcode may be your first foray into high capacity automatic data capture. For others, it may mean adding the 2-D data matrix to existing part marking processes - either way, you must understand what is required!
The UID Forum will provide practical guidance to understand the compliance procedures for UID implementation.
As more and more items meet the UID requirements, business processes will capture precise data and provide a more accurate picture of individual item history and configuration. The technology provides an automated approach to data capture and a means to traceability throughout the life of an item. As data is captured and linked to in-service data sources, there will be access to a broad range of reliable data for engineering analysis, logistics support decision making, valuation, and even operations decision making.
Among the applications either enabled or enhanced by the use of the UID are:
• Failure reporting/analysis and targeting repair (reactive and predictive)
• Recall or latent defect resolution
• Maximizing capability while minimizing logistics
• Reliability studies to determine best equipment available
• Tracking and redirecting as necessary en route
• Planned maintenance scheduling
• Item repair
• Supplier performance tracking
• Parts (end items and spares) tracking
• Logistics support
