BACKGROUND

• DLIS currently produces a quarterly CD ROM
  product which contains approximately 12,500 items
  including National Stock Numbers (NSNs) and Army
  Management Control Numbers (MCNs).
• Eight programs have been identified that require
  a UIT indicator with one additional code to be
  used to identify a UID tracking requirement. The
  need for a UID code is under review.

DOD UIT Programs

• Code Program
• AAA DoD Small Arms Serialization Program
  (DoDSASP)
• AAB Security Risk Category I Non-Nuclear
  missiles and Rockets
• AAC Radiation Testing and Tracking System
  (RATTS) Program
• AAD Navy Depot Level Reparables (NDLR)
  Program
• AAE The Army Maintenance Management System
  (TAMMS) Equipment Data Base (TEDB)
• AAF Aviation Component Tracking Program
• AAG Tritium Unique Item Tracking Program
• AAH Controlled Cryptographic Items (CCI)
• UID Assets which meet DoD UID criteria for
  UID marking, but which are not subject to DoD
  UIT program/tracking requirements.

OBJECTIVE

• Establish a DOD UIT Designator (UITD) Code on
  the item of supply record in FLIS.
• Provide visibility of the UITD on FLIS products
  and Services (e.g. FEDLOG, WEBFLIS, Data
  Extracts, etc.)
• Output the UITD with standard FLIS catalog data
  to Service/Agency Legacy/ERP data systems as
  required.

5
ISSUES

• Need to identify location of source data or
  method to link UITD to a NSN and pass this
  information to DLIS.
• Need to identify activities and data systems to
  accept the output data that is pushed from FLIS.
• Need to identify any system edits to ensure data
  quality. (e.g. valid data submitters, UITD
  codes, FSCs, etc.).
• How will we handle non stock listed items (Army
  MCNs)?

6
MORE ISSUES

• How can Disposal use the UIT and what can we do
  to facilitate business rules changes?
• What interfaces do we establish with BSM? Will
  the UITD code be established in SAP? How will it
  work?
• What are the business rules for dealing with
  cancellations? E.g. Cancelled/replaced Do we
  automatically code the replacement NSN with the
  same UITD code?

7
DISCUSSION

• DLIS must arrange for the UITD code to be in
  FLIS in a manner that is usable to all Services.
• DLIS unsure of Service requirements for the UITD
  code. Need functional requirements from the
  Services so we can design the best FLIS solution.
• UITD in FLIS may be impacted by the scope of a
  UID indicator in FLIS.

8
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE

• Services should develop business rules for use
  of UITD code, incorporate into their data
  systems, and pass requirements to DLIS for
  incorporating the UITD code in FLIS.
• Other suggestions?
