There has been a lot of discussion around the use of virtual UIIs when submitting data to the UID Registry. Indeed some areas of the military have suggested use of virtual UIIs only as a last resort. I agree, but with one important exception - GFP that is being managed under contract. (Read More)

There’s an old saying that says: “Once you’re over the hill, you pick up speed.” UID and RFID are over the hills of doubt and resistance, and indeed they are picking up speed. Compliance has evolved enormously since the concept of tracking serialized assets was first introduced by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics back in 2003. We have seen the DoD and its suppliers go from doubt and resistance, to vague interest, to an understanding of the benefits, to willing participants and co-creators of this methodology for realizing unheard of efficiencies in the military and beyond.
Needless to say there is plenty of expertise to go around here at A2B. So from time to time you will be hearing from me or one of our experts who will keep you posted on relevant UID, RFID and AIT topics.
Our intention is to help you stay abreast of unfolding requirements and understand what they mean to you. We also want you to count on us for data management education. And we also want to assist you in sorting through compliance options, including marking choices and software system considerations.

New Requirements Tie Government Furnished Property (GFP) to IUID Compliance
Recent changes to all property bearing contracts administrated by the DCMA are having an effect on government furnished property (GFP) property managers. There is movement away from high level aggregate reporting of government property (GFP) TOWARD item specific reporting that falls in line with DFARS 252.211-7007. This is illustrated by the Jan 11, 2010 Memorandum from Director, Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy (DPAP) Shay Assad in which he calls upon the Directors of virtually all DoD procurement and contracts agencies to formulate a detailed set of milestones for IUID implementation within six months.
