Today I am flying to Orlando for the semi-annual UID Forum. I will also be meeting with various branches of the military as well as members of the UID Suppliers Alliance. We anticipate a significant show as attendance has swollen to over 850. Each of those attendees has been charged with the implementation of MIL STD 130 - the DoD’s UID, in one way or another.

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.

UID Requires a Team Effort
We had some feedback, following our most recent UID Web Seminar that clearly illustrates the importance of tackling UID with a team approach. One attendee wrote, “Please accept our thanks and appreciation to both A2B and David (Collins of Data Capture Institute) for bringing us an informative hour that was well spent. Everyone on our team sat together, property management, purchasing, operations and executive departments, up to and including our president. We heard as one the inevitability of moving ahead with UID.” (Read More)
