Reducing Aerospace and Defense Asset Costs and
Improving Visibility
The Department of Defense (DoD) has mandated a landmark policy that requires all assets and personal
property owned by the DoD, including assets in the possession of contractors, to be marked with a unique serialized identification number in accordance
with MIL-STD-130.

The DoD and all defense contractors must account for all critical DoD assets using IUID barcode labels and plates.

IUID compliance helps them to get paid on time, to meet their contractual
obligations, and allows them to avoid costly errors such as rejected shipments
or a failed audit.

IUID compliance also helps to meet safety requirements, reduce maintenance costs,
enhance asset life, and optimize spare parts
management. This greatly reduces the overall costs of
assets.

In this presentation, based on our guide, we'll discuss the most cost-effective and efficient ways to achieve
IUID compliance.

Keeping track of assets and personal property doesn’t necessarily have to be a costly endeavor—if you go about it in a way that will increase efficiency and drive quality.

Budget cuts and changes in military spending
indicate that the defense industry is relying more
on commercially developed software that is more affordable and
scalable.www.a2btracking.com (800) 733-
With commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software, the costs of
maintenance and upgrades are spread across that software’s
hundreds of thousands of users. That cost is often a modest
ongoing maintenance or licensing fee.

Add to that cost savings, the technical
know-how of a commercial enterprise dedicated to IUID—like A2B Tracking—and you
have a winning formula.

Tracking high-value, high-technology assets and services in the aerospace and defense industry has become increasingly complex due to changing requirements, heightened
security, rising costs, and increased competition.

Identifying items consistently and accurately will help facilitate tracking throughout each item’s life in DoD
business systems. The results are improved visibility, as well as reliable and accurate data for program
management and accountability purposes.

Keeping track of all these assets is a formidable task.
Now add to that task a supply chain that is becoming increasingly complex.

Defense manufacturers will need strategies for managing supply chain
disruptions and a system for improving
assets visibility.

In addition to tracking items through the
supply chain, defense manufacturers will
need to actively track the age and condition
of spare parts and replacement equipment.
