CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
Spiral Development Process:
• Include UID policy in • Issue support plans and prioritized
overarching Army Regulation marking schedule
(AR) on Automatic Identification • Require suppliers to mark items
Technology (AIT) prior to delivery; mark legacy items
• Develop scenarios describing as rapidly as possible
how UID will be used • Identify and institutionalize metrics
operationally and performance measures for
• Identify target business UID
processes, e.g., UID supports • Work with other Services, defense
serial number tracking (SNT) agencies, and industry to resolve
• Identify stakeholder common issues and evaluate
responsibilities (all classes of success
supply, all Army communities) • UID part of program reviews
• Training • Maintain outreach program

CHALLENGES
• Life Cycle Management • UID requirements and “Best
Commands (LCMC) and Business Practices” must be
Program Executive Offices incorporated into the Single Army
(PEO) must act in concert to Logistics Enterprise (SALE)
promote data interoperability and • UID may affect contract price and
equipment standardization schedule
• Need consistent approach for • Current and future Army networks
marking items whose cost cycles must be scaled to accommodate
above and below $5K UID pervasive use of UID
threshold
• Major challenge is to define best
• Packaging requirements – use of UID data to support
including passive RFID - need transformation of Army logistics
more definition processes - marking items is not
• Potential for uneven enough
implementation across Army
communities and Joint arena
