The IUID Registry is the Department of Defense’s master repository for all IUID data, allowing the government to manage and track end items, legacy items, updates and rebuilds, and other property.
The IUID Registry allows the government to establish a system of record to track and trace all assets, to create an audit trail for all assets, and to analyze, report on, and optimize its assets. It provides full lifecycle visibility of all assets and enhances the quality of information available for logistics support, systems engineering and operational planning.
A single source of Truth
An important point that is worth restating is that the IUID Registry is the “Master Database” for all DoD property — and this is important; because, it gives the Pentagon a single source of truth. All too often, organizations will have multiple places where data is stored; which inevitably, leads to contradictions between the different databases.
Having a single master repository avoids these challenges — but puts a premium on Reporting. It makes it all that much more important that when your organization reports to the IUID Registry those uploads need to be accurate and complete. You have to get it right!
Check your Contract
In order to meet your full IUID contract compliance requirements with the DoD there are two key clauses that must be followed.
- DFARS 252.211.7003 which is the IUID Marking requirement
- DFARS 252.211.7007 which is the Reporting requirement to the IUID Registry
In most cases, both of these DFARS clauses will need to be followed in order to be fully compliant with your contract. Do not make the mistake of just marking the asset with an IUID label and assume that you are finished. Reporting your IUID asset information to the IUID Registry is a critical step in the process!
Webinar: Reporting Assets to the IUID Registry
I would like to invite you to attend our free upcoming webinar — Reporting Assets to the IUID Registry. Sharrieff Christmas and I will explain why managing your data and being able to navigate the WAWF e-Business Suite is critical to the success of your programs.
Join us on Thursday, May 17th at 2pm EST.
You will learn ….
- How to find the IUID marking requirements in your military contract
- The difference between iRAPT and the IUID Registry
- Specifically what data you need to compile before you submit
- Learn how to report items to the IUID Registry
- Pitfalls to avoid
- How to streamline the entire reporting process
This webinar will give you the background on what the DoD is trying to accomplish with the IUID Registry. You will learn about the key FAR and DFARS clauses that are most likely in your contract. We will outline the data elements that need to be provided for New Acquisitions, GFP (Government Furnished Property) or Legacy items. And we will explain the best practices and the pitfalls to avoid when you are reporting IUIDs.
Also stick around for the live Q&A session at the end of the webinar to make sure that you’ve got it all straight.
Make sure that your reporting to the IUID Registry is done accurately and efficiently.
