MIL-STD-130 Item Unique Identification (IUID) Marking

The contract requires the application of permanent Data Matrix markings on each ball valve in accordance with MIL-STD-130 standards, ensuring full compliance with Department of Defense Item Unique Identification requirements. Each valve must be marked with a machine-readable Data Matrix code that uniquely identifies the item and contains all mandated data elements as specified by the military standard. Failure to meet the marking requirements may result in non-compliance and rejection of the delivery. In addition to physical marking, full IUID data for each ball valve must be submitted to the DoD UID Database, including detailed information such as the item’s unique identifier, manufacturer details, part number, serial number, and other required attributes. This submission is critical for lifecycle tracking, inventory management, and logistical support across the DoD supply chain. The work is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541330, and the contracting authority is the Defense Logistics Agency, with performance expected to meet all federal defense standards as outlined in the reference contract SPE7MX23D0070.
