Waste Packaging and UII Tagging

The contract applies ISO/IEC 16022-compliant Data Matrix labels for Unique Item Identification on waste packages to ensure full traceability in accordance with Department of Defense requirements. This subcontract, issued under the Defense Logistics Agency, mandates the use of standardized machine-readable labels that enable accurate tracking and management of waste materials throughout the supply chain. The labels must be affixed to all waste packaging in a manner that meets DoD-specific durability and readability standards, ensuring consistent data capture during handling, storage, and disposal operations. The work is tied to NAICS code 323111, indicating specialized printing and related support activities, and is positioned to support logistics and environmental compliance within military operations. The contract does not specify a place of performance or a point of contact, suggesting broad applicability across multiple DoD facilities or contractor locations where waste packaging is processed. The implementation of UII tagging under this agreement supports the broader DoD initiative to achieve end-to-end visibility of materiel, including non-reusable or hazardous waste, to improve accountability, reduce loss, and ensure regulatory alignment.
