What is Unique Identification (UID)?

Inventory management system for the DoD

Unique identification, or UID, is the asset tracking method in which the Department of Defense manages its inventory.

The DoD UID program requires all tangible item that are warehoused, supplied, issued or made by a branch of the Department of Defense to be uniquely identified. The UID must distinguish the item from all others, so that the item may be tracked and monitored throughout its entire lifetime within the DoD system.

UID is often compared to the social security numbering system. Like a social security number, the UID mark is unique to the item and it identifies the item throughout the span of its lifetime – without ever being modified.
