Knowing and Using the Technology
Products in the government and defense supply systems are identified and managed using the NSN NIIN List. Two distinct codes that aid in tracking and classifying supplies are NSN (National Stock Number) and NIIN (National Item Identification Number). While the NIIN is the final nine digits of the NSN, the NSN itself is a thirteen-digit identifier. Users can quickly identify crucial details about products, such as manufacturers, part numbers, and descriptions, with the use of this list. It's a crucial tool for managing inventories and making sure the appropriate supplies are on hand for a variety of tasks. The supply chain process is made easier by the NSN NIIN Directory.
