A2B Tracking Solutions of
Portsmouth, RI is announcing an electronic newsletter, UID Quarterly. With a
first issue scheduled for June 28, UID Quarterly is intended to educate and
support the Department of Defense and DoD contractors and suppliers who must
comply with the DoD unique identification (UID) mandate. UID enables the DoD to
identify and track tangible assets individually from cradle-to-grave. UID
program manager LeAntha Sumpter currently spearheads this accountability effort,
which was first advocated by the General Accounting Office (GAO).
The UID
Quarterly will focus on education according to editor Joan Hacker, with regular
case studies of companies that have achieved successful UID implementation. In
the inaugural issue Titan Corporation’s AP&D Division will be highlighted.
In Opinion, a regular guest interview with an individual in the forefront of the
UID movement, Marsha Campbell, Sr. Manager, Asset Management at Deloitte is
interviewed on the role of the property manager in UID
implementation.
Other regular features will include announcements and
policy updates from the UID Policy Office as well as a guest column, Vendor’s
Corner, written by vendors and experts from the scanning, verifying, marking,
and labeling communities. Bar code scanner, direct part marking, and label
printer expert Charles E. Mara will be featured in June, addressing bar code
label vs. direct part marking options and requirements.
In addition, A2B
technical experts will contribute a regular Software Solutions column as new
standards continue to evolve. The first issue will feature perspective from bar
code guru David Collins, President of Data Capture Institute and author of the
book, USING BAR CODE - Why It's Taking Over. Collins was a member of the
