Item Unique Clause Samples

Item Unique. There is a revision to the proposed rule based on this comment category. The proposed rule language in FAR 45.201, 52.245–1(f)(1)(iii)(A)(4) and 52.245–1(f)(1)(vi)(B)(4) was deleted and the current FAR language is retained. Three respondents with five comments recommend changing the proposed rule to use the term ‘‘unique item identifier (UII)’’ in place of ‘‘item unique.’’ One comment recommended a general overall change to UII, two comments recommended revising 52.245–1(f)(1)(iii)(A)(4) to use the term ‘‘unique item identifier (UII)’’ in place of ‘‘item unique,’’ one comment suggested that the term ‘‘item unique identifier’’ is a DoD term and that ‘‘asset identifier’’ is a more widely recognized term, and one comment suggested changing ‘‘Item unique’’ identifier to ‘‘Unique item’’ identifier as prescribed in Defense Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 252.211–7007. The Councils agree with the proposal to retain the current FAR language of ‘‘unique item’’ identifier. The Councils did not agree with the term ‘‘asset identifier.’’ The Councils believe that unique item identifier is used across industry and is reflected in industry practices and standards.
