At ASAP Semiconductor, we make sure that our clients' supply chain processes run smoothly. Our customers in the Aerospace, Aviation, Military and Defense industries can explore our wide range of National Stock Number parts through our proprietary website ASAP Aerospace.
To regulate the procurement process, U.S. Department of Defense established a system that distinctively and permanently identifies the items that it purchases. This system, called the National Stock Number (NSN), is made of 13 digits which are broken down into the 2 ensuing identifying subcategories :
1. Federal Supply Classification Group - The first 4 digits of the NSN identifies the Federal Supply Class code (FSCG).
2. National Item Identification Number - The last 9 digits of the NSN identifies the National Item Identification Number (NIIN).
The FSCG and NIIN can be broken down even further into the following classifying subcategories :
Federal Supply Group - The first 2 digits of the FSCG identifies the Federal Supply Group (FSG).
Federal Supply Code - The last 2 digits of the FSCG identifies the Federal Supply Code (FSC).
National Codification Bureau - The first 2 digits of the NIIN identifies the National Codification Bureau (NCB) or NATO country code.
Item Serial Number- The last 7 digits of the NIIN is merely an item serial number that does not follow an assignment pattern.
