Use & Relationship
The Cataloging Report is a listing of all system and non-system training aids, devices, simulators, and simulations (TADSS) component parts that do not have a National Stock Number (NSN) or Management Control Number (MCN) assigned, and that require cataloging by the Government. The data in the report allows the Government to obtain syndicated Manufacturer's Part (MANP) numbers to facilitate the cataloging of TADSS in Army and Federal Logistics Information Systems. The format outlines the structure of the data that will give the Government the ability to import the Cataloging Report into Department of Defense (DoD) databases for cataloging.
This DID contains the format, content, and intended use information for the data deliverable resulting from the work task described in the solicitation.
This DID may be applied in any contract, which contains a requirement for the cataloging of TADSS components.
