When it is requested for an interchangeable NSN parts types listing, the code used for retrieval is the Interchangeability and Substitutability (I&S) Code. This code indicates whether or not there are interchangeable or substitute parts for an NSN in the supply system. It makes sure that procurement and logistics staff can acquire substitute parts when the original NSN cannot be procured, enhancing supply chain flexibility.
The I&S Code operates in the Federal Logistics Information System (FLIS) where NSNs are classified into Interchangeable and Substitutable families. When a query is entered, the system searches alternative NSNs on the basis of compatibility, form, fit, and function. Certain parts will be completely interchangeable, while others will need modifications or further approvals before they can be used.
Moreover, other major retrieval codes, including the Reference Number Category Code (RNCC) and Reference Number Variation Code (RNVC), assist in establishing the association between NSNs and their manufacturer-designated part numbers.
Applying the proper retrieval codes allows for effective procurement and avoids supply shortages by establishing appropriate alternatives. The system is important in military, aerospace, and industrial logistics, maintaining constant operational readiness and minimizing downtime from unavailable parts.
