IUID Benefits Expected
DoD’s IUID policy was designed to help the defense community –
- Save taxpayer dollars through increased productivity and efficiency:
- Provide improved item visibility for the warfighter for operational planning
- Lower the total life-cycle costs of items acquired and managed
- Provide item visibility regardless of the weapon system or who owned the item
- Supply item data needed for top-level logistics and engineering analysis
- Facilitate issuance of a clean audit opinion as required by the 1990 Chief Financial Officers' Act by providing an accurate data source for determining value and accountability of property and equipment
- Improve access to historical item data across the life cycle from system design to disposal

Famous quotes containing the words benefits and/or expected:
“While greedy good-doers, beneficent beasts of prey,
Swarm over their lives enforcing benefits ...”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Perhaps of all our untamed quadrupeds, the fox has obtained the widest and most familiar reputation.... His recent tracks still give variety to a winter’s walk. I tread in the steps of the fox that has gone before me by some hours, or which perhaps I have started, with such a tip-toe of expectation as if I were on the trail of the Spirit itself which resides in the wood, and expected soon to catch it in its lair.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
