Approved DLMS Change 112

United States Coast Guard Service Code 

(Supply/MILSTRIP)

1. ORIGINATOR:

a. Service/Agency: Headquarters, United States Coast Guard

b. Originator: Sharon Larkin, G-SLP

2. FUNCTIONAL AREA:

Primary: Supply/Military Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedures (MILSTRIP)

3. REFERENCES:

a. DLMSO memorandum dated December 8, 2003, subject: Followup on Proposed 

DLMS Change 106, United States Coast Guard Service Code (Supply/MILSTRIP)

b. DLMSO memorandum dated July 30, 2003, subject: Proposed DLMS Change 

106, United States Coast Guard Service Code (Supply/MILSTRIP)

4. REQUESTED CHANGE:

a. Title: United Stated Coast Guard Service Code

b. Description of Change: This change proposes contractor-use of ZY_ in record 

positions 4-5, 67-68, and 74-75 in requisitions and related transactions. 

c. Procedures: Revise MILSTRIP Appendices 2.2 and 2.3 to indicate that ZY_ in 

record positions 4-5, 67-68, and 74-75 in requisitions and related transactions will 

be designated for “contractor use only.”

5. REASON FOR CHANGE: This change proposes the use of dual codes (first position=Z 

and second position=Y) of routing identifier (RI) codes to identify United States Coast 

Guard (USCG) contractors. Unlike other Services with multiple Service-assignment 

codes of which one specific Service code is assigned for contractor-use only, the USCG 

has only one Service code assignment of which their only option is to designate a dualposition code (to be used with their Service Code Z) to identify their contractors. USCG 

currently uses this Z + Y dual-code combination logic to establish activity address codes 

to identify their contractors and are proposing this same logic be applied to establishing RI 

codes for contractor use only. The USCG Deepwater program authorizes the assigned 
contractor (Lockheed Martin) to receive requisitions directly from USCG units via the 

Defense Automatic Addressing System. The contractor will require an RI to, not only 

receive requisitions from the units, but to send supply and shipment status back to 

requisitioning units.

6. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES: 

a. Advantages: To provide electronic identification of USCG contractors by 

designating dual characters within the RI code (first position=Z and second 

position=Y) for contractor use only.

b. Disadvantages: None identified.

7. IMPACT: 

a. Programming: Changes require recognizing RI codes assigned to Coast Guard 

contractors.

b. Publications: Revisions required to the following publications:

• DOD 4000.25-1-M, MILSTRIP

• DOD 4000.25-1-S1, MILSTRIP Routing Identifier and Distribution Codes

• DOD 4000.25-M, DLMS

SERVICE AND AGENCY1 CODES

MILSTRIP SERVICE CODES

NUMBER OF 

CHARACTERS:

One or two.

TYPE OF CODE: Alpha.

EXPLANATION: S/A codes are designed to accommodate S/A identity in MILSTRIP 

documentation. For this purpose, these codes are used in conjunction 

with other codes to identify the parent S/A of requisitioners and other 

addressees. The S/A codes will be used in rp 4, 30, 31, 45, 46, 67, and 

74 of the DD Form 1348 series of documents. FEDSTRIP provides for 

the use of the two position codes, defined as civil Agency codes, to be 

entered in rp 30-31 and 45-46 of the GSA Form 1348 series of 

documents. The MILSTRIP Service codes and the FEDSTRIP Agency 

codes2 are listed below:

AP2.3 APPENDIX 2.3

ROUTING IDENTIFIER CODES

AP2.3.1. RIs (located in rp 4-6, 67-69, and 74-76 of transactions) are assigned by S/As for 

processing inter-S/A, and intra-S/A logistical transactions. The codes serve multiple purposes in 

that they are supply source codes, intersystem routing codes, intrasystem routing codes and 

consignor (shipper) codes. DAASC maintains an electronic database of these codes which 

are accessible from their website https://day2k1.daas.dla.mil/dodaac/dbb.asp.

AP2.3.2. To qualify for assignment of an RI, the facility/activity must be an integral and 

predetermined element of an established logistical system and must perform a general logistical 

control, distribution and/or storage mission (to include bases, posts, camps, and stations, when 

applicable).

AP2.3.3. The use of an RI on any one document does not infer, imply, or intend that follow-on 

documentation resulting there from must contain the same RI or any element thereof. It is a 

fundamental premise of MILSTRIP that any RI serves as only one of the following:

AP2.3.3.1. An address to indicate the intended recipient of the document for logistical 

actions.

AP2.3.3.2. Identify the actual consignor (shipper) on supply type release/receipt 

transactions originated within the distribution system(s).

AP2.3.4. The system does not list or recognize any codes containing “numerics” in the first 

position. Codes of this category are reserved and are not to be used or considered as RIs within 

the meaning of MILSTRIP.

AP2.3.5. All authorized RIs will contain one of the characters depicting Service assignment as 

listed in MILSTRIP AP2.2., in the first position.

AP2.3.6. The second1 and third positions may be in any combination of alphanumerics. These 

positions may identify either a facility or activity of the S/A depicted by the first position.

AP2.3.7. Each S/A is responsible for the assignment of RIs to its facilities and activities. An 

S/A which has activities located at another S/A facility will assign its own RI to the activity. An S/A 

which has assets located at another S/A facility will use the RI assigned by the S/A 

owning/operating the facility. (An appropriate RI may be assigned to identify these assets when 

requested by the S/A owning the assets.) The DoD MILSTRIP System Administrator will make RI 

H_ series assignments for “Other DOD Activities.”

 

1Y in second position identifies United States Coast Guard contractor use only when first position is Z.

AP2.3.8. Each S/A will designate a coordinator with responsibilities to control, monitor, and 

submit/validate all RI additions, revisions, and deletions relative to its S/A. The S/A coordinators 

established for assignment of RIs are as follows:

AP2.3.9. Each S/A coordinator will ensure currency in code assignments. Additional 

assignments, revisions, and/or deletions of RI codes, with exception of H_ series will be submitted 

to the DAASC. RI Code H_ assignments will be submitted to DLMSO. The DAASC will monitor 

RI code assignment for compliance with the above assignment rules.

AP2.3.10. The DAASC maintains the RI database and serves as the focal point for receipt of 

all RI database revisions. The RI database is published electronically and updated from requests 

for additions, changes, and/or deletions as submitted by the Component RI coordinators. 

Interested parties may interrogate the RI database through the DAASC website at
