Renovating the building blocks for parts requests.

 the Use and Application of Uniform Source Maintenance and Recoverability [SMR] Codes, AR 700-82, (31 March 2003).

The revised regulation adds new source codes and changes the order of some maintenance and recoverability codes.

The good news is SMR codes still work pretly much as they always have, but with a few changes for joint application. SMR codes have five standard positions and a sixth position that is service specific.

Source Codes

The first two positions of an SMR code tell you the source of a part. It also explains why a part may not have an NSN NSN National Stock Number
NSN Nokia Siemens Networks
NSN National Storytelling Network
NSN NATO Stock Number
NSN New Substances Notification (CEPA)
NSN National Student Number (NZ)
NSN Never Say Never
.

Maintenance Codes

The third and fourth positions in the SMR code give maintenance info. The third position tells what level of maintenance can remove/replace a part. For example, O means the organization/unit can replace it. F, G, H, K, L, and D indicate higher levels of maintenance. Code G is for Navy use only. The fourth position shows the lowest maintenance level that has the capability and the resources to complete the repair.

Recoverability Codes

The fifth position tells you who can condemn To adjudge or find guilty of a crime and sentence. To declare a building or ship unsafe for use or occupancy. To decide that a navigable vessel is a prize or is unfit for service.  and dispose of dis·pose

The third, fourth, and fifth positions also now follow the same coding order: O, F, G, H, K, L, D and Z. Code Z in the third position is also restricted to Navy use.

The sixth position is reserved for service specific coding. The Army uses this position to indicate demilitarization de·mil·i·ta·rize
