Supplier Requirements

Three Major Supplier Actions:• Develop Engineering (Unless Build-to-Package (BTP)

Supplier)• Review and approval by Prime (LMA, BAE, NGC)

• Create UID Label• Ensure HRI and MRI Compliance (MIL-STD-130)• Supplier Responsible for Verification and Validation

• Submit Data for each Delivered Part• First time submittals to F-35 Data Library• Future submittals via LM UID Portal

11


F-35 UID Label Requirements

• F-35 Suppliers create labels in compliance with MIL-STD-130 – Design Authority Suppliers can use any material and

marking method that meets the F-35 operational environment. The supplier must certify to MIL-STD-130 for verification requirements.

– BTP suppliers create labels in compliance with MIL-STD-130, LMA-PN008 and released engineering.

• Approved materials are Photo-metal, Polyester and Tedlar decals.

• LMA is currently testing DPM methods

• Text Element Identifier format (TEI)12


F-35 Aircraft Nameplate

Supplier Data RequirementSuppliers are required to submit UID records using a Excel template for each part shipped. • The spreadsheet requires additional columns for Purchase Order and

Line Item numbers. • When parts are received at LM Aero a query is made to I-GUIDES

that looks for records with the same PO/Line Item numbers as the parts that were received.

• If three parts are received, but only two records reside in I-GUIDES, the parts are held in receiving until the additional records are added or corrected in I-GUIDES.

14


Supplier Portal

15

• The spreadsheets can be directly imported by suppliers using Lockheed Martin’s Supplier UID Portal.

• Once a submittal is made an email response will include an Excel file showing error or acceptance messages.


LM I-GUIDESIntegrated Global UID Enterprise Solution (I-GUIDES) is Lockheed Martin’s UID database. Below a query can be made on Purchase Order and Line Item numbers and all UID records received for a particular PO can be reviewed.

16


I-GUIDES Query Result

Scanning of UID on Production LineUID Parts are scanned prior to installation. Once a part is scanned, the Shop Floor Manager (SFM) program queries I-GUIDES for a matching data record.

Mechanic opens the Actuator installation

Mechanic selects the Scan UID icon in the operation step of SFM to begin IUID collection

21

1. The IUID mark on the part’s label.

3. Mechanic scans the IUID with hand held reader.

2. The mechanic searches for the IUID mark following SFM instructions to observe and record IUID.


22

After the scan, the mechanic connects the reader to the computer to transfer the scan information to SFM.

SFM is linked to I-GUIDES and the pop-up in this picture shows the data has been retrieved successfully. The mechanic checks the serial number, cage code and part number.


23

The Actuator CAGE, Original Part Number and Serial Number = UII D821062ARV01110-00080013 are collected and

linked to the parent aircraft UII.


24

The Actuator installed on the aircraft with the UID mark visible.


UID Shop Floor Callboard Action• If the record is not found in I-GUIDES, the technician must manually

enter the required data fields and a Callboard action is logged. • A F-35 UID integrator must resolve the issue to close out the call

board request.

25


Summary

• Clear requirements and upfront coordination with suppliers are essential in receiving correct UID marks and associated data submittals.

• Check points within the process help ensure correct marks and data are available when parts are scanned prior to installation.

• UID data is linked across multiple LMA databases (I-GUIDES, Automated Logistics Integrated System, SAP) and provides asset management throughout production and sustainment processes.
