ansi vendor id and s/n
my qc manager wants our vendors to include their id and a serial number in the part marking but has no plan for standardizing their id or detailing the serializing process. this will lead to a lot of confusion when we look back at parts in stock. does anyone know of a spec or some past experience that will help us get this done right?
some of our vendors are small shops that don't have cage numbers so i can't use that system.
thanks
i'm not sure of a specification for this, but your company should have some list of "approved vendors". it might be as simple as assigning your approved vendors a number, and telling them to use the supplied number on the components they send to your company.
but what... is it good for?

if they supply partsa to the us government, they should have cage number assigned to them. use that as it is unique for that vendor.

ben,
please read my entire post; not all of our vendors have cage code numbers.
thanks anyway
we just state in a note on the part drawing to mark our own part number, rev level and just a simple two or three digit initals to identifiy the fabricator of the part.
maybe you can use a codebar generator
