For existing assets where the equipment identifier is illegible, not available in the field, and not available in the Turnover Form, then a typical equipment identifier may be used per NIH drawing standards. For newly installed assets, the project drawings and equipment schedules must depict unique asset identifiers per NIH drawing standards as identified in the Turnover Form.

3.18.2. Physical Asset Tags: All new or replacement assets shall have a physical tag containing the unique asset identifier.
