A five character code which consists of five numerals for Canada and the United States, e. g. 22733; and one letter followed by four numerals for the other nations, e. g. K4003. These codes are assigned by the National Codification Bureau to manufacturers which are sources of supply for items procured. The primary use of the code numbering system is in the machine accounting operations related to supply management programmes. The code numbers are assigned to establishments which are manufacturers or have design control of items of supply procured by agencies of the Government. The use of the system has been extended to include special non-manufacturing organizations primarily to facilitate procurement and the processing of cataloguing data. 2, record 2, English, - manufacturer%27s%20code
