Consider the assigned shelf life, the maximum acceptable age of the material when offered or delivered to the government (or both), and any special packaging or marking that may be required. This information will normally be specified in the technical description for NSN items. A minimum guaranteed shelf life may also be specified. Guidance for the age on delivery is given by the standardization/engineering offices in the “Standards Engineering Desk Guide.
