The NATO Codification System (NCS) is a common supply
language which operates effectively in a multilingual
environment. It facilitates interoperability, curbs
duplication (both within nations and between nations),
permits interchange-ability,
and maximises logistics support in the most economical
manner possible. However, the primary goal of the NATO
Codification System is to ensure that military personnel
deployed in an operational scenario can be assured of
getting the right items to successfully complete their
mission.
