How do I get an item added to the equipment/pesticide list and assigned a National Stock Number (NSN)?

The procedure is described in “BugByte #10” Briefly: A current DoD Pest Management Professional (PMP) must sponsor the item in an issue paper before the appropriate AFPMB Committee. After review and discussion, the committee can recommend a National Stock Number (NSN) be issued. The AFPMB Council must officially approve the committee’s recommendation before an NSN can be assigned. NOTE: Any such NSN item must be supported by enough demand by the DoD or it might lose that NSN at the next periodic NSN review.
