Department of the Navy Standard Subject Identification Codes
Reference:
SSIC's are designed to meet the needs of the entire Navy
Department for a single standard subject scheme to be used for
classifying (numbering), arranging and filing, and
referencing various types of Navy and Marine Corps documents by
subject matter. This is required on all Navy and Marine Corps
letters, instructional forms and other official documents.
-
SSIC's provide for a convenient numerical classification
outline consisting of 14 major numerical series.
(1) May be broken into primary, secondary, and
tertiary subjects.
(2) A number to be assigned to any and all subject matters.
-
Correspondence files are always in SSIC order. This is
universal among Navy and Marine Corps.
-
Correspondence files are always renewed at the
beginning of each new calendar year.
-
Classified Documents will always have their SSIC
numbers prefixed by a certain number of zeroes.
a. Confidential documents' SSIC numbers are prefixed by 1
zero (I.E., CO1530)
b. Secret documents' SSIC numbers are prefixed by 2 zeros
(I.E., S001530)
