NSN Resolve, for the parts catalog’s messy middle
A federal-catalog lookup tool that turns imperfect part descriptions into National Stock Numbers, with bulk manifest handling in gated beta.
Field notes
The resolver accepts nameplate text that may contain misspellings, partial model numbers, or trade names, then attaches matching evidence rather than returning only an identifier. Its sample record combines an exact part-number match with a fuzzy two-edit manufacturer match, reports 78% confidence, and includes CAGE and unit-price fields. The page says bulk auction lots and inventory sheets can be processed into spreadsheets, but labels that workflow gated beta. Data is attributed to public DLA catalog releases and stamped by catalog month.
