Control
The maintenance organization for codes for the identification of federal and federally assisted organizations for the PIV FASC-N is the Department of Commerce in coordination with the General Services Administration and the Departments of Homeland Security and Commerce. Federal departments and independent agencies are invited to assist in the maintenance of this publication by submitting copies of newly implemented tables of organization that affect any listing. Such changes should be submitted to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) through the online request form located at http://piv.nist.gov/ or via e-mail to [email protected] with "SP 800-87 Update Request " in the subject line.
The two leftmost characters of each code form a component data element which is identical with the two- digit numerical code used in the federal budgetary process to identify major federal organizations. This component, designated as the Treasury Agency Symbol (TAS), is maintained by the U.S. Department of the Treasury; and the National Archives and Records Administration legislatively owns the records.
