Hello,
        I'm starting an engineering support department in a new company and
     I'm looking for some suggestions on creating a part numbering system.
     It's a new telecommunications company which will eventually be ISO and
     BSA certified.
     I'll need part numbers for components, hardware, and drawing numbers.
     -Are there any standards that I should reference?
     -Any workmanship specifications that I could use as a guideline?
     -Some idea's on the amount of characters and category listings to use?

     Thanks,

     Raymond Smith Jr.
