org.cispec.model

recommended: any CI with an identifiable specific variant or SKU

org.cispec.model records the specific variant, SKU, or model designation of a Change Item within its product line.

In the three-field pattern manufacturer / make / model, model is the most specific identifier — the thing that determines which firmware applies, which maintenance manual governs, which warranty terms apply, which regulatory certification covers it, and when EOL occurs. A Catalyst 9300-48P and a Catalyst 9300-24T are the same make but different models with different port counts, power requirements, and supported feature sets. An F-35A and an F-35B are the same make but different models with fundamentally different landing systems.

model applies to the same full range of physical CIs as make and manufacturer — any manufactured thing where the specific variant matters for lifecycle management, safety compliance, regulatory filing, or technical applicability.

Value format

The model designation as the manufacturer uses it.

org.cispec.model=F-35B
org.cispec.model=9300-48P
org.cispec.model=797F-AC
org.cispec.model=S7-1500
org.cispec.model=Prevnar-13-0.5mL-prefilled

Conformance

org.cispec.model is RECOMMENDED for any CI with an identifiable specific variant. It is not REQUIRED for Declared conformance.

Attestation

model is independently attestable against the manufacturer’s product documentation, regulatory type certificates, or procurement records.

Resolution and relation

Every Change Item sharing the same model value (scoped within the same manufacturer and make) forms an edge in the namespace’s knowledge graph — “every F-35B” or “every Catalyst 9300-48P” is a real, expected query for targeted patch deployment, advisory response, and fleet-wide EOL planning.
