Lessons Learned from the Past…
“Over the course of a few years a new technology annihilated distance and shrank the world faster and further than ever before.”
Courtesy of Prof. Steve Woolgar – The Virtual Society? (2002)
“The benefits of the network were relentlessly hyped by its advocates and dismissed by the skeptics. Governments and regulators tried and failed to control the new medium and attitudes to everything from news gathering to diplomacy had to be completely rethought.”
what “New Technology” was it ?
“A worldwide network spanned continents and oceans, it revolutionized business practice and gave rise to new forms of crime. Romances blossomed. Secret codes were devised by some and cracked by others.”

Barcodes – Revolutionalise Check Out
In June of 1974, the first U.P.C. scanner was installed at a Marsh's
supermarket in Troy, Ohio. On June 26, 1974 the first product
scanned at the check-out with a bar code was Wrigley's gum.
Modern bar code began in 1948. Bernard Silver, a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology in Philadelphia, overheard the president of a local food chain asking one of the deans to undertake research to develop a system to automatically read product information during checkout. Silver told his friend Norman Joseph Woodland about the food chain president's request. Woodland was a twenty seven year old graduate student and teacher at Drexel. The problem fascinated Woodland and he began to work on the problem.

Not Everyone Was Convinced Then…
“I think the industry has sold itself on a program that offers solittle return that it simply won’t be worth the trouble and expense.”
A Midwestern Grocery Chain Executive discussing the potential of the barcode in 1975*

GS1: A global system of standards
GS1 standards provide a framework that allows products, services, and information about
them to move efficiently and securely for the benefit of businesses and the improvement of people’s lives, everyday, everywhere

GS1 eCom
15
• GS1 eCom standards provide solutions for
multiple sectors using the same eCom
message. This is achieved through context
driven extensions applied to general GS1
eCom, for example food industry,
entertainment, office supply, textile, etc.
GS1 eCom standards are MULTISECTORAL

• GS1 eCom standards provide a
standardised and predictable
structure of electronic business
messages
• Business partners do not have to
negotiate the format and structure of
their messages

PO’s, Invoices and
other documents

GS1 eCom in the world of standards
17
• GS1 eCom standards are based on global
standards, ensuring compatibility with existing
technology
• The most important standard bodies, providing
the basis for GS1 eCom standards are:
• UN/CEFACT – United Nations Centre for
Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business
• IETF – Internet Engineering Task Force
• ISO – International Organisation for
Standardisation
• W3C – World Wide Web Consortium
GS1 eCom is not developed in isolation
Transportation & Logistics
Helping industry ensure that the right things are in the right place at the right time

Transportation & Logistics
Today no transport and logistics
company can be efficient without robust
information technology and data
communication support.
GS1 standards help hundreds of T&L companies
• Improve efficiency• Improve tracking and tracing • Augment security • Boost speed• Reduce costs
GS1 standards in transportation & logistics

Transportation & Logistics
The building blocks of GS1 T&L standards are
• GS1 Logistics Label, with a main & mandatory field: SSCC - Serial Shipment Container Code
• A set of business message standards in XML and EANCOM formats
• A number of application identifiers (AI) specifically developed for the identification of
logistics units, including� AI (401) Consignment number
� AI (402) Shipment identification number
� Various AIs for the identification of locations

EPCIS = Electronic Product Code Information Service
Standard event capture and query interfaces to obtain and share data about unique objects within and across enterprises
Standard cross-industry technical framework plus industry specific standards
Is a supplement to, not a replacement of, existing enterprise systems
Answers What, Where, When and Why by capturing defined objects, quantity, aggregation, transaction and disposition events

Aerospace & Defence
Helping ensure the safe and secure manufacture and movement of critical parts
Ultimate Global Defence Visibility

The United States DoD can
already track containers via
active tag technology in
most areas of the global
Ultimately it will be possible
to do the same below
container level using Gen2
passive technology
But the real benefit comes not from gathering event data via
RFID technology, but from using that standard data as
information to transform current business processes into
more efficient and effective ways to support front line forces

Next steps + Opportunities
Next Steps
• Implement RFID portals in the 15 warehouses
• Enable 700 operational units with RFID
• Expand from 40 suppliers to all (663)
• Implement EPC Tags for location
Opportunities:
• Expand to other classes of products
• Other branches (Federal Police, Navy, Air Force)
• New services

Global Data Synchronisation
Providing master data synchronisation for more efficient value chains
© 2008 GS1
What is data synchronisation?
Every company has a database
filled with master data about the
products they make, or sell, or buy
But when one company needs to
change any bit of information in
their database or add a new item
to it, another database may not
be up to date anymore…!

Two Functions – One Tag

RFID Based EAS
34
Items secured using EAS• Systems know exactly where a specific item is
Items identified using EPC tags
Only specific items rung at POS are "deactivated"• Others will set off EAS alarm
Visibility of specific items throughout supply chain can detect
and prevent shrinkage from manufacture to shop floor

Integration of Item Identification & EAS = EPC
Supply Chain Operations
Fundamental process changes to gain better visibility in supply chains

But Why RFID ?

This pallet has at least one “inner core”.
That means that there are cartons inside the
pallet with no line of sight to their labels
Verifying all cartons present means you
must
•Drop the pallet
•Break it down
•Line up the label and scan the barcode on
each carton
•Rebuild and re-label the pallet
RFID can possibly read all labels as pallet
passes the antennae without stopping at all
