  1. GS1 Industry & Standards EventSept 27-1 Oct 2010 – AmsterdamCreating value together with global standards

    Serialisation Tuesday 21 September 2010 IUG Retail Value Chain, Consumer Electronics, Transport & Logistics Henri Barthel, GS1 Global Office Hosted by
  2. Purpose of this session Present an overview of the past, on-going and future work on Serialisation Get your guidance on prioritisation Get your commitment to participate in the work
  3. Why is Serialisation important GS1 has been the champion of product “type” identification since 35 years There is a growing trend towards product “instance” identification Why is that? Traceability at instance level Regulations (Health care) Fight against counterfeiting Supply chain management processes In 10 years from now, Serialisation will be the norm!
  4. Past activities (1/3) Nov 2008 to Nov 2009: Missing Identification Resolution: Technical guideline for the actions to be taken when a missing identification occurs in any part of the supply chain – Nov 2009 The guideline focuses on GTIN and SGTIN It addressed several use cases e.g. damaged bar code, damaged RFID tag Issued a change request that led to the creation of the “Serial Number Replacement of Supply Working Group”
  5. Past activities (2/3) Apr 2009 to Aug 2010: Serialisation project team High-level strategy on Serialisation published in Feb 2010 Business Opportunities Challenges Recommendations Standard gaps analysis This project team was not a formal GSMP working group; it does have any mandate to develop standard enhancements
  6. Past activities (3/3) Nov 2009 to Jul 2010: BC EPC Interoperability Requirements Requirements to resolve interoperability issues associated with the standards and implementation for bar codes and EPC 66 participants including representation from Retail, Manufacturing, Health Care, Consumer Electronics and Logistics Comprehensive BRAD with 26 requirements approved July 2010 6 requirements call for guidelines explaining how to encode, decode and manage data from bar codes and RFID tags 1 requirement relates to Capture and process EPCIS events where the physical objects are identified by GTIN + lot/batch (and not serial number)
  7. On-going activity Jan 2010 - : Serial Number Replacement or Supply WG Working group set up to specify the business requirements for how companies deal with the loss of a serialization on an instance of an item The Working group has issued a survey in order to gather information about business use cases involving the unique identification of trade item instances, where the party that assigns the unique identification is some party other than the brand owner of the product. The survey is available at http://www.keysurvey.com/survey/316767/1ce5/ Questions on this work and on the survey can be addressed to Mark.Frey@GS1.org
  8. Serial Number Replacement or Supply Examples of use cases BOOK TRADE: In most cases, publishers (the brand owners) are not the main parties tagging the products. Both they and non-brand owners (e.g. distributors, wholesalers, retailers) will therefore need to  be able to assign unique serialized numbers to ISBNs/GTIN13s HEALTHCARE Wholesale distributor breaks down a multipack of items that need to be individually tagged N.B. In both cases the items carry GTIN13s  but without serialization
  9. Standard enhancements opportunities Specify that the SGTIN serial number portion is equivalent to the serial number identified by AI 21 Define SGTIN as a GS1 key and assign an AI to SGTIN to designate a GTIN immediately followed by a serial number (tbc) EPC memory bank contents in bar code format Manage uniqueness of serial numbers assigned by other parties than the one assigning the GTIN Business messages and/or interface standards for delegating the allocation of serial numbers to other parties Capture and process EPCIS events where the physical objects are identified by GTIN + lot/batch
  10. Rules and Guidelines needed Serial number allocation rules including general allocation policies and possible reuse of serial numbers Guidelines including directions on the use of leading zeros, non-significance of the serial number, alpha-numeric versus numeric serial number User guidelines clarifying the encoding, decoding and handling of GS1 keys and attributes for both bar codes and RFID applications
  11. Discussion points Do you see Serialisation as strategic opportunity? What work items should be prioritised? Standard enhancements Delegation of serialisation to third parties Serial number allocation rules Guidelines Services that GS1 could provide to facilitate serialisation Do we need a new working group on these topics?
