Traceability Lunch & Learn

1. TraceabilityLunch & Learn

2. Summary Traceability today : applications and activities GTS and GS1 Traceability Solution Enabling technologies and GS1 system : what’s new ? Conformance program and implementation material Fresh Produce Traceability

3. Traceability around the world

4. Traceability • Is a business process that supports various business needs : • recalls, product quality/HACCP, anti-counterfeiting, logistics visibility, regulatory requirements… • Can be be achieved with various technologies : • barcodes, RFID, EDI, networks, mobile…

5. GTS – GS1 Global Traceability Standard • GS1 Global Traceability Standard • Business process description • Requirements for traceability systems • Framework for industry specific requirements and guidelines • GS1 Healthcare and Fresh Produce are adopting GTS • Adapting / validating requirements • Specifying technology capabilities for the sector • Developing specific implementation guidelines

6. GS1 Traceability Solution • Program to help GS1 Member Organizations to support users along the implementation path • Educational material • Implementation material & conformance program • Case studies and marketing material • Shows how to use all GS1 standards supporting traceability in the business context (GTS, GS1 128, EPCIS…)

8. Concretely ! Users (traceability stakeholders) : join Traceability Work Group • Objective : maintain GTS and facilitate implementation • Contact : diane.taillard@gs1.org GS1 Member organisations : join MOs Traceability WG • Objective : build GS1 Traceability solution and leverage expertise • Next meeting : May 14-16, Zagreb (Croatia) • Contact : anapaula.maniero@gs1.org

9. Conformance Program and Implementation Material

10. Traceability - Adoption path Awareness Identification of opportunity • Analysis • High level • business case • Implementation Roll out Maintenance User adoption path • GS1 sets materials for every step of the cycle life traceability project • GS1 provides materials whatever companies stage of implementation knowledge • GS1 supports WGs to create, validate and implement these materials Traceability Conformance Program Traceability Implementation Guideline Starter Kit: Simple Steps for Traceability Implementation

11. Starter Kit Simple Steps For Traceability Implementation

12. Starter Kit: Simple Steps for Traceability Implementation • Starter Kit • Set of printed and electronic material needed for companies to implement traceability whatever the stage of their implementation. • Simple Materials for easy traceability understanding • Simple Steps for Traceability Implementation : • Part of the “Starter Kit” • Sequence of ordered stages to follow in order to implement traceability • Quick overview, without details. • Simple concepts, simple understanding

13. Starter Kit: Simple Steps for Traceability Implementation – General Methodology Be aware • Tasks Outputs Analyse current conditions Diagnostic Set up the work structure and Scope Analyse needs and conditions Describe the Traceability System Working in Progress Design Technical solutions For each physical process that is relevant Validate Specification For each process Implement the Traceability System Training/Education and Documentation Using and Monitoring the traceability system Validation / Conformance Roll out and Maintenance

15. How to Implement Traceability Traceability Implementation Guideline – for MOs

16. Traceability Implementation Guidelines • Traceability Implementation Guideline : • Generic Material – sector independent • Support MOs to assist their members • HOW to implement traceability based on GTS (What and Who) • Practical Guideline : business plan template, technical specification or description model, etc • Validation and updating next month • Conference Call • F2F Meeting - May Contact : Ana Paula Maniero, anapaula.maniero@gs1.org

17. GS1 GTC Global Traceability Conformance

18. GS1 GTC – What are we building? • Develop a Global Conformance Programme: • Methodology, technical criteria and technical documents • Based on the GS1 Traceability Standard (GTS) • Compliant with ISO 22005 • Optional : additional requirements (BRC, SQF, IFS, HACCP…) • Used for : • Self-assessment • Audit by GS1 MOs and third parties/ possibility of GS1 Seal • Benefits : • Facilitate GTS adoption • Ensure the right implementation • Provide the possibility to: • Define a Minimum Traceability level for every actor of the chain • Have an international independent party for traceability reference and recognition • Address the main international traceability regulations, standards bodies and commercial requirements.

19. Deadlines • Status : • Steering group established • Community Room working • Checklist to be used for the Audits (Control Points & Compliance Criteria)done and next to be balloted • Programme Regulation first draft done - Accreditations, Seal Awarding and Liabilities of parts • Auditor training material done - (based on ISO 19011) – (in Spanish) • Objective in June 2008 : • Approve the Conformance Programme • Develop marketing materials • Contact : Juan Pablo Vial, jpvial@gs1chile.org Take part of GS1 Traceability WG http://community.gs1.org/join
