1 Enhance Retail Chain Efficiency Through Barcoding at Carton Level

2 Agenda About GS1 and System of Standards Barcoding Standards on Cartons / Cases Adoption of GS1 Standards by Regulatory Bodies in India 2

3 GS1:The Global Language of Business GS1 is a neutral not-for-profit fit organisation di driven by its users, that facilitates collaboration amongst trading partners, to create more efficient, safer and sustainable value chains through global standards. GS1 standards used by close to 2 million companies worldwide Direct presence in over 100 countries serving 150 countries Used by 25 Industry sectors including Retail, Healthcare, Transport & Logistics, Food etc. 3

4 India GS1 India indicates India as country of origin GS1 India is standards based not-for-profit organisation promoted by the Ministryi of Commerce, Govt. of India and Indian Industry Board members include representatives from: Ministry i of Commerce BIS FICCI ASSOCHAM FIEO SPICES BOARD CII IMC Representations from all industries IIP APEDA Affiliated to GS1,, based in Brussels, Belgium 4 GS1 India

5 India GS1: A global system of standards 5 GS1 India

6 India GS1 ID Keys are nonsignificant, secur e, global, and unique numbers which support the identification of items, services, l ocations, logistic units and returnable containers. GS1 Identification Standards in Supply Chain GS1 ID Keys- Provide access to information held in computer files. GLN GIAI GTIN SSCC GSRN GRAI 6 GS1 India

7 India GS1 Standards - Ensure uniformity across supply chain partners Proprietary Standards (One to one relationship) Vs GS1 Standards (Many to many relationship) Manufacturer A Manufacturer B Retailer 1 Manufacturer C Retailer 2 7 GS1 India

8 India Barcode Usage - From Source to Consumption 8 GS1 India

9 India Current Retail Challenges Delivery Discrepancies, Checking and Sorting Orders Locating stocks and goods in warehouses FIFO Management Reverse Logistics Loss Prevention 9 GS1 India

10 India No Barcode on Cartons - Basic Challenge Cartons not barcoded Cut open carton and scan each items. This causes staff to assume and take chances = MISTAKES 10 GS1 India

11 India Carton Level Barcoding Enhances.. Efficiency Enables automate inventory management processes Facilitates linkage between physical supplies and related electronic information Facilitates accurate identification of damaged consignments for accurate reverse logistics Visibility Provides visibility and easy identification of physical supplies during transit to all Supply Chain partners Product Recall Facilitates efficient and accurate product recall notifications thus limiting liability and damages to both supplier and buyer Track and Trace Seamless communication between Supply Chain partners through use of common GS1 standards in product, consignment, entity identification and data exchange. Facilitates compliance with track & trace requirements of different Regulations and buyer requirements 11 GS1 India

12 India Barcode on Cartons - Decision Process 12 GS1 India

13 Packaging Hierarchy and Identification SSCC Primary (GTIN) Secondary (ITF-14, SSCC) Tertiary (GTIN, SSCC code) ) 13

14 Understanding Fixed / Homogeneous Containers When all units within the shipping containers are identical with same size, description, count, weight and /or GTIN code. Oriental Canaille Ambre Heterogenous Grouping of : 12 Oriental, 6 Canaille 6 Ambré GTIN-14 for heterogenous groupings of 24 Products: Different item ID 14

15 Understanding Variable / Heterogeneous Containers When all units within shipping container vary in some respect - different GTIN code, Color, Size, Weight, Quantity etc. Consumer (individual) item Carton of 6 consumer items Carton of 10 consumer items GTIN GTIN GTIN-14 Indicator digits 1 through 8 can be used to identify different levels of packaging's including carton or pallets. 15

16 Symbologies For Barcoding on Cartons ITF - 14 GS1-128 ITF-14 is adapted to printing on poor quality packaging material (e.g. corrugated cardboard) Designed to be read bi-directionally Limitation: Cannot encode information other than GTIN-14 (01) (15) (10) AF5893 GTIN-14 Date Batch No. GS1-128 uses application identifiers and can encode a wide range of information, like: Item identification Dates (Expiry/ Mfg. / Packaging / ) Batch No., Location No., etc. Trade quantities and measures Others Alphanumeric, Variable Length 16

17 Understanding GTIN-14 GTIN-14 is a 14 digit number assigned by the manufacturer to each standard packaging level unit above the SKU or Consumer unit. GTIN-14 Data Structure: GTIN Code Indicator Digit The indicator digit can be used to identify the standard packing configuration as illustrated below: Indicator Digit EAN Code Packing Size Numbers from 1 through h 8 can be used for the indicator digit. it Indicator 0 can be used in situations ti where carton is also the lowest unit of sale. 17

18 Understanding Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) Serial Shipping container code(sscc) is used to uniquely identify goods on the way from sender to final recipient i and can be used by all participants i t in the transporttand distribution ib ti chain. Each logistic unit at the time of its creation is uniquely identified by the Manufacturer or Supplier SSCC Data Structure: 18

19 Barcode Symbology used to encode SSCC SSCC can be encoded using GS1-128 Symbology as illustrated below: 19

20 Application Areas:- GTIN -14 The application of GTIN-14 when encoded on ITF-14 is limited to the trade items that are not scanned at the POS. Usage Benefits Used on standard trade items to identify the cartons, inner packs Intended for directly printing on corrugated cartons Enables fast and accurate inventory tracking and updation of non consumer trade items Easy identification of the contents of the cartons Less errors due to automated updating of inventory 20

21 Application Areas:- Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) Uniquely identifies the shipping unit Can be used as a reference number or license plate Can be used to extract relevant information held in ERP systems / computer files 21

22 22 SSCC and Electronic Business Messaging

23 GS1 Standards: Regulatory Mandates in India Canteen Store Department (CSD) CSD mandates suppliers to Incorporate GS1 barcodes on all products supplied to them.4,000 consumer items, 33 area depots, 3,500 Unit run canteens Alcoholic beverages Delhi State Excise Department mandates use of GS1 standards d for enhancing supply chain hi efficiency and product authentication Fresh Foods, Processed Foods Healthcare Agriculture & Processed Food Export Development Authority ( APEDA) using GS1 Standards for implementing traceability Directorate General of Foreign Trade and Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Govt. of (MoHFW) mandated the use of GS1 standards for pharmaceutical products to combat counterfeit products 23
