Feb 10 2022
At NECS, Inc., we are dedicated to keeping your food distribution business growing and adapting to the latest technological trends and standards.
GS1 standards support the information needs of end users that interact with each other in value networks.
The subjects of such information are the entities that are part of those business processes. Entities include things traded between companies, such as products, raw materials, packaging, etc.
GS1 standards may be divided into the following groups, according to their role in supporting information needs related to entities in value network business processes:
Identification Standards: These provide the means to Identify entities so that electronic information may be stored and/or communicated about them among end users.
Capture Standards: These provide the means to automatically Capture identifiers and/or data that is carried directly on physical objects, bridging physical and digital worlds, the world of physical things and the world of electronic information.
Share Standards: These standards provide the means to Share information, both between organizations and internally, providing the foundation for electronic business transactions, electronic visibility of the physical and digital world, and other applications.
