ERROL KENNEDY NATIONAL VENDOR RELATIONS MANAGER JOHN DANKS & SON “ Three years ago, when I was first introduced to GS1 Australia, I had no idea who they were. I was aware that bar coding was important but did not appreciate how effective and important it is. Year In Review 24 We previously had 99 per cent of all retail items bar coded but less than 50 per cent at carton level. With the help of the Hardware GS1 Action Group we now have a 87+ per cent carton level of bar coding within all our DCs. This allows our warehouse personnel to put away products more efficiently and accurately resulting in higher service levels and more improved data accuracy. Without the Hardware GS1 Action Group, I don’t think that we could have achieved this level of improvement on our own. We would like to get to as close to 100 per cent of all items and all levels of packaging bar coded. We will continue to work with our suppliers and help them to get across the line to achieve this. This work will lay a strong foundation for the hardware sector to drive and support the adoption of electronic product-data synchronisation via GS1net. Once we have good data in the system, we can then expand our eCommerce initiatives. ”
ANNE HODGSON SENIOR BUSINESS MANAGER ORPHAN AUSTRALIA “ It was two years ago when Orphan Australia was about to commence submitting products for State Government Tenders that we first learned of the National Product Catalogue (NPC). We had previously enlisted the bar-coding services of GS1 Australia for all of our products and were already GS1 Australia members; we now enlisted their assistance for the NPC. We then commenced the process of populating the NPC via browser templates in conjunction with a very large state tender that was running simultaneously. The assistance and support given to me by the GS1 Australia Client Services Support Advisor continues to be absolutely invaluable throughout this entire process. Year In Review Item, price and product information was collected and transferred to the browser template for each product and presentation, information which forms the basis of the NPC – a single source repository of almost all pharmaceutical products in Australia. Information can now be easily downloaded for my purpose into tender documents. The data is easily maintained and updated where required for an accurate reflection of our products. 25 Orphan Australia is now a fully NPC-compliant company, with thanks again for all the support offered to us during this process from the outset by GS1 Australia. ”
