Year in Review - 2010 - GS1 Australia

Delivering a GS1
Australia Services
Collaboration Zone
GS1 Australia has embarked on a three-year Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) program to put in place the infrastructure for a webbased
GS1 Collaboration Zone. This will be a gateway to the full suite
of GS1 Australia services with a single point of entry and a secure,
single-sign-on facility which will include access to GS1 Recallnet and
GS1 Locatenet.
Year In Review
41
All services will be hosted on GS1’s private cloud infrastructure platform
and will offer high availability of services to GS1 Australia members.
In 2010 GS1 Australia’s Business Solutions team undertook an enterprise
architecture review to determine the overall scope of the project. In 2011 it
will transition GS1 Locatenet and GS1 Recallnet to the cloud infrastructure
and implement an authentication service for the GS1 Collaboration Zone.
This will be followed by the implementation of the Product Information Form
(PIF) service for industry and the development of an information security
framework and an operational management framework to ISO standards.
Once this is in place, each GS1 member will have access to the portal to
maintain their own profile and to access services.
