3 3 GS1 System Development Process Objectives Implement a single system development process across GS1 Achieve a common and integrated process for standards, guidelines, solutions and services Leverage the best practices for process management across GS1 Will ensure that development includes relevant industry and technical expertise Will ensure guiding principles of existing GS1 standards development are maintained(GSMP and EPCglobal SDP)

4 GS1 System Development – GS1, EPCglobal, SDP Future GS1 Current StateEPC Current State System Dev Process Future Standards – 6 step process including Business Needs, Business Requirements, Solution Design, Approval and Ratification, Post Solutions – Variation of 6 step process Services – Not fully defined Standards – 11 step process including Business Needs, Business Requirements, Approval, Technical Standard Development, Prototype, Approval, IP review, Ratification Solutions and Services – Not defined Standards, Solutions and Services  Statement of Business Needs  Mapping of Needs against existing Solutions, Standards  Detailed Requirements Gathering & Analysis  Business Solution Design (A Standard? Solution? Guideline?)  Development  Pilot or Prototype  Approval (for all) and Ratification (for Standard)  Implementation Support DEVELOPMENT PROCESS Full development process for Complex and New Requests

20 Governance Standards will be ratified by GS1 Management Board Board Committee for Standards will review standards and make recommendation to MB. (Informal advice and guidance from EPCglobal Board Technology Committee as required) Solutions/Services releases are approved by GS1 CEO GS1 Architecture Group Reviews and provides recommendations for all relevant business requirements, standards, solutions and services under development against the GS1 Architecture through the Architecture Review Process Process Leadership Committee Combination of roles of GSMP Process Group and EPCglobal Business and Technical Steering Committee Oversight of process and system development work for standards

21 Clarification of Business Needs Versus Business Requirements Business Needs Definition and prioritization of generic business opportunities and problems that an industry wants to solve Expected impact on community (e.g. financial, geographic) Business case definition Business Requirements Detailed process understanding and detailed specification of what end users will require in order to solve the problem or take advantage of business opportunity Includes specific parameters and details that can be used to define a standard, guideline, solution or service

22 Business Needs and Requirements Business Needs and Business Requirements should define the need for: GS1 Standards GS1 Solutions GS1 Services Then it can be determined if the needs apply to: Maintenance of EXISTING Standard, Solution or Service Or a NEW Standard, Solution or Service

23 Definitions (Expanded definitions in GS1 Glossary of Terms) GS1 Standards: Specifications for identifiers, attribute data, bar codes, RFID tags, data exchange and interfaces that ensure interoperability and consistency throughout supply chains. (e.g. EPCIS, Party Sync) GS1 Solutions: Bundled package of GS1 Standards and/or services designed to meet a business need. (e.g. Traceability, Extended Packaging) GS1 Services: Facilities or software that provide benefit or assistance in support of the implementation of GS1 standards and solutions. (e.g. ONS, GR, GEPIR) All GS1 Standards, Services and Solutions are created using GS1 System Development Process These are working definitions and subject to change as a result of ISDP work.
