The first phase of our cooperation with GS1 Germany has been successfully completed. The company revolutionized the global exchange of goods almost 50 years ago with the GS1 barcode. Now the processes for creating the specifications and documentation of standards will become more digitalized and automated. As an expert in digital technical documentation and content delivery, parson is advising GS1 Germany on this project.
