parson advises GS1 Germany on the use of knowledge graphs

March 15, 2023

We are pleased to announce that we have successfully completed the second phase of the digitalization project with GS1 Germany.

The goal: To provide its customers with more user-friendly and target group-oriented documentation, GS1 Germany wants to digitalize and partially automate their product information, technical documentation, and documentation processes.

The solution: In the second phase of this project, we supported GS1 Germany with selecting a knowledge graph system to manage the semantic GDSN data and its documentation. In addition, we developed an information architecture that meets the information needs of the target groups.

Read our success story and learn what the project participants have to say.
