17. Global Traceability Conformance
GS1 GTC
Global Traceability Conformance

18. GS1 GTC – What are we building?
Develop a Global Conformance Programme:
Methodology, technical criteria and technical documents
Based on the GS1 Traceability Standard (GTS)
Compliant with ISO 22005
Optional : additional requirements (BRC, SQF, IFS, HACCP…)
Used for :
Self-assessment
Audit by GS1 MOs and third parties/ possibility of GS1 Seal
Benefits :
Facilitate GTS adoption
Ensure the right implementation
Provide the possibility to:
Define a Minimum Traceability level for every actor of the chain
Have an international independent party for traceability reference and recognition
Address the main international traceability regulations, standards bodies and commercial requirements.
O que estamos fazendo é para rastreabilidade de toda a cadeia  rastreabilidade externa .. Acreditar a rastreabilidade de toda a cadeia
Vamos dar um selo, de maneira de dar confiança para todos parceiros de negócios…
GS1 vai garantir que as empresas cumprem como standard.  Não vai garantir os dados que a empresa passa para a cadeia, mas sim que ela tem as informações..
SELO = GTS + ISO (estabelece um caminho, uma rota para fazer as correções.. Self assessment  Reconhecido pelo GO e por todas as MOs  Selo internacional
The foundational framework is going to be useful for any product but shall begins with the feed and food chain 18

19. Deadlines Status : Steering group established Community Room working
Checklist to be used for the Audits (Control Points & Compliance Criteria) done and next to be balloted
Programme Regulation first draft done - Accreditations, Seal Awarding and Liabilities of parts
Auditor training material done - (based on ISO 19011) – (in Spanish)
Objective in June 2008 :
Approve the Conformance Programme
Develop marketing materials
Contact : Juan Pablo Vial,
Take part of
GS1 Traceability WG
Muito imporante contar com a ajuda das empresas para desenvolver e validar este programa.
Estamos planejando uma reuniao em Julho/Agosto F2F com usuários
Officinas regionais vão dar o selo mediante a auditorias as empresas …. Selo reconhecido pelo GO, tranversal as indústira, para qq tipo de setor.
Regulamentação  22 de abril distribuição para o grupo …
Final do ano todo processo, selo, etc… 19
