The Benefits Of Standards For Supply Chain - A Chat With GS1 US' Melanie Nuce

Send me a messageStandards are super important, especially when it comes to ecosystems as diverse, and with as many stakeholders as supply chains.One organisation that has been crafting supply chain standards for decades is GS1 US. GS1 is the organisation that sets the standards around barcodes - the reason why when you scan an item at a self-checkout, the machine knows what the item is, and its price.I invited GS1's Senior Vice President, Innovation and Partnerships Melanie Nuce to come on the podcast to tell me all about what's happening in the world of standards, and what's new and interesting coming at us.We had a fascinating conversation covering the origin or barcodes, new potential use cases for them, and where to from here.Support the showPodcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's generous Subscribers:Alicia FaragKieran OgnevGary LynchAnd remember you too can become a Resilient Supply Chain+ subscriber  - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent episodes like this one and give you access to bonus episodes of topical, timely supply chain resilience analysis.🎤 Looking for a keynote speaker on supply chain resilience, AI, and sustainability?I help leaders understand the forces reshaping global supply chains, from geopolitical disruption and climate risk to AI and real-time decision-making. Download my Speaker Pack: https://tinyurl.com/spkrpckFinallyIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to just send me a direct message on LinkedIn, or send me a message using this link.If you liked this show, please don't forget to rate and/or review it.
