For the food supply chain, FSMA 204 is putting a spotlight on the need for and benefits of digitized data to easily exchange traceability information with trading partners and with regulators. Join this third digital seminar of our four-part series to learn:
- What supply chain traceability is and what benefits can be gained from improving supply chain visibility
- How healthcare is already leveraging their regulatory compliance to also deliver operational efficiencies, inventory control, and patient safety
- What questions to ask when creating a traceability plan, establishing record-sharing processes, and finding the right technology partners
Join Doug Baker, Vice President of Industry Relations, FMI, and Liz Sertl, Senior Director, Community Engagement, GS1 US, as they demonstrate how increased traceability and visibility, enabled by GS1 Standards, benefits consumers and supply chain stakeholders.
