Key learnings and outcome of the meeting:
Quality master data and data synchronization is fundamental for collaborative business processes (from supply chain planning, efficient replenishment, inventory, EDI to Category Management and efficient assortment) implementation between trading partners. However it costs not only data pool fees, but will require also organizational efforts. The benefits promises to be great as well.
The event was made possible thanks to
According to the meeting for successful data synchronization (GDS) and solving master data (MD) quality issues in Baltics the following steps to be taken:
- Engagement and support from major Baltic retailers;
- Joint forces with GS1 member organizations in Baltics and other Industry associations support;
- Call ECR Baltic Global Data Synchronization and Master Data management working group (please join the group, here! and poll for the first meeting in July 2012, here!);
- “Our homework” align and standardize product cards between retailers and manufacturers;
- Connection of local suppliers to global trade via GS1 GDSN certified data pool(s) introduction in Baltics – choosing the proper solution that suits our Industry needs;
- EDI solution providers involvement for mapping business processes, information exchange and workflow integrations inhouse and between trading partners.
