ITN’s Data Pool services provide a GDSN standards-compliant registration, publication, subscription and synchronization engine for all trading partners.
“ITN’s decision to seamlessly integrate the work that supply chain partners have already invested into the GDSN, and to create the cost synergies to do so should be welcome news to the many companies participating in the GS1 US Foodservice Initiative,” said Ann Oka, Senior Vice President, Supply Chain, Sodexo. Oka continued: “ITN continues to demonstrate leadership in promoting trading-partner collaboration and in helping companies maximize the cost effectiveness, speed, visibility, security and sustainability of their business processes.”
