Global Upstream Supply Initiative

This project identifies ways to drive increased supply chain efficiency between Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) manufacturers and their suppliers of packaging, ingredients and raw materials. The result is the Upstream Integration Model (UIM) providing a flexible model of processes and messages covering areas such as integration agreements, data synchronisation, purchase, demand management and planning, incoming goods and financial accounting transactions. The working group focuses on the enhancement of the UIM, building awareness and encouraging the implementation of Upstream relating processes and GS1 standards, e.g. by the creation of a Business Case.
