Trading Partner Adoption Toolkit

“We are all set. How can we involve our trading partners and begin to use EPC/RFID to conduct daily business with them?”

A key benefit of Electronic Product CodeTM/Radio Frequency Identification (EPC/RFID) implementation is sharing EPC/RFID information with trading partners. The EPCglobal US Trading Partner Adoption program is a resource that will help you streamline collaboration with your trading partners, yielding faster returns for all supply chain participants. EPCglobal US Subscribers use the exclusive scorecard and planner to get their suppliers on board faster in order to start sharing information sooner, leading to accelerated ROI for the trading partner network.

Still in development, the Trading Partner Adoption program will provide:
