Efficient Processes in Waste Management

Preparing Europe for Global Markets

©2007 GS1 US©2008 GS1 in Europe

Aim

• Positioning of GS1 standards within the logistic chain of „waste“ and as best practice example for additional areas (e.g. WEEE)

• Seek awareness within the responsible European Community organisations and decision-makers with reference to the GS1 standards


Mission GS1 in Europe

• Create a strong relationship between GS1 and the EU Commission for the value of the European Economic Region.

• User companies will benefit from a harmonised approach by European GS1 organisations for creating and implementing standards for Supply & Demand Chain Management.

EU involves27 countries

GS1 in Europe counts

45 countries


• In December 2004 GS1 in Europe was established: a strong commitment to better support > 600 000 European users in 27 EU countries and beyond

• A Memorandum of Agreement was approved: clear rules and procedures

• 45 MOs non-profit, neutral, multi-sectoral already:a strong force in Europe to promote and support the implementation of GS1 standards

• A budget and a business plan is approved:clear drive for concrete results

GS1 in Europe is established!


Co-operation with EU Commission

• GS1 in Europe is the qualified European solution provider for global standards and processes

• Providing information about the global scope and services of GS1 in Europe

• Establishing partnership with EU associations, directorates general and political environment for development and implementation

• Supporting the new strategic framework i2010 – European Information Society for Growth and Employment

Waste Related Projects


Target Areas Driven by Regulation

• Film Plastic used on Farms• System to track and trace all plastic from

manufacturers to farms • Levy system to pay for collection and recycling • Prevention of illegal trade and fraud• Operational for two years – scope being expanded• Using core GS1 Standards expansion to RFID

planned


Target Areas Driven by Regulation

• WEEE Regulations (Target Area – DIY/Hardware)• National requirements require that invoicing

between trading partners in WEEE charges• Modification to existing Electronic Commerce

messaging (Invoice Credit Notes) to cater for the local requirements

• National regulations differ from country to country –barrier to trade.


Current Developments

• Central Database (GDSN Datapool) capturing waste related data• Packaging requirements (Green Dot Structure type

and weight)• WEEE (category and charge)• Dangerous goods information• Parameters Recyclable , Returnable , Compositing

, Energy Use, Reusable

EDM-Electronic Data Management


Background

� Basic data on enterprises, sites and - in part -installations are required for various purposes in the economy and administration� For internal economic purposes

�In-company organisation, logistics�Procurement and accounting

� For public administration �Applications for permits, granting of permits�Record-keeping and reporting obligations

� At present, logics of reporting, structures and level of detail vary for the different fields of application

EDM-Environment


What is EDM-Environment?

• An integrated EGovernment application:Replaces conventional paper-based records and reports (including applications submitted to the authorities) through efficient electronic data management in line with international standards (e.g. with regard to barrier-free access for disabled people) in the environmental field

• Contribution to i2010 An EU policy framework promoting the positive effects of information and communication technologies (ICTs) to the economy, society and personal quality of life


What are the objectives of EDM?

� Reduction of the administrative burden on authorities and companies � Integrated comprehensive system for the entire environmental field

and thereby optimised utilisation of synergies between different domains � Integration with other EGovernment Register

(eg Austrian company register)� Utilisation of international EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) standards

well-established in the economy for messages and unique international identification system(of companies, locations and installations)

� Single sign-on for all users and all applications� Prevention of data redundancy, in particular by a centralised master

data management across applications (eRAS) � To the extent possible use of already available data

(eg from Procurement and accounting)


Consequences for Implementation

� Unique data type definitions for all applications� Multisectoral data and message definitions � Utilisation of internationally unique, cross-sectoral identification

system GS1 for all identifiable objects within EDM � Global Location Number for companies, locations, installations� Global Trade Item Number for types of services,

treatment operations , wastes, …� International standardisation (UN/CEFACT)� International co-operation (EUDIN)� Transmission options: standardised messages, XML upload, online input

depending on communication frequency / data volume / feasibility of integration into the corporate IT system of the companies

� Consideration already in draft legislation

PrecedentsGS1 Hungary: results of Waste Management project

• Professional cooperation between GS1 Hungary and the Ministry ofEnvironmental Protection and Water Management from 2002

• Focusing on the issues of identifying packaging assets and components

• Expert study: comparative analysis of the terms, tasks and commitments included in the Hungarian laws on environmental product tax and waste management, and in the EU directives related to waste management.

• Starting the development of Electronic Hungarian Waste Management System (e-HWM system)

• Ministry uses e-HWM system since 2003


Cooperation with Customs AuthorityGS1 Hungary: results of Waste Management project

• Significant changes were made in the Hungarian laws related to environmental product tax and its waste management „link-ups” in 2008

• Obligations came under the scope of the Hungarian Customs Authorities

• Agreement between Ministry and Customs Authorities on common use of e-HWM system in 2006

• Beginning of a professional relationship between the customs authority and GS1 Hungary in this area of specialty in 2007

• Transforming and improving e-HWM system by GS1 Hungary to provide full support to law related tasks of the customs authority (2007-2008)

GS1 standards based XML messagesGS1 Hungary: results of Waste Management project

• Possibility to submit the data service obligations to the customs authority in XML format from 2008

• The customs authority indicated its willingness to support the work out, application and publication of such GS1 standards based messages, that meet law specifications in terms of data content and support the spreading of electronic data service.

• GS1 Hungary has been given the opportunity to begin working out XML templates in accordance with GS1 standards to reach the goals above
