Questions such as "What do I have to mark and in what way?", "Where exactly does the code go?", "What exactly are GS1 standards?" or "Who will assure me that I am doing it correctly in the end?" are just some of the questions that companies are confronted with in the beginning of the project. This was no different for OHB Teledata GmbH. Here too, the company was faced with the decision of whether to tackle the issue internally and with an uncertain outcome or seek external help. In the end, they chose the support of the oneIDentity+ experts to successfully implement the project in an efficient and timely manner. This is the project report.
