Solutions for Supply Chain Enablement
Fueling world class supply chains, with trusted product information
Now, more than ever, global supply chains are under pressure to be agile and
transparent in the face of renewed consumer demand, and the massive rise of
omni-channel commerce. Businesses struggle to prioritize their deployment of
expert resources, driven by the pace of market changes and consumer preference.
Outside of conventional B2B challenges, emerging B2C trends around volume,
velocity, and complexity of product information are now influenced more than ever by
consumer demands.
In parallel, businesses are also faced with a myriad of existing and emerging supply
chain risk scenarios that threaten business continuity, brand reputation and customer
loyalty like never before. Product safety, corporate social responsibility, reverse logistics
and product recalls, new legal and regulatory requirements calls for more transparency
on labeling, sustainability and the environment. Safe and efficient supply chain
operations, in forward or reverse, are fueled by quality, timely and accurate product
information, synchronized among trading partners from source to settle.
Introducing 1WorldSync’s Supply Chain Enablement solutions – At 1WorldSync we firmly
believe that product information exchange between trading partners in a supply chain
belongs in the cloud. To this effect, we have built the industry’s most comprehensive
product information network that enables sales, supply chain, B2B and IT services teams

standardization and distribution of trusted product information within and across all
of the trading partners in a high performance supply chain. From structured product
data and information, to the controlled exchange of unstructured digital assets and
documentation, our solutions are centered on key focus areas in handling global supply
chain challenges and meeting consumer expectations.
