HP Develops Cloud Service with GS1

HP announces along with the Canadian arm of GS1 -- a leading global nonprofit organization dedicated to improving supply chain efficiencies -- a cloud-based recall service that traces and removes potentially harmful food products from the supply chain.

The GS1 Canada Product Recall service will run on the HP cloud computing platform for manufacturing, which allows companies to see and share information across the supply chain. Food and consumer products organizations can use the service to reduce errors, decrease the amount of time it takes to respond to a recall, and mitigate the costs associated with managing the recall process.

Developed in conjunction with HP Labs, the company's central research arm, GS1 Canada Product Recall service consists of HP software, services and infrastructure as well as the Microsoft .NET Framework.

The initial rollout for the GS1 Canada Product Recall service targets the Canadian food industry. It is expected to extend to other industries and regions that require similar processes and services in the future. The HP cloud computing platform for manufacturing is available now.
