- 13:26is
- 13:26very
- 13:27meaningful
- 13:27to

- 13:32means
- 13:32the

- 14:14and
- 14:14say,
- 14:15listen,
- 14:15this
- 14:16is
- 14:16what
- 14:16the
- 14:16requirement
- 14:17is.
- 14:17How

- 14:18we
- 14:18leverage
- 14:18the

- 14:21to
- 14:22help
- 14:22us
- 14:22become
- 14:22compliant?
- 14:23And
- 14:24starting
- 14:24with
- 14:24that
- 14:25foundation
- 14:25then
- 14:26allows
- 14:26us
- 14:26to
- 14:27number
- 14:27One,
- 14:27be
- 14:27able
- 14:27to
- 14:27move
- 14:28a
- 14:28little
- 14:28bit
- 14:28quicker
- 14:28because
- 14:29it's
- 14:29based
- 14:29off
- 14:29of
- 14:30implementation
- 14:31that
- 14:31we
- 14:31already

- 14:34chain.
- 14:35But
- 14:35two,
- 14:36it
- 14:36also
- 14:36allows
- 14:37me
- 14:37to
- 14:37be
- 14:37able
- 14:38to

- 14:44that
- 14:44I
- 14:44have
- 14:44as
- 14:45a
- 14:45business.
- 14:45Right.
- 14:45So
- 14:45my
- 14:46investment
- 14:46may
- 14:46look
- 14:47differently
- 14:47depending
- 14:48if

- 14:54outside
- 14:54of
- 14:54the
- 14:54country.
- 14:55Right.
- 14:56So
- 14:56the
- 14:57standards
- 14:57allow
- 14:58those
- 14:58solutions
- 14:59to
- 14:59really
- 14:59be

- 16:09implement
- 16:09something
- 16:10that
- 16:10can
- 16:10help
- 16:10you

- 16:11data
- 16:12in
- 16:12the
- 16:12field
- 16:12with

- 16:13printer
- 16:14for
- 16:14a
- 16:14couple
- 16:15hundred,
- 16:15couple
- 16:15thousand
- 16:16dollars.
- 16:16Right.
- 16:16All
- 16:17the
- 16:17way
- 16:17up
- 16:17to
- 16:17the
- 16:17multimillion
- 16:18dollar

- 16:24that
- 16:24you

- 16:25And
- 16:25I
- 16:26think
- 16:26it
- 16:26is
- 16:27a
- 16:27challenge
- 16:27because
- 16:27everyone
- 16:28knows,
- 16:29knows
- 16:30that
- 16:30there's
- 16:30additional,
- 16:31but
- 16:31it's
- 16:31hard
- 16:31to
- 16:31put
- 16:32a
- 16:32number
- 16:32on
- 16:32that
- 16:32cost
- 16:33because
- 16:33there's
- 16:33so
- 16:33many
- 16:33variables.
- 16:34What
- 16:35size
- 16:35business
- 16:35am
- 16:35I,
- 16:35what
- 16:36capabilities
- 16:36do
- 16:36I
- 16:36have
- 16:37today?
- 16:37What
- 16:38do
- 16:38I
- 16:38need
- 16:38to
- 16:38implement?
- 16:39Right.
- 16:39So
- 16:39I
- 16:40talked
- 16:40about
- 16:40traceability
- 16:41lock
- 16:41code
- 16:42and
- 16:42traceability
- 16:42lock
- 16:43code
- 16:43source
- 16:43being
- 16:44two
- 16:44additional
- 16:44pieces.
- 16:45Well,
- 16:46let's
- 16:46say
- 16:46I'm
- 16:46a
- 16:46distributor,
- 16:47I'm
- 16:47capturing
- 16:47product
- 16:48that
- 16:48comes
- 16:48in
- 16:48and
- 16:48product
- 16:49that
- 16:49goes
- 16:49out.
- 16:50So
- 16:50I'm
- 16:50not
- 16:50always
- 16:50tying
- 16:51the
- 16:51traceability
- 16:51lock
- 16:52code,
- 16:52but
- 16:53maybe
- 16:53I
- 16:53have
- 16:53a
- 16:53homegrown
- 16:53system,
- 16:54so
- 16:54it's
- 16:54going
- 16:54to
- 16:54cost
- 16:55me
- 16:55a
- 16:55lot,
- 16:56probably
- 16:56more
- 16:56money
- 16:57than
- 16:57some
- 16:57others
- 16:58to
- 16:58crack
- 16:58open
- 16:59the
- 16:59system
- 16:59and
- 16:59write
- 16:59some
- 17:00new
- 17:00code
- 17:00to
- 17:00get
- 17:00some
- 17:01of
- 17:01those
- 17:01new
- 17:02fields
- 17:02in
- 17:03place.
- 17:03Or
- 17:04maybe
- 17:05I'm
- 17:05using
- 17:05a
- 17:05well
- 17:06known
- 17:06ERP
- 17:07system
- 17:07and
- 17:07I
- 17:07can
- 17:07say,
- 17:08hey,
- 17:08I
- 17:08know
- 17:08you've
- 17:08got
- 17:09this
- 17:09data
- 17:09field,
- 17:09can
- 17:09you
- 17:10bring
- 17:10it
- 17:10in?
- 17:10And
- 17:10that
- 17:10cost
- 17:11structure
- 17:11is
- 17:11going
- 17:11to
- 17:11look
- 17:11a
- 17:12little
- 17:12bit
- 17:12different.
- 17:13So
- 17:13I
- 17:13think
- 17:14it's
- 17:14hard
- 17:15to
- 17:15put
- 17:15a
- 17:15cost
- 17:15on
- 17:15there
- 17:16for
- 17:16everyone.
- 17:16But
- 17:16I
- 17:16think
- 17:17this
- 17:17is
- 17:17where
- 17:17the
- 17:17standards
- 17:18allow
- 17:18that
- 17:19cost
- 17:19to
- 17:19be
- 17:19palatable
- 17:20for
- 17:20the
- 17:21size
- 17:21of
- 17:21organization
- 17:22that
- 17:22they
- 17:22are
- 17:22and
- 17:22the
- 17:22capabilities
- 17:23that
- 17:23they
- 17:23need
- 17:23to
- 17:24add
- 17:24on.
- 17:24Whether
- 17:24they're
- 17:25just
- 17:25looking
- 17:26at
- 17:26the
- 17:26minimum
- 17:27data
- 17:27set
- 17:27for
- 17:27compliance
- 17:28or
- 17:29they're
- 17:29really
- 17:29going
- 17:29to
- 17:30that
- 17:30gold
- 17:30standard
- 17:31implementation
- 17:32where
- 17:32we're

- 19:18code
- 19:18information
- 19:19at
- 19:20every

- 19:22chain.
- 19:23And
- 19:23as
- 19:23they
- 19:24did
- 19:24that
- 19:24and
- 19:24they
- 19:24got

- 19:28they
- 19:28could
- 19:29automate

- 19:30So
- 19:31the
- 19:31folks
- 19:32that
- 19:32were
- 19:32working
- 19:32in
- 19:33those

- 19:38products
- 19:38that
- 19:39were
- 19:39back
- 19:39there.
- 19:39And
- 19:39it
- 19:39gave
- 19:39them
- 19:40everything
- 19:40they
- 19:40needed
- 19:41around
- 19:41the
- 19:41freshness,
- 19:42the
- 19:42lock
- 19:43code,
- 19:43should
- 19:43a
- 19:43product
- 19:44come
- 19:44into
- 19:44question.
- 19:45And
- 19:45they
- 19:45really,
- 19:45they
- 19:46estimated
- 19:46that
- 19:47about
- 19:479,200
- 19:48of
- 19:48hours
- 19:48of
- 19:49labor
- 19:49could
- 19:50be
- 19:50saved
- 19:50annually
- 19:51because
- 19:52that
- 19:52information
- 19:52was
- 19:53automatically
- 19:53available
- 19:54and
- 19:54there
- 19:54was
- 19:54no
- 19:54manual
- 19:55process
- 19:55involved,
- 19:56which
- 19:56was
- 19:57a
- 19:57savings
- 19:57of
- 19:57over
- 19:57$100,000
- 19:58a
- 19:58year.
- 19:59Right.
- 19:59So
- 19:59think
- 19:59of
- 20:00even
- 20:00just
- 20:00taking
- 20:00inventory.
- 20:01I
- 20:01can
- 20:02automatically
- 20:02scan
- 20:02it
- 20:02with
- 20:03my
- 20:03phone
- 20:03as
- 20:03opposed
- 20:03to
- 20:03somebody
- 20:04going
- 20:04in
- 20:04the
- 20:04back
- 20:04room
- 20:05and
- 20:05clicking
- 20:05things
- 20:06off.
- 20:07And
- 20:07I
- 20:07would
- 20:07say
- 20:07reversely,
- 20:08on
- 20:08the
- 20:08brand
- 20:09side,
- 20:09we
- 20:09did
- 20:10success
- 20:11story
- 20:11with
- 20:12Ocean
- 20:13Mist
- 20:13last
- 20:14year,
- 20:14and
- 20:14they
- 20:15had
- 20:15also
- 20:15found
- 20:16as
- 20:16they
- 20:16were
- 20:16harvesting
- 20:16product
- 20:17and
- 20:17putting
- 20:17all
- 20:17this
- 20:18information
- 20:18on
- 20:19the
- 20:19cases
- 20:19of
- 20:19product,
- 20:20that
- 20:20they
- 20:20were
- 20:21saving
- 20:2125
- 20:22to
- 20:2235%

- 20:25time
- 20:25savings
- 20:26from
- 20:26their
- 20:26crew.
- 20:27So
- 20:27they
- 20:27were
- 20:27increasing
- 20:28their
- 20:28efficiency
- 20:29because
- 20:29they
- 20:29could
- 20:29see
- 20:29exactly
- 20:30what
- 20:30was
- 20:30happening
- 20:30in
- 20:30the
- 20:30field
- 20:31and
- 20:32when
- 20:32it
- 20:32was
- 20:32going
- 20:32into

- 20:33time.
- 20:34Which
- 20:34let's
- 20:35think

- 20:35that.
- 20:35That
- 20:36also

- 20:37rotation,
- 20:38first

- 20:39first
- 20:40out,
- 20:40which
- 20:41could
- 20:41even
- 20:41affect
- 20:42some
- 20:42of
- 20:42the
- 20:42waste
- 20:42reduction.
- 20:43Right.
- 20:43That
- 20:43we
- 20:44see
- 20:44that
- 20:44is

- 20:44prevalent
- 20:45in
- 20:45the
