New Fee Structure for all GS1 Members
From 1 July 2008, all GS1 membership fees will be based solely on the annual turnover of companies. This new structure will be far more affordable for SME's in particular and will result in most members paying lower annual fees.
Background
Last year GS1 Australia conducted extensive research into our entire membership base as part of our commitment to meeting the needs and improving our service to members. The results confirmed that our membership is becoming more diverse, with a much larger percentage of SME businesses (as according to Australian Tax Office criteria) and that a review of the existing fee structure was needed.
Your role in revising the fee structure
Before GS1 Australia can introduce the new fee structure, we aim to contact all members and collect their turnover details. To achieve this, in March 2008:
- All members were sent a letter asking for turnover details
- Members who provided us with an email address were also contacted electronically
- Subscribers to our membership magazine LiNK - The Supply Chain also read the double-page feature article on page 8
This information will be used to confirm that our proposed fee structure will deliver an equitable outcome for all members, and to ensure that each organisation is charged the correct fee and given the necessary support to maximise the membership benefits.
Once we have collated turnover details we will confirm the final membership fee structure and identify which band your organisation fits into.
If you have not already provided this information please submit your details using one of the two options below:2. Membership Turnover Survey 2008 [online survey] - a one minute survey to be completed online.
