At the November GS1net User Groups, the GS1net Measurement Comparison Service was launched. This new free service will be available to all GS1net members who also use the GS1 Australia Barcode Testing Service.

If you would like to start receiving your GS1net Measurement Comparison report now, please contact measurementcomparison@gs1au.org or call 1300 BAR CODE (1300 227 263) for your report to be delivered to your inbox every fortnight.
