The goal of Open 3P is to establish a common language for exchanging and sharing data related to packaging materials and processes, which will help to improve transparency and accountability in the industry.</p> <p>With Open 3P, stakeholders in the packaging supply chain will be able to share information about materials, components and packaging in a standardised format. This will allow for better collaboration between manufacturers, retailers, recyclers, regulators, and consumers. By creating a common understanding of the materials and processes involved in packaging, it will be easier to identify opportunities for reducing waste, increasing efficiency, and improving sustainability throughout the supply chain.</p> <p>The first phase of the project brought together stakeholders from the entire packaging ecosystem to explore how we might create the foundations for systemic change in the packaging value chain. We had more than 120 individuals from over 70 organisations take part in our workshops, interviews and research and we are incredibly grateful to them for sharing their time, expertise and support.</p> <p>Open 3P is based on the principles of open data, which means that it is freely accessible, sharable, and usable by anyone. It is designed to be flexible and adaptable to different contexts and use cases, so that it can evolve over time as new technologies and practices emerge. The development of Open 3P is guided by the OpenStand principles of:</p> <ul> <li>Due process</li> <li>Broad consensus</li> <li>Transparency</li> <li>Balance</li> <li>Openness</li> </ul> <p>which ensure that the standard is developed in a fair and inclusive manner, and that all stakeholders have a voice in the process.</p> <p>Overall, Open 3P represents an important step forward for the packaging industry, as it provides a foundation for greater transparency and collaboration across the supply chain. By adopting a common language for sharing and exchanging data, stakeholders will be able to work together more effectively to reduce waste, improve sustainability, and create a more circular economy.</p>"},{"location":"1_Start_Here/1_1_Introduction/#how-to-use-the-standard","title":"How to use the standard","text":"<p>To use the Open 3P standard, start by familiarising yourself with the terms and definitions outlined in the standard. These are used to describe the structure and components of packaging and the packaging supply chain. Next, map your data to the standard by using the terms and definitions as a guide. This will ensure that your data is consistent and can be easily shared and understood by others who are also using the standard.</p> <p>It\u2019s important to note that the Open 3P standard is not a technology or platform, but rather a set of rules and guidelines for how to structure data related to packaging. It is used to help people create technology, applications, and integrations that can work together to improve transparency and sustainability in the packaging industry. By using the Open 3P standard, you can ensure that your data is accurate, consistent, and interoperable with other systems that also use the standard.</p>"},{"location":"1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts/","title":"Key Concepts","text":"<p>Our goal is to rally as many organisations as possible to revolutionise the way packaging data is managed.

In a supply chain, different companies and people work together to get products from where they\u2019re made to where they\u2019re sold.</p> <p>There are various steps in the supply chain:</p> <ul> <li>Getting Materials: It starts with getting the materials needed to make something, like a car or a phone. These materials might come from different places around the world.</li> <li>Making Stuff: Then, companies use those materials to make the actual product. For example, a car company takes metal, plastic, and other parts to build cars.</li> <li>Moving Things Around: Once the product is made, it needs to get to the stores or customers who want to buy it. This involves shipping and transportation, which can involve trucks, ships, planes, and more.</li> <li>Selling and Supporting: Finally, the product gets to the stores or customers, who buy it. But the process doesn\u2019t end there. Companies often provide support, like customer service or repairs, to make sure customers are happy with their purchase.</li> </ul> <p>Key componets of an efficient and effective supply chain are:</p> <ul> <li>Collaboration: Different companies and people along the supply chain need to work together smoothly. If one part of the chain breaks down, it can slow everything down. For example, if a supplier can\u2019t deliver materials on time, it can delay production.</li> <li>Interoperability: This means making sure all the different parts of the supply chain can work together seamlessly. For example, the computer systems used by suppliers should be able to communicate with the systems used by manufacturers and retailers. If they can\u2019t, it can cause errors and delays.</li> </ul>"},{"location":"1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts/#the-packaging-supply-chain","title":"The packaging supply chain","text":"<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the supply chain for packaging, which is essential for protecting products and getting them safely to customers:</p> <ol> <li>Material Sourcing:<ul> <li>The supply chain for packaging starts with the sourcing of raw materials. These materials can include paper, cardboard, plastic, glass, metal, and various other materials used for packaging.</li> <li>Suppliers gather these materials from different sources, which could be forests for paper, oil refineries for plastics, mines for metals, or recycling facilities for recycled materials.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Manufacturing:<ul> <li>Once the raw materials are sourced, they are sent to manufacturing facilities where they are turned into packaging materials.

These standards ensure that data can be understood and interpreted accurately by both the sender and the receiver, facilitating seamless communication and interoperability.</p> <p>Here\u2019s a breakdown of key aspects of exchange data standards:</p> <ol> <li>Format and Structure: Exchange data standards specify the format and structure of data elements, including how they are organised, labeled, and represented. This ensures consistency in how data is presented and interpreted across different systems.</li> <li>Data Elements: Standards define the specific data elements or fields that are exchanged, along with their meanings and permissible values. This includes information such as names, addresses, dates, product codes, and financial transactions.</li> <li>Syntax and Encoding: Standards may also define the syntax and encoding used to represent data, such as XML (eXtensible Markup Language), JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), or EDI (Electronic Data Interchange). These specifications determine how data is packaged and transmitted between systems.</li> <li>Protocols and Communication: Exchange data standards often include protocols or communication guidelines for transmitting data over networks or communication channels. This can include protocols for data validation, error handling, security, and authentication.</li> <li>Industry Specificity: Many exchange data standards are tailored to specific industries or domains, such as healthcare, finance, retail, or manufacturing. These standards address the unique data requirements and regulatory considerations of each industry.</li> <li>Adoption and Compliance: Adoption of exchange data standards promotes interoperability and seamless integration between different systems and organisations. Compliance with standards ensures that data exchanges are consistent, reliable, and compatible with other systems within the same ecosystem.</li> </ol> <p>Overall, exchange data standards play a critical role in enabling efficient and accurate exchange of information between diverse systems, promoting interoperability, data integrity, and effective communication across various domains and industries.</p>"},{"location":"1_Start_Here/1_2_Key_Concepts/#data-exchange-standard-for-the-packaging-supply-chain","title":"Data exchange standard for the packaging supply chain","text":"<p>Implementing a data exchange standard for the packaging supply chain can bring numerous benefits and efficiencies to the entire process:</p> <ol> <li>Improved Communication: A data exchange standard provides a common language for communication between different stakeholders in the packaging supply chain, including raw material suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and end consumers. This common language facilitates clear and accurate transmission of information, reducing the risk of misunderstandings or errors.</li> <li>Enhanced Efficiency: Standardising data exchange processes streamlines the flow of information throughout the packaging supply chain. This reduces manual intervention, minimises delays, and improves overall operational efficiency. For example, automated data exchange can accelerate order processing, inventory management, and shipping logistics.</li> <li>Increased Visibility and Traceability: With a standardised data exchange framework, stakeholders gain better visibility into the status and location of packaging materials and products at each stage of the supply chain. This enhanced traceability enables more accurate forecasting, inventory management, and risk mitigation, such as identifying and addressing quality issues or supply chain disruptions more promptly.</li> <li>Better Decision-Making: Access to standardised data allows stakeholders to make more informed decisions regarding production scheduling, inventory levels, and resource allocation. Real-time data exchange enables quicker response to changes in demand, market trends, or regulatory requirements, optimising resource utilisation and reducing waste.</li> <li>Cost Savings: By streamlining data exchange processes and reducing manual errors, a standardised approach to data exchange in the packaging supply chain can lead to cost savings. Automation of repetitive tasks, such as order processing and invoicing, reduces labor costs and improves overall operational efficiency.</li> <li>Compliance and Regulatory Alignment: Many industries have specific regulations and standards governing packaging materials, labeling, and environmental sustainability.

The goal of Open 3P is to establish a common language for exchanging and sharing data related to packaging materials and processes, which will help to improve transparency and accountability in the industry.</p> <p>With Open 3P, stakeholders in the packaging supply chain will be able to share information about materials, components and packaging in a standardised format. This will allow for better collaboration between manufacturers, retailers, recyclers, regulators, and consumers. By creating a common understanding of the materials and processes involved in packaging, it will be easier to identify opportunities for reducing waste, increasing efficiency, and improving sustainability throughout the supply chain.</p> <p>The first phase of the project brought together stakeholders from the entire packaging ecosystem to explore how we might create the foundations for systemic change in the packaging value chain. We had more than 120 individuals from over 70 organisations take part in our workshops, interviews and research and we are incredibly grateful to them for sharing their time, expertise and support.</p> <p>Open 3P is based on the principles of open data, which means that it is freely accessible, sharable, and usable by anyone. It is designed to be flexible and adaptable to different contexts and use cases, so that it can evolve over time as new technologies and practices emerge. The development of Open 3P is guided by the OpenStand principles of:</p> <ul> <li>Due process</li> <li>Broad consensus</li> <li>Transparency</li> <li>Balance</li> <li>Openness</li> </ul> <p>which ensure that the standard is developed in a fair and inclusive manner, and that all stakeholders have a voice in the process.</p> <p>Overall, Open 3P represents an important step forward for the packaging industry, as it provides a foundation for greater transparency and collaboration across the supply chain. By adopting a common language for sharing and exchanging data, stakeholders will be able to work together more effectively to reduce waste, improve sustainability, and create a more circular economy.</p>"},{"location":"1_Start_Here/1_1_Introduction/#how-to-use-the-standard","title":"How to use the standard","text":"<p>To use the Open 3P standard, start by familiarising yourself with the terms and definitions outlined in the standard.

In a supply chain, different companies and people work together to get products from where they\u2019re made to where they\u2019re sold.</p> <p>There are various steps in the supply chain:</p> <ul> <li>Getting Materials: It starts with getting the materials needed to make something, like a car or a phone. These materials might come from different places around the world.</li> <li>Making Stuff: Then, companies use those materials to make the actual product. For example, a car company takes metal, plastic, and other parts to build cars.</li> <li>Moving Things Around: Once the product is made, it needs to get to the stores or customers who want to buy it. This involves shipping and transportation, which can involve trucks, ships, planes, and more.</li> <li>Selling and Supporting: Finally, the product gets to the stores or customers, who buy it. But the process doesn\u2019t end there. Companies often provide support, like customer service or repairs, to make sure customers are happy with their purchase.</li> </ul> <p>Key componets of an efficient and effective supply chain are:</p> <ul> <li>Collaboration: Different companies and people along the supply chain need to work together smoothly. If one part of the chain breaks down, it can slow everything down. For example, if a supplier can\u2019t deliver materials on time, it can delay production.</li> <li>Interoperability: This means making sure all the different parts of the supply chain can work together seamlessly. For example, the computer systems used by suppliers should be able to communicate with the systems used by manufacturers and retailers.
