The GS1 US Rx EPCIS Conformance Testing Program is a voluntary program offered to support pharmaceutical industry members who are implementing EPCIS for DSCSA and traceability. The Program is designed to validate that an EPCIS event file follows the format and structure defined in the GS1 US Implementation Guideline to support interoperable EPCIS baseline functionality for the purposes of serialized item data exchanges.
If you’re a third-party testing service, you can become certified by GS1 US to administer the conformance tests (“certified conformance testing service”). As a certified conformance testing service, you’ll be able to conduct conformance testing for all test scenarios.
