GS1 SUNRISE 2027 IS COMING. IS YOUR PRODUCTION LINE READY?
CoLOS® 2D Advisory Services gives manufacturers a clear, expert-led path to assess their GS1 Sunrise 2027 readiness and prepare for GS1 Digital Link before making a single change on the production line.
GS1 Digital Link and what it means for manufacturers
GS1 Sunrise 2027 marks the point when retailers worldwide expect to scan GS1 Digital Link QR codes at checkout. For manufacturers, that could mean new coding requirements, new data demands, and new pressure on production.
Moving straight into GS1 Sunrise 2027 implementation without a clear picture of your current operations can mean wasted investment, avoidable downtime, and missed compliance windows. The smarter first step is understanding exactly where you stand today.

A structured, independent assessment of your production environment, coding processes, and operational readiness for GS1 Sunrise 2027, led by Markem-Imaje experts.
On-site audit
A full day at your facility, evaluating your current artwork, coding processes, data management, and vision inspection as they run, benchmarked against GS1 Sunrise 2027 requirements.
Independent recommendations
Findings covering production equipment, software infrastructure, data management, and coding processes, not tied to a predetermined solution.
Phase roadmap
A practical sequence for implementing GS1 Digital Link QR codes that protects production performance instead of interrupting it.
Gap analysis and prioritization
Clarity on what to prioritize and invest in to control the transition proactively, instead of reacting to problems later.
Why start with a GS1 sunrise 2027 assessment
Protect production performance
Surface potential challenges before they become costly problems on the line, not after.
Build a roadmap you’ll actually follow
A clear, phased sequence of steps in place of guesswork about where to start.
Prepare for the broader shift
GS1 Digital Link connects to a wider set of regulatory and retailer requirements. The assessment shows how ready you are for all of it.
Invest in what you need
Recommendations are based on your operations, not a standard package, so spend goes where it counts.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Do I need to be fully compliant with GS1 Sunrise 2027 by the deadline, or can I phase it in?
Most manufacturers phase it in. A readiness assessment is what lets you sequence the work, starting with your highest-priority lines or SKUs and rolling out from there, rather than converting everything at once.
Will the assessment disrupt our production line?
No. It's an evaluation, not an implementation. The goal is to plan changes that protect production performance, not to make changes during the audit itself.
