SKUs are company specific. UPCs are unique. 12 digits = 1 billion. Sounds like too few to keep up with the bunch of products that exist today.
For the case of the Open Source Economy, where Distributed Market Substitution becomes a reality based on optimal products - the case for the UPC becomes strong. Keeping track of best versions is a good idea. Identifying an optimal version can promote its replication. Identify building block Modules in a Construction Set Approach can lead to collaboration. From the standpoint of generative construction sets - identifying the critical building blocks is important. Here OSE can join with UPC and GTIN standards to facilitate the open source economy.
Seed Eco-Home Case
Requirements for DMS:
- All building techniqeus and components are internalized into the Seed Eco-Home: CNC Sawmill, CEB Press, Solar Concrete, Large 3D Printer, Solar Steel, Solar Plastic, Solar Silicon. Add the Aquaponic Greenhouse, Solar Microfactory, and Solar Hydrogen so that the household becomes the new economy. Thus we turn full cycle in the etymology of the word 'economy,' while solving all Pressing World Issues.
