  • Modularity and Flexibility of the classification structure in order to meet industry objectives for the GPC. 
  • The logical grouping of bricks. The logic behind the schema should be transparent. 
  • All categorized information must be universally applicable, i.e. the terminology used in the schema should not be culturally or nationally biased. 
  • The schema is initially published in Oxford English with an explanatory glossary, which helps to clarify specific terms. Both the schema and the glossary are being translated to other languages.
  • Schema should facilitate the collection of relevant classification information, and allow it to be presented in a view acceptable by the industry. 
  • The schema can cover all products in the supply chain
