WBS-ITT-58175

Description

The Welsh Blood Service (WBS) collects blood donations from voluntary donors across Wales and processes these donations into blood components for transfusion. Each donation is assigned a unique Donation Identification Number (DIN), which enables traceability from collection to transfusion.

The DIN system is essential for ensuring the safety of the blood supply. It provides a unique identifier that links blood components and samples collected during donation. DIN labels are a regulatory requirement, and this User Requirement Specification outlines how the labels procured for WBS will comply with these requirements.
