The Single National System (SNS) heralds an unparalleled and unique opportunity for the industry to consolidate its many core technology platforms onto one system. The SNS is already creating opportunities for greater efficiencies, removal of duplications in infrastructure in each State and Territory and substantive benefits for industry participants in many of their core interactions including but not limited to licensing, ownership/horse registration, stakes payments and bonus scheme administration. Stewards and Handicappers along with Racing Departments are amongst key industry stakeholders who will also benefit from access to the SNS. Importantly the SNS is not about changing who performs the business process rather providing a set of unified tools.
