Limited traceability increases risks for quality, compliance, and service
In global supply chains and manufacturing networks, end-to-end traceability of materials and production processes is essential for effective supply chain management and analysis. Depending on the criticality of the product and regulatory requirements, traceability must be ensured down to the individual batch level. However, information about components, batches, manufacturing processes, and suppliers is often scattered across multiple systems. In the event of a complaint, audit, or product recall, organizations must manually consolidate data. At the same time, missing documentation poses a significant financial risk. Discover how CONTACT Elements enables you to trace products, components, and assets throughout their entire lifecycle, helping you ensure quality, compliance, and supply chain integrity.
Your benefits
- Ensure quality faster
- Provide compliance documentation and sustainability information with minimal effort
- Use the digital twin as a reliable foundation for data-driven optimization
- Make decisions based on consistent data
- Precisely limit the scope of recalls

Seamlessly trace components and batches

Components, batches, and serial numbers remain linked throughout the entire digital thread – from raw material to the delivered product. Quality managers can identify at any time which components were used in which products and which deliveries they came from. This enables them to carry out root cause analysis much faster and precisely identify affected products.

Precisely locate quality issues

When quality issues occur, affected products, production lines, batches, or suppliers can be identified immediately. Instead of blocking entire batches as a precaution, the actual scope of the issue can be determined precisely. This accelerates corrective actions, reduces costs, and minimizes the impact on customers and production.

Track digital twins of products

Products can be serialized and represented by their digital twins. Installation information, tools used, manufacturing process data, as well as setup and calibration information are automatically linked to each individual product. This enables the digital twin to provide a reliable foundation for operations, service, audits, and data-driven optimizations.

Provide sustainability and compliance documentation

Traceable product and process data form the basis for regulatory compliance documentation and sustainability initiatives such as Trace-X. Information on material origin, certificates, and compliance is available in a structured format and can be provided consistently across the entire supply chain with minimal effort.
