SMARTTRACEABILITY
Global standards improve efficiency, transparency and confidence
Due to the fact that GS1 standards are globally established, standardised and unique, they provide a clearly defined data format that enables the efficient use of traceability information. You can use the data, for example, to analyse your supply chains, view the supply chains of individual batches, assess the quality of suppliers’ data, communicate with consumers and provide clarification in the event of a crisis.

Sending and downloading data
Create a database for irreproachable traceability
Origin and manufacturing data is transferred to fTRACE and supply chain data relating to your products downloaded as follows:
- Data entry and transfer using the fTRACE DataEntry module
- Data download of standard or enriched premium data
- Connection to your own ERP system and automatic data exchange using an M2M interface
- Verification of data quality

Evaluating supply chain data
Achieve full transparency in your supply chains
The fTRACE tools DataView and DataReport allow you to tap into a new dimension of supply chain transparency – from a product’s origins to the finished product.
- View the entire supply chain for a specific product batch in one window
- Quick inspection of data quality and completeness
- Real-time interrogation of all traceability data in the supply chain

Communicate traceability information
Tell the story behind your products
Reinforce consumer confidence in your products and brands by making supply chain information transparent. Consumers can consult key supply chain information by scanning a QR code on the product packaging.
- Customise information to reflect your own corporate/brand design
- Customise content with flexible enhancements
- Integrate videos, images and recipes

Ensure the traceability on your fresh food counters
Greater efficiency, lower costs, increased confidence
Digitalising the processing steps of fresh produce sold on service counters brings time savings in terms of providing the statutory documentation. Not only does fTRACE enable the origin of the food to be displayed alongside the food in the counter, but information can also be accessed in a matter of seconds in the event of a food safety inspection.
