Axway Track & Trace is a GS1 standards-based solution that reduces the cost and complexity of complying with chain-of-custody and track-and-trace regulations for pharmaceuticals, food products and other manufactured goods.
In a single, open framework, Track & Trace enables you to:
- Associate and manage product master, distribution channel and serialised event data,
- Provide an EPCIS-compliant interface for internal and external trading partners,
- Extract and transform data to meet country-specific reporting requirements,
- Transmit compliance reports to partners or regulatory authorities with guaranteed delivery,
- Comply with emerging pedigree regulations in the U.S., the EU, and Turkey. Axway ePedigree is an integral part of Track & Trace, guaranteeing the authenticity of origin and indicating possession as pharmaceutical drugs move through the supply chain, thus providing a clear trail of ownership at each step of the process.
Track & Trace combines product lifecycle events from multiple sources, including distinct internal systems and channel partner sales data, to provide a single source of actionable intelligence for channel managers. Track & Trace can also be integrated into your order and customer management systems, so that managers can track channel performance against supply policies to quickly detect anomalies.
By associating serial numbers, product master data and distribution channel information throughout the product lifecycle, you can:
- Maintain a permanent link between a product (bulk or individual) and the initial distribution channel partner purchase order,
- Allow internal and external trusted parties to access product identification, location, status and event data at any point in the supply chain,
- Support field investigations, by providing remote query access to validate product identification and authorised sales channels using a serial number or a combination of criteria identifying the product,
- Define bespoke business rules, alerts, reports and dashboards to create a chain of evidence and help departments which are responsible for product security or brand protection to analyse information coming in from channel partners,
- Enable your customer service department to quickly answer customer, partner or consumer questions about the guarantee, recall or destruction status of a product.
You can deploy multiple Event Repositories at regional level to meet localised business objectives, and decentralise data storage and management of serialised events to reduce costs and risks. A central Event Repository can integrate the regional repositories to provide a global view of product lifecycle events across the company in support of regulatory compliance and other business objectives.
