Ensuring Traceability for Quality and Compliance
In an era marked by heightened consumer expectations, regulatory requirements and global supply chain disruptions, traceability has become a non-negotiable aspect of modern business operations. Whether you’re a manufacturer, distributor or retailer, the ability to trace products from source to destination is essential for ensuring product quality and safety. This includes meeting regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA, FSMA, GDPR), mitigating risk and minimizing the impact of recalls, building consumer trust and brand reputation, optimizing inventory management and reducing waste.
At enVista, we offer a comprehensive range of traceability solutions tailored to meet the diverse needs of today’s supply chain stakeholders:
Strategy
Food & Product Traceability

This deficiency typically requires considerable resources to mitigate, causes unnecessary and costly waste, disrupts the business and poses a meaningful brand risk. We help develop a strategy that suits your goals and a roadmap telling you how to implement it.

With the end-vision of establishing a tailored plan for tracking and tracing items deemed by the FDA to have high food safety risk, we support in establishing your strategy that allows us to create an execution playbook for how to achieve compliance for the designated items in your supply chain.
Traceability Technology
While there is a plethora of tools, resources, and solutions that can be used to enable your traceability journey, our team of experts will identify technology that best suits your goals while keeping your supply chain nuances in consideration.
