A high level of transparency across the supplier network enables faster intervention based on a recorded event in the supply chain. This saves costs by seamlessly tracking parts and creates trust through clearly defined and secure data access by the companies and persons involved in the process.
- Trace-X
Trace-X empowers all companies from SMEs to large OEMs to participate in parts traceability with an Open-Source solution.
The Open-Source Traceability application is developed within the Catena-X project and enables all companies to participate in Parts Traceability. Trace-X offers capabilities to ingest data for serialized parts and batches as well as their child components. Within CX, we strive to establish a standardized, data-sovereign and interoperable exchange of traceability data along the value creation chain.
The application gives an overview of the supplier network and the supply chain. A high level of transparency across the supplier network enables faster intervention based on recorded events in the supply chain. Additionally, automated massages regarding Quality related incidents and a tool for inspecting the supply chain helps companies in these fast-moving times.
All this saves' costs by seamlessly tracking parts as well as creates trust through clearly defined and secure data access by the companies and persons involved in the process.
Trace-X as the Open-Source solution for Parts Traceability offers the following functionalities:
- List and view manufactured parts based on BoM AsBuild
- List and view planned parts based on BoM AsPlanned
- Filter and Search functionality on part views
- Show detailed information on manufactured parts ** Asset Administration Shell description ** Submodel description such as SerialPartTypization, AssemblyPartRelationship, Batch
- List and view Supplier parts based on BoM As Build ** List of Supplier parts based on AssemblyPartRelationship Aspect
- View parts and parts relations in parts tree
- Send and receive quality investigations along the supply chain

Here is our Releasing guide.
This application serves as a user entry point to the Catena-X network.
It's written in Typescript based on the Angular framework.
We decided on using Angular because of two important aspects.
Firstly, Angular comes with strict guidelines, which makes it harder to start working on for new developers, but for established developers it is easy to start working with.
Secondly, Angular scales perfectly in the long run. Because of the restricted possibilities and stricted guidelines it is hard to implement multiple solutions for the same problem. e.g. Storing data or routing.
With that in mind it made sense it chose Angular for an open source project.
Source files are exposed statically through the NGINX web server.
"Visualisation of traceability" is one of our most important feature, but once was one of our biggest problems.
We wanted to achieve something that is visually pleasing, is easy to use and performs very good in a browser application.
Our first approach was to use HTML canvas. But it turned out it is hard to perform accurate actions inside a canvas. That is why we decided on using the D3 library.
D3.js is a JavaScript library for manipulating documents based on data. D3 helps you bring data to life using HTML, SVG, and CSS.
Because it uses SVGs, we knew it will perform great. And we are able to have pinpoint accuracy when it comes to user actions.
