Every torque event. Every part. Every car. Traceable.
TRACIO delivers IATF 16949-grade traceability programmes for Tier-1 suppliers and OEMs. Build genealogy from sub-assembly to finished-goods yard, JIS / JIT verified, integrated with SAP S/4HANA and yard-management platforms.
What we keep seeing in Automotive programmes.
Sub-assembly traceability gap
Sub-assembly logs in spreadsheets, paper, or systems that don't talk to the line MES. Recall scope grows because you can't bound it.
Torque events untied to part
The torque tool fired. Was it tied to part 78421-A or 78421-B? Without RTLS-grade location, the genealogy has a gap.
Finished-goods yard chaos
Hundreds of cars on the yard. Dispatch knows which VIN should be on which truck — but not where the car is right now.
The use cases that consistently pay back.
IATF 16949 build genealogy
RAIN RFID + UWB at cells with sub-cm accuracy where it matters. Every torque event tied to a specific part by location, not by approximation.
Just-In-Sequence verification
JIS sequence breaks detected in real time, before they stop the line.
Finished-goods yard
BLE on every VIN, anchors across the compound. Dispatch sees position live, picks routes optimally.
EV battery genealogy
Cell-level tracking for EV battery assembly with the audit trail regulators are starting to expect.
Tool calibration
UWB-tagged calibration assets, programme-managed against ISO 17025.
Dealer inventory
Item-level visibility from finished-goods yard through outbound logistics to dealer arrival.

Traceability on a battery line is non-negotiable. Combining UWB torque-tool control with RAIN RFID cell genealogy lifted first-pass yield by 6.1% and we cleared two audit cycles with zero findings. The reason it worked was that the pilot ran on a live line at full takt — TRACIO refused to prove it on a quiet shift.Manufacturing Engineering Lead · EV battery-cell manufacturer · EMEAAnonymised at the client’s request.

Automotive — where the payback shows up.
Just-in-sequence (JIS) WIP
Sequence integrity for body-in-white and trim lines; mis-builds and line stoppages fall, integrated to the MES.
Torque-tool & quality genealogy
Binding every torque event to the VIN gives audit-grade quality records and dramatically narrows recall scope.
Finished-vehicle yard management
GPS and RFID locate finished vehicles in compound yards — find-time and demurrage charges drop sharply.
