To survive and prosper in today's economy, leading manufacturers must assemble high quality products at the lowest possible cost. The total cost of production must take into account the complete product lifecycle including warranty, recalls, and repairs. Track, Trace, and Control (TTC) systems are an essential element of success in achieving these strategic objectives.
First, a TTC system provides real-time visibility of all work-in-progress (WIP) and materials on the factory floor. Second, a TTC system eliminates the risk of human errors associated with material handling and equipment setup. Finally, a TTC system provides a complete history of the product lifecycle to enable precise troubleshooting and to minimize the number of products that need to be returned if a recall occurs.
