OriginTrace
Processing & Chain-of-Custody

Every transformation logged. Every gram accounted for.

Processing is where most traceability records break down. OriginTrace maintains chain-of-custody through every transformation — sorting, drying, hulling, grading, and blending — so the pedigree record that reaches your buyer reflects what actually happened.

Controls

Four controls that keep the chain intact.

Mass Balance

Input weight is logged at intake. Output weight is captured at each processing stage. The system flags any discrepancy outside tolerance before the batch moves forward.

Transformation Audit Trail

Every processing step — when it started, who operated it, what went in, what came out — is logged against the batch record. The trail is immutable.

Identity Preservation

Where buyers require identity-preserved product — single-origin, single-variety, certified — OriginTrace maintains strict lot separation through processing.

Contamination Prevention

Processing runs are logged by input lot. If a contamination event is identified downstream, the system can isolate the affected lots and trace them back to source within minutes.

Live Processing View

Your processing operation, visible in real time.

Processing coordinators log runs directly in OriginTrace. Every input lot, processing step, and output batch is visible to the exporter, compliance officer, and logistics coordinator simultaneously.

Finished Goods Pedigree

When processing is complete, OriginTrace generates a finished goods pedigree certificate from the source-to-output record. It carries the GPS-verified origin of every contributing lot, the processing steps applied, the mass balance summary, and the QR link for buyer verification. No manual assembly.

Processing Traceability

Chain-of-custody that survives processing.

Most traceability platforms stop at the farm gate. OriginTrace follows the product through every transformation — so the pedigree record that reaches your buyer is as strong as the origin evidence you started with.
