Transforming Batch Mapping & Procurement Efficiency with TraceX’s Dynamic QR (DQR) Solution
For businesses relying on third-party suppliers, ensuring traceability at the bale levelis a major challenge. Without a digital procurement system, companies face: Inconsistent tracking of procured bales, leading to inventory mismatches, risk ofmislabelling & duplication, making audits and compliance verification difficult, lack ofreal-time visibility into supplier-sourced materials, increasing supply chain risks.
By implementing TraceX’s Dynamic QR (DQR) solution, the company automated its batch tracking system, optimized procurement workflows, and improved overall operational efficiency—achieving remarkable results in time savings, accuracy, and supply chain visibility. With DQR-based traceability, each bale gets a unique QRcode, ensuring real-time tracking, authentication, and compliance from supplier to final use.
VST Industries Ltd aims to implement Traceability throughout their organization, from sowing/plantation to tobacco leaf export. They seek to manage their farmers, farmlands, field technicians, and tobacco procurement comprehensively. Currently, they utilize Grower Management System & Farmer Procurement System, which they intend to replace with TraceX’s solution. This application will serve as both a farmer management system and procurement & processing system for tobacco, establishing a unified source of truth for their produce.

Challenge
Labor-Intensive Batch Tagging Process
Assigning batch tags manually was time-consuming and prone to human errors.
Operators had to individually label, track, and enter data, leading to delays and inefficiencies in procurement operations.
Lack of Real-Time Tracking & Inventory Visibility
The company struggled with delayed procurement updates, making it difficult to track batch status in real time.
Without instant visibility, warehouse teams faced inventory mismatches and inefficiencies in demand planning.
High Error Rate in Procurement Data
Manual data entry errors led to mislabeled batches, impacting quality control and traceability compliance.
Supply chain disruptions occurred due to inaccurate procurement records, affecting export shipments and regulatory compliance.
Limited Integration Between Procurement & Digital Systems
Existing procurement processes relied on manual record-keeping, making it difficult to integrate with digital traceability systems.
The company needed a seamless mobile-enabled solution to enable real-time procurement tracking.
Solution
To address these challenges, the company deployed TraceX’s Dynamic QR (DQR) solution, which provided:
Efficient Batch Mapping for Automated Traceability
Blank QR codes were pre-assigned to batches at the initial stage, allowing for future mapping and easy tracking.
