TraceLink announced significant new platform enhancements with its Orchestration Platform for Universal Solutions (OPUS), designed to empower supply chain, finance, commercial, and IT leaders to prepare for an agentic-first future.
“Our mission is to build the digital foundation for the intelligent and agentic supply chains of the future,” says Shabbir Dahod, president and CEO of TraceLink. “These OPUS platform enhancements, developed in close collaboration with hundreds of our customers, are a massive step forward. We are delivering the orchestration tools our customers need to win today, while simultaneously laying the groundwork for agentic AI to intelligently sense, respond, and adapt to supply chain dynamics in real time. This is how true productivity, agility, and next-level performance will be achieved.”
Key takeaways:
· The platform and product releases—spanning OPUS, Multi-enterprise Information Network Tower (MINT), Process Orchestration for Empowered Teams (POET), and Serialized Product Intelligence (SPI)—each play a distinct role in enabling transformation:
OPUS: Enables the design, deployment, and scaling of orchestration solutions across the supply chain, driving process consistency and automation.
MINT: Links partners and automates multi-enterprise supply chain transactions, eliminating silos and improving real-time collaboration.
POET: Empowers cross-functional teams to execute shared workflows with greater speed, visibility, and accountability.
SPI: Ensures data accuracy and real-time visibility into serialized product events, reducing compliance risk and improving inventory decisions.
● OPUS Link Lab is an innovation lab and testing environment for no-code solutions built on OPUS that dramatically accelerates time-to-value for solution partners solving unique business process challenges—simulate multi-enterprise workflows, test data flows across partner networks, validate orchestration logic in a secure design environment, and add new orchestration solutions to the OPUS Marketplace catalog for use by customers and their trading partners.
● MINT now orchestrates a wider range of critical transaction types across the value chain such as commerce (new capabilities for chargeback reconciliation to reduce revenue leakage and enhanced collaboration on demand forecasts to improve product availability); external manufacturing (deeper integration with contract partners through new transactions for planned orders, process orders, and batch closure, improving production visibility and control); and logistics and transportation (new transactions for logistics planning and transportation status, including article master data, carrier shipment status, routing, and carrier information to streamline and track shipments with partners).
● Addition of over 20 pre-defined reports and dashboards provide immediate, actionable intelligence across order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, and inventory management processes.
● The solution also offers new capabilities to download exchanged files via UI and exchange transactions as email attachments improve agility for customers and trading partners participating in orchestration networks.
● POET for DSCSA Compliance Exceptions is said to be the industry’s only solution for structured, automated, and collaborative resolution of DSCSA exceptions among teams distributed across different enterprises.
● Serialized Product Intelligence (SPI) provides enhanced inventory reconciliation and increased real-time inventory visibility.
