However, it encountered significant challenges in enabling the industry to track their materials at scale without imposing additional burden on stakeholders, due to the diverse and decentralized nature of the textile supply systems.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">To help address this, Textile Exchange partnered with Wavicle to develop a product roadmap and design the architecture for a multiparty application. The application aims to seamlessly integrate data from a variety of track-and-trace systems, provide central access to supply system stakeholders, and give brands the transparency needed to make informed, sustainable decisions about material purchasing.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Challenges in ensuring integrity across multiparty applications<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Textile Exchange aims to provide the industry with the ability to easily and accurately track certified materials, attributes, impact and volumes across the supply chain. The organization intends to achieve this through a traceability framework that interoperates its own traceability system with various digital track-and-trace systems currently used in the industry. While Textile Exchange does not directly manage these digital track-and-trace systems, it saw this collaboration as an opportunity to leverage existing technologies for greater supply chain transparency.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Over the past few years, Textile Exchange has made significant strides in consolidating data from its 30+ certifier systems to track certified materials. However, as the organization aims to scale, it is timely to begin to integrate with online track-and-trace systems for enhanced efficiency.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Textile Exchange engaged Wavicle to help design a plugin that consolidates data across systems to provide a comprehensive view of raw material flow across the supply chains. By integrating Textile Exchange\u2019s current system with existing track-and-trace systems used by the industry, the plugin will enable Textile Exchange to manage the traceability of their certified materials on multiple systems. Additionally, it will give brands visibility into materials that fall outside of Textile Exchange\u2019s standards, supporting them in making informed decisions about their supply system and improving the overall sustainability of their products.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Product roadmap and technical architecture<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Wavicle collaborated closely with Textile Exchange to translate its strategic goals into a product roadmap for a technically sound and scalable solution. The team distilled the core use cases, mapped out technical requirements, and designed the architecture to support the multiparty system. Wavicle designed an interoperable plugin using Microsoft Azure, ensuring seamless integration between Textile Exchange\u2019s existing traceability system and various track-and-trace systems.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The overarching vision for this solution is to credibly and efficiently connect the flow of certified raw material across the fashion, apparel, and textile supply chains. The platform is designed to ease the burden on suppliers through a single interface, leverage existing industry track-and-trace technologies, and maintain the integrity and credibility of Textile Exchange\u2019s standards system using a material ledger as it adapts to the evolving legislative environment.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cA transparent supply chain is essential for advancing sustainability in the fashion, apparel, and textile industry,\u201d says Evonne Tan, Senior Director of Data and Technology at Textile Exchange. \u201cTraceability ensures that every step of the journey is accountable. This project with Wavicle provides Textile Exchange with a blueprint to scale our traceability efforts. By establishing a credible and interoperable framework that integrates seamlessly with existing track-and-trace systems, we can collectively enhance supply chain transparency and consolidate insights across diverse and decentralized networks, empowering the industry to make informed sustainability decisions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wavicle&#8217;s experts
