Cofinity-X and T-Systems open the door to Catena-X for all automotive suppliers

In an era of rapid digital transformation and evolving regulatory landscapes, achieving traceability in manufacturing has never been more critical. The Dräxlmaier Group, an international leader in the automotive sector, recently shared its inspiring journey of implementing traceability solutions using the Catena-X network. Here's how they did it.

To meet the need for standardised sustainability practices, WITTE Automotive has implemented advanced solutions with SAP and can calculate its PCF according to the Catena-X framework.

The benefits of the Catena-X data ecosystem are becoming increasingly clear. Sven Lorenz explains how Volkswagen benefits from various use cases of the Cofinity-X operator platform.

The ONCITE DPS Track & Trace solution from German Edge Cloud (GEC) is now available on the Cofinity-X marketplace, supporting the automotive industry with improved transparency, efficiency and traceability in manufacturing. Recently recertified according to Catena-X standards, ONCITE DPS enables secure data exchange and process digitization, helping companies address supply chain complexity and regulatory requirements. This collaboration with Cofinity-X offers businesses a straightforward way to implement the solution and begin optimizing production and delivery processes without delay.

In this exclusive IAA MOBILITY interview, Thomas Rösch shares how Cofinity-X, as the first operational provider of the Catena-X dataspace, is enabling secure, standardized, and real-time data collaboration across the automotive value chain. He discusses key industry trends like sustainability and digital transformation, the power of cross-company data sharing, and why IAA MOBILITY is the ideal platform to showcase the tangible progress and use cases of Catena-X.

Cofinity-X, an operating company and central joint venture in the automotive industry, and Volkswagen Group Info Services AG (VW GIS AG), the central contact and contractual partner for cross-brand data products from the Volkswagen Group, announce the successful implementation of the Business Partner Data Management (BPDM) use case within the Catena-X network, together with Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche. Catena-X is a network developed for the automotive industry that establishes a standardized, secure, and scalable data ecosystem. It enables comprehensive data exchange across the entire value chain, improving transparency and efficiency while optimizing processes in the automotive sector.

Managing recalls in the automotive industry is often costly and a logistical nightmare. German car manufacturers alone set aside reserves of €1.4 to €1.8 billion per year for such cases. However, thanks to a collaboration between SAP and Catena-X, significant cost savings can be achieved, and the efficiency of recalls can be drastically improved or avoided.

The Catena-X-certified ONCITE DPS solution from German Edge Cloud was implemented in a very short space of time, enabling Koller to achieve transparency about both its production and energy use.

Catena-X is the future of the automotive industry.
