Multi-Tier Product Genealogy for Aerospace Subsystems
A Tier-1 aerospace supplier manufactures electromechanical flight-control actuators, integrating precision machining, surface treatment, multi-layer printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs), and structural wire harnesses. Each completed actuator must comply with AS9100 safety and quality standards, requiring 100% verifiable component provenance across all assembly levels.

The challenge
A commercial defense customer requests a complete genealogy audit for a deployed unit (Serial # ACT-2024- 8841) within 24 hours following a flight control specification update.
Quality auditors must pull paper traveler binders, cross-reference disconnected ERP stock movement logs, search SMT component pick logs, and reconcile supplier Certificate of Analysis (CoA) spreadsheets.
Manual paper reconciliation takes 3 to 5 business days per unit, introducing high audit non-conformance risks and engineering distraction.
How Anvaya solves it
Unified Serial Search
Quality engineers type Serial # ACT-2024-8841 into the Anvaya Serial/Lot Search bar to immediately retrieve the master digital unit record.
Multi-Tier Tree Reconstruction
Anvaya automatically queries all linked shop-floor transactions and renders an interactive multi-tier product genealogy tree, mapping top-level actuators down to sub-assemblies, PCBA lot codes, surface treatment batches, and raw material heat numbers.
Digital Audit Trail Mapping
Every operator sign-off, work order transaction, and material movement is linked directly to individual nodes within the digital genealogy tree.
Supplier Origin Verification
The system traces child components directly back to the original vendor lot codes and supplier Certificates of Analysis without needing manual paper lookups.
One-Click Audit Export
Quality engineers generate a comprehensive, tamper-evident digital audit package detailing full product provenance in seconds.
The outcome
- audit response time drops from 4 business days
- 0 secondsaudit response time drops from 4 business days
- compliance with aerospace traceability standards with zero
- 0%compliance with aerospace traceability standards with zero
Audit response time drops from 4 business days to under 90 seconds, satisfying the customer's urgent engineering directive.
100% compliance with aerospace traceability standards with zero missing component links across four nested assembly tiers.
Hundreds of engineering hours previously spent on physical paper binder hunting are saved annually.

Capabilities used
Every accelerator is assembled from the same capability layer, so a workflow you adopt here shares its foundation with the rest of the portfolio.
