One digital record for every piece, from production to final installed position.

Agile is a project delivery method based on short cycles of defining, configuring, testing, evaluating, and improving. For this platform, it allows ITISA and 33Visual to validate the Workflow step by step before scaling.

MVP means Minimum Viable Product. It is the first usable version of the platform, designed to test the core Workflow, validate assumptions, and gather feedback before expanding into more advanced functionality.

The Digital Birth Certificate, or DBC, is the central record for each piece. It acts as the “birth certificate” of the piece, connecting production, QA/QC, material, patio, dispatch, site receiving, installation, and final position information.

The digital record is the central profile of a prefabricated or prestressed concrete piece. It can include piece ID, production data, QA/QC status, material links, location, dispatch information, installation status, and supporting documents.

A QR code is the visual code attached to or associated with a piece. Scanning the QR code allows authorized users to consult or update the piece record, access the Digital Birth Certificate, and create traceability events.

QR-based traceability means using QR scans as practical access points to consult, update, and document the digital record of each piece throughout the Workflow.

The Digital Thread is the connected history of a piece from material intake through production, QA/QC, patio, dispatch, site receiving, mounting / installation, and final as-built position.

The visibility layer is the consultation and visualization layer created by the platform. It does not replace SAP, ERP, or other source systems. It helps leadership and operations see critical information faster.

The Dashboard is a visual view of key operational information, including production status, QA/QC release, patio location, dispatch, site receiving, installation, and exceptions requiring attention.

Patio refers to the production or storage yard where pieces are located before dispatch. Yard mapping can include zones, bays, rows, racks, loading areas, hold areas, and ready-for-dispatch areas.

Yard location refers to the current physical position of a piece inside the production or storage yard. It helps teams find, move, inspect, and dispatch pieces more efficiently.

A yard scan is performed by authorized personnel to confirm or update a piece’s location, movement, status, readiness, or exception inside the patio.

QA/QC refers to quality assurance and quality control. In the platform, this confirms whether a piece is released, on hold, rejected, or requires additional inspection before moving to the next Workflow step.

Dispatch is the Workflow stage where a piece is confirmed for loading, shipment, and release to the construction site. It may include truck, shipment, operator, timestamp, and delivery documentation.

Site receiving confirms that the piece arrived at the construction site. The record can include receiving user, timestamp, condition, shipment reference, and staging location.

The staging area is the temporary site location where a piece is placed before mounting or installation. It helps control logistics between delivery and final placement.

Mounting / installation is the construction stage where the piece is placed in its final position. This stage can include installer, timestamp, axis, level, zone, photo evidence, and approval notes.

As-built position refers to the final installed location of the piece after mounting or installation. It can include zone, axis, level, approved drawing reference, photo evidence, BIM reference, and notes.

DRO stands for Director Responsable de Obra, the authorized construction professional responsible for validating that a project complies with applicable regulations, permits, technical standards, and approved documentation. In the platform, this term is relevant because installation records, final position conforme a proyecto / as-built, and QA/QC evidence can support DRO and structural supervisor review.

ERP refers to an enterprise system used to manage business and operational data. In this context, ERP or SAP may serve as source systems for piece, material, production, quality, dispatch, or administrative information.

SAP is a business management system that may contain production, material, quality, dispatch, and administrative data. The platform can be designed to consult or connect with SAP where technically and operationally appropriate.

GIS means Geographic Information System. It allows assets, locations, yards, sites, or installed pieces to be represented on a map or spatial interface.

RFID uses electronic tags and readers to identify objects without needing direct line-of-sight scanning. It may be considered as a future enhancement after the QR-based Workflow is validated.

A BIM model is a digital model used for design, engineering, construction, and asset coordination. The platform may link a piece record to its planned or installed position in a BIM model.

Systems integration refers to controlled connections between the ITISA Traceability Platform and systems such as SAP, ERP, QR records, BIM, GIS, or document repositories. Feasibility, security, and scope should be validated during the Discovery Sprint.

SOPs define who scans, when they scan, what data is required, how exceptions are handled, and how inconsistencies are corrected. The platform supports SOP discipline by making checkpoints visible and auditable.
