    Growth At Risk

    Major buyers will increasingly prioritize suppliers who can demonstrate full traceability. Companies without these capabilities may find themselves excluded from valuable partnerships that could represent significant portions of their business.

    Brand Exposure

    Without track-and-trace systems, it becomes increasingly difficult to prove product authenticity and protect the reputation you’ve worked so hard to establish. Every counterfeit product in the market potentially affects how customers perceive your brand.

    Competitive Gap

    As industry leaders implement serialization solutions, there’s a risk of falling behind competitors who gain first-mover advantages in the regulated environment.

    Fast-Evolving Regulatory Landscape

    Regulations change, often quickly. By preparing early, teams stay ready for new or modified requirements, enter new markets more easily, and avoid costly last-minute scrambles or poorly integrated fixes.

For over 35 years, OPTEL has partnered with agrochemical leaders worldwide to turn regulatory change into operational advantage.

Flexible Solution to Meet Your Specific Needs

Every company is in a different situation. Choose the plan that fits your reality today – then scale as you grow.

  1. Getting Started Plan

    Perfect for companies exploring track-and-trace

    This plan works particularly well for companies with small operations (1–3 lines) or running pilot programs, and businesses that want to understand track-and-trace benefits before making larger investments. It can be used to secure new contracts while building internal expertise and confidence.

  2. Growth-Focused Plan

    Designed for companies ready to optimize their operations

    This is ideal for mid-sized manufacturers who want to streamline operations while meeting compliance requirements. Companies using this approach often discover additional benefits beyond compliance, including better inventory management and improved production tracking.

  3. Enterprise Excellence Plan

    Built for high-volume operations with demanding requirements

    This plan works best for large-scale operations where speed and accuracy directly impact competitiveness, and where the investment can be justified through access to high-value contracts or operational improvements.
