Traceability & trace pack
Traceability is the documented history of a part from manufacture through every owner, repair and release event.
A trace pack typically includes the release certificate, previous ownership, teardown or removal records and, for serialised units, the maintenance history that supports its stated condition.
Buyers assess trace quality alongside condition. Gaps in history reduce the pool of acceptable customers and, in some cases, make a part unsellable to airlines entirely.
Trace quality is a price driver as real as condition or lead time, and it should be visible at the moment of quoting, not discovered at shipping.
