Case Study: SNIG advances cattle traceability and opens access to demanding beef markets with GeneXus Consulting

SNIG - Customer Case Study

SNIG needed a way to identify and register cattle in a market where buyers increasingly demanded full information about origin and handling. The National Cattle Information System was created by GeneXus Consulting in combination with ICA and SONDA to provide individual traceability for all heads of cattle in Uruguay.

GeneXus Consulting’s system records the life history of each animal from birth to slaughtering plant, along with ownership, location, health conditions, and georeferenced data from paper forms. The solution has records for 11,750,000 heads of live cattle and has helped maintain demanding export markets, open new ones, and support the country’s reputation for safe, traceable beef.
