Enhancing TraceLink Experiences: Driving User Engagement and Business Growth through Digital Innovation

TraceLink operates the world’s largest digital supply chain network for the healthcare and life sciences industries. First developed to orchestrate global track-and-trace processes for pharmaceuticals, the market-proven TraceLink formula for supply chain digitalization is now the foundation for building end-to-end digital networks that link products, processes, companies and enterprise systems together to address drug shortages, product recalls, real-time production and inventory visibility, real-time demand intelligence and more. With a single integration to the TraceLink network, organizations and their supply chain partners are seamlessly linked and empowered to exchange multienterprise information, collaborate with partners and unlock valuable collective intelligence that enables leaders to make better business decisions.

TraceLink faced the challenge of transforming its brand perception from a serialization and track-and-trace solution provider to a comprehensive end-to-end supply chain solution provider. The existing website’s complex content structure and navigation made it difficult for visitors to grasp the full range of products, particularly the new solutions, expertise and PaaS offerings, leading to high bounce rates. To address this, TraceLink decided to redesign their website to simplify content publishing, enhance navigation and information architecture and create engaging user experiences. They collaborated with Material to develop a digital front door that would effectively showcase the evolving direction of their brand and amplify its digital impact.

  • From analyzing the challenges to building real-world user experiences, Material employed a staggered, collaborative approach, drawing on a diverse team of brand and content strategists, product designers, UX/UI specialists, developers and copywriters.

  • During the discovery phase, we pinpointed the pain points in the user journey. In the strategy phase, we laid the groundwork for the redesign project, which included detailed site maps, content modeling, Design Language System (DLS) foundations and measurement planning. This approach enabled us to develop the following key elements.

  • Flexible CMS: Leveraged Acquia Cohesion (Site Studio) to create a drag-and-drop interface, empowering the editorial team to effortlessly generate content.

  • Navigation and User Experience: Streamlined navigation with a structured menu featuring three levels (L0, L1, L2), ensuring smooth transitions between pages and reducing bounce rates.

  • Dynamic Design Elements: Introduced hero banner options, allowing TraceLink to easily update visuals to promote targeted content and support campaigns.

  • Enhanced Readability: Chose user-friendly fonts to make information consumption effortless.

  • Immersive Experience: Developed the interactive graph “Explore the TraceLink Network,” showcasing the intricacies of TraceLink’s supply chain network. This intuitive graph allows users to explore how various entities are interconnected within the network, simplifying supply chain orchestration.

Material’s engagement delivered continuous value for TraceLink across multiple areas, resulting in improved conversion rates and enhanced SEO from both content and technical perspectives. 

The revamped design experience effectively conveys the empowerment, agility and trust that the TraceLink network offers, ensuring high-value content is both discoverable and accessible. Clear messaging and strategic content placement help visitors easily understand TraceLink’s promise and potential.

The drag-and-drop interface and reusable components have significantly boosted the productivity of the editorial team, allowing for faster extensibility and providing a consistent omnichannel branding experience across TraceLink’s digital properties.

Enhanced readability, intuitive navigation and interactive elements have led to higher engagement and increased return visits.

With the revamped design and experience, we are proud to have helped TraceLink establish its authority, credibility and reputation as a leader in the industry.
