Overview

 

With AIAG as your North America hub, Catena-X is not just a technology—it’s a movement. 


The automotive industry is entering a new era where digital collaboration is no longer optional—it’s essential. Catena-X is the first open, secure, and standardized data ecosystem purpose-built for the entire automotive value chain. It represents a fundamental shift from fragmented, manual, and one-to-one data exchanges to a unified, future-ready network where every participant—OEMs, suppliers of all tiers, and service providers—can seamlessly and securely share information.

What makes Catena-X game changing?

 

  • One Connected Network: Catena-X brings together companies of all sizes onto a single, interoperable platform. No more silos, no more custom integrations—just one secure environment where everyone speaks the same “data language.”
  • Data Sovereignty and Security: Unlike traditional systems, Catena-X gives you full control over your data. You decide what to share, with whom, and when. Permission-based, encrypted exchanges ensure sensitive information is always protected.

  • Standardization at Scale: Catena-X uses globally recognized standards, making it easy to connect, comply, and collaborate across borders and technologies.

  • Real-World Impact: From product carbon footprint tracking and end-to-end traceability to collaborative quality management and battery passporting, Catena-X unlocks new value, accelerates innovation, and helps you meet fast-evolving regulatory and market demands.

  • Enables Future-Ready with AI: Catena-X gives you secure, real-time data you can trust—ready to use with your company’s own AI and analytics tools. Turn information into predictive insight to anticipate risks, prevent problems, and dramatically drive quality and efficiency across your operations.
