In this paper an approach for information system design for tracking and tracing is proposed. The paper presents Gozinto graph modelling for tracking and tracing of the goods flow. A Gozinto graph represents a graphical listing of raw materials, parts, intermediates and subassemblies, which a process transforms into a particular end product, through a sequence of operations. Materials listed in a Gozinto graph for tracking and tracing represent production and/or purchase lots or batches. The composition of a certain end product is then represented through modelling all its constituent materials along with their intermediate relations. By registering all the relations between sub-ordinate and super-ordinate material lots, a method of tracking the composition of the end product is obtained. When the entire sequence of operations required for manufacturing an end product adheres to this registering of relations, a multilevel bill of lots can be compiled. That bill of lots then provides the necessary information to (i) determine the composition of a material item out of component items, and (ii) recall any items having consumed a certain component of specific interest (e.g. deficient).
