Unclear location
A part exists, but no one knows for sure whether it is currently in storage, installed in a machine, or has already been sent for maintenance.
LAKON is software for companies that want to reliably monitor products and their components down to the individual part. From deployment locations and available spare parts to maintenance intervals and the complete history of a single part, LAKON creates transparency across the entire lifecycle of a product and its individual parts.

In technical organizations, information is often lost across multiple teams, locations, or systems. This is exactly where LAKON comes in: with a central, traceable, and structured view of products, installation states, and service life.
A part exists, but no one knows for sure whether it is currently in storage, installed in a machine, or has already been sent for maintenance.
The operating duration of individual parts, components, or products is not documented consistently and therefore becomes a risk.
Inspections, checks, or replacement intervals can easily be overlooked in day-to-day operations – especially when many components are involved.
Nested vehicle or machine structures make it difficult to maintain an overview of installed and missing components.
Without a traceable lifecycle, it remains unclear where a part was previously installed and what stresses or inspections it has already undergone.
When information is passed on manually, misunderstandings arise between workshop, warehouse, service, development, and project management.
The software was originally developed for environments with high demands on reliability and traceability. Today, this principle can be transferred to many industries in which components are installed, removed, stored, inspected, and reused.
Every part can be tracked uniquely – from its storage location to its current installation site in a vehicle, machine, system, or assembly.
History including installation and removal times, service duration, inspections, running times, and previous installation locations.
Structured overview of the current configuration of a product – including installed, missing, or inspection-relevant components.
Reusable templates for vehicles, machines, or technical systems reduce coordination errors and accelerate processes.
Due inspections, service intervals, and safety-critical thresholds remain visible and traceably documented.
Identification, inspection processes, and operational routines for a product can optionally be further digitized and standardized.
Which part is currently installed where
Which parts are in storage, under maintenance, or out of service
How long a component has already been in use
When inspections, maintenance, or replacements become due
Where a part was installed in the past
How complex assemblies are structured in an organized way
LAKON is suitable wherever parts or assemblies need to be documented, located, and monitored throughout their lifecycle.
Management of safety-critical vehicle parts, service life, replacements, and usage histories.
Tracking wear parts, assemblies, and maintenance intervals in vehicle fleets.
Traceability of installed components in machines and systems. Service life analysis of machines at the customer site.
Documentation of heavily used parts by operating hours, service duration, and maintenance status.
Clear overview of spare parts, removals, inspections, and reuse of technical components.
Traceable history of test components, prototype parts, and trial statuses.
Controlled documentation of installed components in devices with maintenance and service requirements.
Location and condition overview for technical parts, modules, and complete assemblies.
Ideal for individual technical systems with high documentation and safety requirements.
LAKON helps companies not only capture information about parts and components, but also make it operationally usable – for safety, efficiency, and predictable processes.
All relevant information on the location, condition, installation site, and history of a part is available centrally.
Critical components are not inadvertently used beyond their permissible service life or continued in operation without a documented inspection.
Teams find the right information faster and reduce queries, manual lists, and error-prone side processes.
Components are used in a more controlled way, maintained more effectively, and assessed better throughout their lifecycle.
Standardized structures and a clear data basis facilitate collaboration between warehouse, workshop, service, development, and management.
The more parts, assemblies, and deployment locations are managed, the more valuable a robust and structured software foundation becomes.
LAKON was originally developed and used in collaboration with //Audi Sport. The slogan at the time was: See where a part is currently installed - how many km it has already been in use - ensure safety and operational readiness - secure victories! Supported by a purpose-built, easy-to-use software solution called LAKON.
Whether in motorsport, mechanical engineering, service organizations, or fleet operations: If you want to know at all times which part is where, how long it has been in use, and when it needs to be inspected, LAKON is the right solution for you!
