What does RES stand for?
RES stands for Remanufacturing Execution System.
It manages the day-to-day work of restoring used products to their required performance standard. Your team can see what needs doing, follow the right instructions and record the work completed at each stage.
From return to release
Receive and identify
Register the incoming product, its serial number, customer and reason for return. Give each unit a record that follows it through the operation.
Assess and plan
Inspect its condition, diagnose faults and decide the right route: remanufacture, repair, recover usable parts or recycle.
Disassemble and clean
Guide the team through taking the product apart and cleaning its components, recording findings along the way.
Inspect and recover parts
Check which components can be reused, which need work and which must be replaced. Connect recovered parts to your spares inventory.
Recovered components can also return to your spares inventory, with their source, condition and test results recorded.
Repair and rebuild
Create work orders, assign tasks and follow work instructions. Record repairs, replacement parts and the components used in reassembly.
Test and approve
Capture test results against your acceptance criteria. Route failures back for further work and record approval before release.
Release and dispatch
Complete final checks, prepare labels and documents, and record dispatch. Keep the finished product connected to its remanufacturing history.
Finished products can return to the customer, go into stock or join a repair-to-pool service—a shared stock of tested products ready for replacement.
Different products and conditions can follow different routes. Blocworx lets you configure the checks, approval points and rework steps your operation needs. Blocworx’s no-code platform lets us configure the workflows, forms and checks around your remanufacturing process.
One system for the wider operation
Your RES can bring the surrounding processes together:
These can form part of one Blocworx RES, keeping the information connected from the first return request through to final dispatch.
See what is waiting, what is in progress and what is holding a job up. Maintain traceability—a clear record of what happened to each product and the parts used.
Create a Digital Product Passport from your product records
The information captured during remanufacturing can help build a Digital Product Passport (DPP).
Blocworx can bring together product identity, component changes, supporting material information and test results to create or update the passport. Share the appropriate information while keeping internal records restricted.
Where required for remanufactured batteries, this includes creating a new battery passport linked to the original. Blocworx also provides independent DPP backup.
Let’s connect your remanufacturing operation
From take-back and returns to rebuilding, testing and product passports, shape one system around your process.
