Abstract: The aim of this special issue is to provide a collection of works which deal with the problematics of integrating traceability for strategic policy decision support. The focus is to provide a perspective on traceability across a range of different sectors of activity. Therefore, one of the challenges of this special issue was to address several original papers on the theme of traceability in various sectors. The result is a success! This special issue proposes a collection of four papers: two concern the food sector and the two others are related to the sectors of forestry and blood transfusions. The papers presented also give original methodological insight by answering questions such as: What key factors must a firm take into account to ensure the successful implementation of traceability? What computer and human systems does traceability involve? They also propose novel results and make important contributions to the subject. Finally, these contributions are international and the field studies concern different countries around the world. Experiments were performed in Tunisia (the date sector), Indonesia (mangoes) and Vietnam (seafood) for the food sector, and in France for the forest sector, and the European blood transfusion centre.
