Kædespecifikke

Kædespecifikke is a Danish adjective meaning chain-specific. It is used to describe characteristics, requirements, data, or processes that pertain to a particular chain, whether a physical supply chain, a sequence of steps in a workflow, or another linked system. The term combines kæde, meaning “chain,” with specifikke, the plural form of specific, and functions as an attributive descriptor in Danish syntax.

In practice, kædespecifikke is employed to distinguish elements that apply only within one defined chain from more general or cross-chain concepts. For example, kædespecifikke krav refer to requirements that are unique to a single supply chain or value chain, while kædespecifikke data denote information that is relevant only for that specific chain. The phrase is commonly found in Danish-language business, logistics, manufacturing, and IT discourse, where practitioners need to specify chain-bound constraints, procedures, or datasets.

The term is primarily used within Danish contexts and may be unfamiliar to non-Danish speakers. When translating, it is often rendered as “chain-specific” or “specific to the chain,” depending on the surrounding discourse. As a technical descriptor, kædespecifikke helps clarify when distinctions between a particular chain and other chains are important for analysis, planning, or contract terms.
