FDA FSMA Food Traceability System Requirements

This 90-minute webinar will cover the final FDA traceability requirements and techniques useful in the event of quality deviation investigations and potential FDA Recalls.

A variety of technologies at various price levels that are used for tracking and recall will also be covered to set the food industry stage for a more solid entry into artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IOT)

An DA FSMA compliant integrated food safety system model that uses traceability, food safety and recall data will be presented to demonstrate how computer technology can be used to reduce the time to recall products and reduce the impact to human health.
We will discuss this mega-trend setter that has been creeping up for the past several years.
Specific data collection forms and required FDA spread sheet samples will be covered.

Background;-

The FDA has not died nor gone to sleep and has a future looking set of traceability rules after avoiding the issue for a couple of decades. While the rules are published, the FDA continues to ignore many critical issues covered in this webinar including temperature controls, recall and the many key data elements available to your company.

Why Should You Attend?

This is a game changer that shows where the FDA is going with regard to a more comprehensive  electronic style of supply chain traceability system positioned to more comprehensively bring massive amounts of food safety data into a more future looking integrated food safety system.
While implementation deadlines have been pushed out, confusion reigns and you will still be required to implement your required solution.

Do NOT delay developing your traceability system!

This session will cover the proposed rules including the purpose, who is covered, who is exempt, recordkeeping requirements, core rule components, key data elements (KDEs), costs and public health benefits, records to be kept, and, most importantly, a Fook Traceability List covering the produce, fruit, and fish and other listed products

Specific data collection and record keeping examples ans forms will be discussed.
More importantly we will discuss many options available in your efforts to control temperature and sanitation as Key Data Elements.
