As a food processing or manufacturing company, does your facility know exactly from where your ingredients came, and when they were added to final product? If so, could you readily provide that information to the FDA if an inspector asked for it, or if some type of contamination occurred with your ingredients or mixes?
Through compliance tracking software from Matrix Controls, quality assurance personnel need not worry about FDA compliance at their facilities. This is because compliance tracking software takes in, stores, and provides all requisite ingredient information that the FDA requires following the Bioterrorism Act of 2002. Title III of this act mandates that all food processors and handlers have immediately available all source information for their ingredients and mixes. This means that all ingredients and mixes on a plant floor must have source information detailing where they came from, where they currently are in the processing or storage facility or warehouse, and to where they’re going after they leave the facility.
With Compliance Tracking Software, Your Business Reaps Quality Control Benefits
In addition to keeping in line with FDA compliance, food and baking industry companies can realize several additional benefits to compliance tracking software. Most compliance tracking software includes, or offers as an add-on service the ability for exact ingredient measurements to ensure your mix is accurate. Moreover, this quality assurance software means that an army of quality control personnel is no longer necessary on your plant floor, equating to less labor costs.
Another benefit involves the monitoring of machines through add-ons to compliance tracking software. Matrix Controls offers Preventative Maintenance-PM software that keeps regular tabs on machine performance and maintenance schedule to ensure proper functioning rather than having an entire batch thrown away because of a malfunctioning machine.
