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

An 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 on human health. The model is based on the FDA FSMA concept for risk reduction and uses predictive modeling to point investigators in the right direction in the minimum time.

Areas Covered in the Session:-

• Blockchain
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Self-reporting, Trade and Consumer and Classes of Recalls
• FSMA expanded authority to stop and seize
• Product and Process Vicarious Liability
• Traceability standards, controls, and practices
• Overlooked transportation issues
• ISO 22005 traceability standards
• Current trends and common issues.
• Lot Identification at the case, pallet and container levels
• Recall Classifications

Why should you attend this webinar?

The documentation review authority for the FDA has increased with the passage of FSMA. Enforcement has begun to expand as well. Not only does the FDA now have the authority to mandate product recalls, but the records and information they may request to see have also increased as well. Allergen mislabeling microbiological and foreign material contamination are the leading causes of Class I recalls. Additional funding is expected to allow even greater sampling and inspection of products and facilities in the New Year. More and more alerts are being issued at the risk of brand confidence. It is often a slow recovery for customer sales following a product recall, not to mention the cost of communication, product return, and disposal.

You can make the difference between gaining and losing customers. Developing quality systems that result in good traceability can lessen the impact of a market withdrawal or even recall. It starts with the management team and must include the operators. From lot identification throughout the supply chain, to effectively reviewed recovery exercises, your team must have comprehensive systems and be ready to quickly execute your plan in the event of an incident.
