By: TR Cutler TraceGains, Inc. recently hosted a webinar on the topic of labeling with Elizabeth Johnson of the advisory firm Food Directions. The webinar presentation focused on three themes including the food labeling landscape, FDA agenda, and Industry Initiatives. Food labeling is a salient topic in the food industry. An array of important topics were discussed such as gluten-free and the menu labeling. The FDA has proposed a rule for consistent labeling for gluten-free products expected out in the next couple of months. The Affordability Act requires labeling on all restaurants and vending products expected out by the end of the year.

By automatically analyzing and scorecarding supplier-provided documentation as it is received—such as certificates of analysis, qualification questionnaires, audit documents and their results, certifications (Kosher, Organic, etc.), insurance certificates, allergen questionnaires, and other import requirements (COOL, C-TPAT, FSMA, GFSI), among others—TraceGains helps food and nutraceutical manufacturers and ingredient processors automate document management, meet regulatory and industry compliance requirements, identify best and worst suppliers, source better with less risk, automatically raise product quality, and painlessly perform or participate in audits, all without needing to involve the IT department to help with complex technology. Some of the food industry categories which have observed significant benefits using TraceGains include baking mixes, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, snack foods, confectionery, dairy, salad dressings, herbs & seasonings, flavors, dips, glazes & marinades, cheese processing and manufacturing, frozen foods, breakfast cereals, dietary supplements, Meals Ready to Eat (MREs), convenience foods, and restaurant chains. TraceGains customers experience on average a 56% reduction in out-of-spec lot receipts, and a 20% reduction in attribute variability, resulting in enhanced continuous improvement, better performing ingredient and raw material inventory, improved cash flow, and long-term brand protection.
