Food and Beverage Industries

In the age of transparency, consumers are more informed than ever about the food they eat and who manufactures and supplies it. The increasingly complex, global food supply chain further complicates food and beverage manufacturing, presenting potential risks.

That’s why the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) developed the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). Implementing FSMA requires a solution such as the MasterControl Product Lifecycle Excellence Platform™ that automates quality and manufacturing processes to ensure compliance.

How Can Food and Beverage Companies Become More Efficient?

Compliance by itself is important, but MasterControl helps you turn compliance into a competitive advantage. Food and beverage companies can use MasterControl to become more efficient by:

  • Search and Retrieval

    Quality management frequently revolves around documentation. However, searching and retrieving what you need from a manual or hybrid system is difficult. With MasterControl you can search and retrieve any document from a centralized cloud-based system immediately.

  • Process Efficiency

    Trying to manually track and perform training, audits, deviations, corrective and preventive action (CAPA) or other quality processes takes time and is prone to error. Automating these processes is considerably faster and greatly reduces human error.

  • Improved Turnaround

    Food and beverage companies lose time and money while trying to implement changes. Manual approval processes take weeks when they could take minutes. Automated routing, approval and implementation cut the costs of implementing change.

Connecting Quality Throughout the Supply Chain

Most food and beverage companies rely on high quality suppliers to help them deliver their products. Legislation also includes additional requirements for documenting and verifying supplier safety and regulatory bodies requires you to document the basis behind your supplier trust. To this end, MasterControl streamlines supplier management to ensure quality and compliance requirements are consistently fulfilled throughout the supply chain along the product lifecycle. It integrates supplier quality management (SQM) and approved vendor lists (AVL) management while automating document control and change control processes like supplier corrective action requests (SCARs) and supplier approval status.
