FSMA Fridays: Traceability Requirements And Best Practices (Part Three Of Four)

On the last Friday of every month, Barbara Levin of SafetyChain, a leading provider of food safety and quality assurance automation and compliance solutions, hosts FSMA Fridays™, the leading online forum for the food and beverage community to learn the latest information about the FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). Featuring Dr. David Acheson, the popular monthly interactive pod/webcast is sponsored by SafetyChain Software and The Acheson Group.

In the second portion of FSMA Fridays: Traceability Requirements And Best Practices, Safety Chain’s Barbara Levin and the Acheson Group’s panel discussed what FSMA requires the FDA to do in terms of traceability, recommended actions for traceability pilot programs, and how to initiate those actions in pilot programs. Here, in part three of the series regarding traceability requirements and best practices, the group will address questions from the pod/webcast’s live audience regarding what companies should do to prepare for upcoming traceability requirements, what companies should do to track direct-contact packaging and how FSMA affects these practices.

Barbara: David, your wisdom is always welcome wherever we can put that in there. Jen, we are going to come back to you for the last pre-submitted question, and then we'll open it up to all of our participants. What should companies do today to prepare? And then, the million dollar question: what do you think the FDA will do next?
