module enables food companies to capture, link, and retrieve lot-level traceability records required under FDA's Food Traceability Rule and produce records in response to an FDA request within the required 24-hour timeframe.
The appropriations bill for FY 2026 prohibits FDA from using federal funds to implement FSMA 204 before the delayed July 2028 compliance date.

The agency has released a discussion paper offering context and questions about the lot-level tracking requirements of the Food Traceability Rule to help shape engagements with industry, including a virtual public meeting in June.
The update to the all-in-one food safety, quality, traceability, and compliance platform is designed to strengthen how food companies prepare for audits, verify traceability systems, and respond to potential recall events.
