FSMA 204: Preparing for Tech-Enabled Traceability

In September 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released the much-anticipated Food Safety Modernization Act proposed traceability rule. The 50-page document indicates aggressive new timelines are right around the corner for adopting traceability recordkeeping requirements. Join FoodLogiQ Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer Katy Jones and VP of Supply Chain Strategy and Insights Julie McGill for a live webinar covering the most significant points within the rule proposal as well as how you can develop advanced traceability programs within the rule’s proposed timeline of 2 years.

Get familiar with proposed compliance dates and requirements for critical tracking events (CTEs) and key data elements (KDEs). The session will also cover key commentary made during the FDA public meetings in addition to how you can get started with tech-enabled traceability program management using FoodLogiQ’s Track + Trace product.

Join the session to understand:

• An overview of FDA’s recently proposed traceability rule.
• The proposed compliance dates as well as the CTEs and KDEs you will need to capture, store, and share.
• How major brands have built an advanced traceability program.
• How to get started with tech-enabled traceability and prepare for the proposed recordkeeping requirements.
