Westminster, CO -- (SBWire) -- 12/21/2012 --TraceGains, based in Colorado, creates supplier documents; a management solution which prevents "bad stuff" (out of specification ingredients) from arriving in the first place. Assuring that the correct supplier documents and certifications are on file, (such as allergen statement, kosher, SQF, and BRC) is also important to verify that the finished good food product is compliant with business policies and customer requirements.

Manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler recently contributed a feature article about TraceGains’ Supplier Document Management. The article titled, “Food Quality Achieved Through Supplier Document Management,” published in the current issue of IFSQN (International Food Safety and Quality Network).

According to Cutler, “Heads of manufacturing, operations, procurement, sourcing, and purchasing, care about reducing errors or mistakes. The fewer errors throughout the manufacturing process, the less the manufacturing line gets upset and the more consistent the finished products. In the food industry errors can be avoided by using the right ingredient with the right specifications. Few technology solutions guarantee ingredients are within spec.”
