What is the Safefood 360° RISK Assessment Tool?

Safefood 360° RISK is a standalone solution that provides entry-level, line-of-sight risk analysis using big data sources to gain an exact measure of risk in the supply chain, scan for potential risk trends, and provide valuable input into the development of local HACCP and PCP plans. It is specifically designed for food safety managers and auditors, bringing world-class risk assessment capabilities directly into the food business – enabling
food safety practitioners to source and use risk data in a comprehensive format.

For more information, please watch our on-demand webinar about RISK.

Why do we need the Safefood 360° RISK Assessment Tool?

Safefood 360° RISK uses internal and external data sets that helps food safety managers to quickly underpin their assessments and decisions with scientific data, developing robust food safety and supply chain programs.

RISK pulls hourly updates from EU RASFF and the World Bank for the most up-to-date data you can then visualise in geographical and global heat maps, in addition to the ability to drill down into the source data. By just utilizing their reports, the information needs to be taken one by one, which can be time-consuming for an individual business operator – subscribing to RISK saves your Food Safety Managers time in daily operations.

RISK also includes data from FDA food alerts in its beta version mode. Request a demo for more details from our technical consultants.

How do we use this data?

Safefood 360° RISK enables food businesses to make better food safety, fraud, governance and sustainability decisions. It contains a wide range of tools and features, including:

– Identifying emerging food safety trends globally based on your products, hazards and material sources.
– Assessing risk associated with your suppliers and products using reliable data sets and analytical methods.
– Rapidly profiling your products, materials, ingredients and suppliers against food safety and governance indicator data.
– Providing tailored business intelligence, analytics, KPI dashboards and automatic reporting to your team for Enterprise users.
