Recent workforce reductions at the FDA and the subsequent suspension of a quality-control program at its food-testing laboratories have elucidated the need for an efficient contamination tracking of food products. Our aim is to predict food products likely to be recalled using past inspection data and also investigate the link with pathogen related outbreaks.
Our primary company KPIs are as follows:
- Prevention rate of contaminated products reaching consumers
- Cost savings to manufacturers from early warnings and avoided recalls
