Sparta Systems To Present Food Safety Compliance Solutions At The Food Safety & Security Summit, March 6-8, 2007 In Washington DC
Holmdel, NJ - February 26, 2007 – Sparta Systems, Inc. (Sparta), the maker of TrackWise®, and the leader in enterprise quality and compliance process management solutions, will be presenting its food safety and quality compliance solutions at this year's Ninth Annual Food Safety Summit®, being held March 6 - 8, 2007 at the Washington, DC Convention Center.
KR Karu, Director of Sales, Sparta Systems, Inc. will be this year's Quality Assurance Track presenter. His session, "New Paradigms for High Performance Quality Management," will focus on how food and beverage manufacturers can improve quality, regulatory compliance, trend detection, time-to-market pressures and complex production processes by implementing an integrated, electronic quality management system (QMS).
Sparta's TrackWise software enables food organizations to improve quality and reduce costs by centralizing and integrating all quality processes, including management of HACCP processes, consumer complaints, supplier quality, internal and external audits, change control, corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), preventive maintenance and calibration, training management, document management and others. TrackWise has been the leading quality management system solution for FDA-regulated life science industries for over a decade.
"Current legislation continues to bring us closer to the establishment of a central agency that will oversee the standardization of US food safety," explained Karu. "Automating and tracking the management of GMPs, FDA, USDA, ISO 22000, ISO 14001 and other industry quality standards with an electronic system will help companies visualize, monitor and mitigate risk faster, and as a result, increase product safety, protect brand image and market share, improve control, and ultimately, reduce costs. Companies that take a proactive step in this direction will be best prepared to respond to both federal and organizational oversight."
This year's Summit keynote speakers include Dr. Robert Brackett, Director of the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), FDA and Susan Forsell, Vice President of Quality Systems, Supply Chain Management, McDonald's USA.
