Food Safety
how to
ensure compliance

SageData is based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

In any food preparation operation safety is key. The requirement is not only to ensure compliance with Food Safety Regulations, but also to be able to provide proof of compliance. The BassetPro System from SDS provides a tool that enables the required data to be collected easily, quickly and accurately.

Overview

Intelligence is key to the success of any project or operation. In this sense, intelligence means knowledge - knowing what you have, what is happening, and what issues require attention. BassetPro delivers information that enables critical decisions to be made, and as such, it is a key tool for managers at all levels.

The delivery of information that is timely and accurate requires three steps: collection, analysis and presentation. SageData products are built around automatic identification, with mobile units used to ensure that data collection is easy, fast, accurate and complete. This enables high levels of data integrity. A user can rely on the accuracy and timeliness of the reports from this system.

What does BassetPro do?

These systems can be used in any material management situation. They are used to track fixed assets, manage warehouse operations, perform inspections and control dangerous materials.

The food variant is used for tracking ingredients from receipt to the plate. A barcoded, NFC or RFID tag is used to positively identify ingredients. Mobile Units track the transfer of items through the prep, cooking, storage and delivery operations. Any recalls can be handled quickly and efficiently.
More to the point, routine operations can be monitored easily, and any issues corrected quickly.
