The aim of the project has been to integrate food safety and traceability by finding common features within food safety and traceability that can benefit each other. To integrate, in a constructive way, food safety and traceability in the management systems that are used in the food sector. To try to document the achieved synergetic effect by integrating food safety and traceability in the management systems. Networking and dissemination activities and liaison to other projects have also been important aims in the project. The main results of the project The project group has worked on a food safety oriented traceability analysis method. This work is in the progress of being published as a scientific publication. Several tests have been made on RFIDtags and international workshops on data capture technology have been arranged. A traceability software solution for generating data on pelagic fishing vessels has been made. A guideline “Recommendations for Good Traceability Practice (GTP)” has been developed. A food safety oriented preparedness test has been conducted in the Nordic countries and reported. The conclusion is that the Nordic industry in general is not prepared for a recall. The study has been submitted for publication in Food Control. The QIM (Quality Index Method) has been verified by three studies of salmon from Norway to Denmark. The conclusion is that QIM is verified as a very important tool to settle quality-related discussions in a chain by objective means. The SSSP (Seafood Spoilage and Safety Predictor) program has been tested by three series of temperature measurements in the whole chain from fishing vessel to retailer shop. The program is very suitable to validate the product information on freshness provided by a traceability system when a temperature record is available. More than 70 IFSAT-related conference/seminar/meetings and presentations have been held during the project period. More than 15 EU projects have been contacted, and several Nordic and EU projects have been generated as a direct result of the IFSAT collaboration.
