Frequently Asked Questions

A digital food safety management system is software, or an app, designed to help food businesses manage their food safety processes more efficiently. It replaces traditional paper-based systems such as ‘Safer Food, Better Business’ with digital tools, allowing for better organisation, monitoring, and reporting of food safety practices to keep you compliant with food safety regulations all year round.

Customers are more informed and concerned about food safety than ever before, and a digital food safety management system like ours can help you meet their expectations, improve your efficiency and protect your business from costly food safety breaches, such as legal action and damage to your reputation.

  • Enhanced Efficiency: By switching from your paperwork diary to a digital food safety system you can save your team hours every week, reduce errors and allow your staff to focus on their daily jobs, knowing that the system will handle the monitoring and record-keeping.
  • Everything in one place: Our system has all your daily checklists in one, easy to find place and has a range of customisable tools that your staff will find love to use. It also allows you to monitor multiple sites at once and receive live alerts to any issues.
  • Better Compliance: Staying compliant with food safety regulations is easier with a Digital Food Safety Management System. Our system is regularly updated to keep track of regulatory changes and updated protocols, helping your business avoid costly fines and penalties.
  • Enhanced Reporting: Our digital FSMS can quickly generate comprehensive reports for your EHO and management, providing a clear overview of your food safety performance and demonstrating compliance with ease.
