Food industry solution

Food safety
under digital control

Ingenes Studio QMS for food and beverage manufacturers – HACCP, BRC, IFS Food, allergen management and full batch traceability. One system instead of a stack of spreadsheets.

In food, recall and inspection do not wait

Inability to quickly withdraw a batch, incomplete HACCP documentation and outdated allergen registers are real risks – for consumers and for the business.

System modules

Modules dedicated to food manufacturers

Ingenes Studio QMS covers every critical food safety area – from raw material and allergen management to complaint handling and recall.

HACCP and CCP

Digital HACCP plans, CCP monitoring, measurement recording and automatic alerts on critical limit violations.

Allergen management

Allergen register for raw materials and products, cross-contamination matrix, cleaning procedures and verification.

Traceability and recall

Full forward and backward traceability. Recall procedure with batch recipient list available in less than 4 hours.

Supplier management

Raw material supplier qualification, periodic evaluation, certificates (BRC, IFS, FSSC), complaints and non-conformance history.

Non-conformances and CAPA

Registration of production and raw material non-conformances, root cause analysis, corrective actions with effectiveness verification.

Document management

Instructions, GHP procedures, raw material and product specifications – always the current version, approval workflow and archiving.

Audits and inspections

BRC/IFS/HACCP, internal and supplier audit planning. Checklists, findings and tracking of post-audit actions.

Training and food safety culture

Training plans, acknowledgements, test results – documentation required by BRC and IFS for food safety culture.

Recall in 4 hours? That's the BRC standard – and ours

Traceability & recall

Recall in 4 hours? That's the BRC standard – and ours

BRC auditors test batch withdrawal time during the audit. Without digital traceability, you cannot pass this test.

Forward and backward traceability — From finished product batch number to raw material and supplier in one step. And in reverse – from supplier to all products made from a given batch.
Recipient list in seconds — For each batch the system generates a list of customers and deliveries with dates and quantities. Ready for recall action without browsing the ERP system.
Step-by-step recall procedure — The Recall module guides you through the entire process: authority notification, customer contact, returns register and final report.

Allergen management

Allergens – one mistake can cost everything

Incorrect allergen management is a health risk for consumers and a reputational risk for the producer. The system gives full control.

Raw material allergen register — Every raw material has an allergen declaration assigned. A supplier change automatically triggers allergen verification for products.
Cross-contamination matrix — A visual matrix shows the cross-contamination risk for each line and product. The foundation for cleaning and segregation procedures.
Verification before production changeover — Before starting a new run the system checks that allergen cleaning procedures have been performed and confirmed.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to questions from quality managers at food and beverage plants.

Does the system handle both BRC and IFS Food simultaneously?

Yes. The system modules cover the requirements of BRC Issue 9 and IFS Food v8. You can run one integrated quality system covering both standards without duplicating documentation.

How does the system support BRC-required recall tests?

The traceability module enables a full recall test in less than 4 hours. Test results are automatically documented – ready as evidence for the BRC auditor.

Is it possible to record CCP monitoring results (temperature, pH) from devices?

Yes. The system can automatically receive data from sensors and SCADA systems via API. Manual entry of results with automatic critical limit verification is also supported.

How does the system handle seasonality and high staff turnover?

The training module enables quick assignment of induction training for new employees with acknowledgement. The manager can see in real time who is trained and who is not.

Does the system integrate with ERP or WMS?

We have ready-made integrations with popular ERP and WMS systems. Batch, raw material, recipe and shipment data can be synchronized, eliminating double entry.

How does supplier documentation required by BRC clause 3.5 work?

The Suppliers module manages qualification, risk assessment, certificates and non-conformance history for each supplier. The BRC auditor can verify completeness of supplier documentation in one view.
