SPC for Food Safety - get the job done right!

From ground beef to spinach, the food industry has seen the huge downside of supply chain safety and quality failures: Northwest Analytical offer clips from the TV show on Food Safety

One proven way to reduce safety risks is to use SPC (statistical process control) to improve supply chain performance.

Since 2003, the USDA National School Lunch Programme ground beef purchasing has demonstrated the success of SPC-based supply chain management.

The programme has improved both quality and safety to show the way to get the food safety job done right.

The programme, "Improving Food Safety in the Food Supply Chain" from the Feast or Famine TV series, includes the people who made it happen - including Barry Carpenter, Executive Director, National Meat Association, Dr Kenneth Clayton, Associate Administrator, USDA Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), and Steve Olson, Livestock and Meat Marketing Specialist, USDA AMS.

The programme was filmed on location at the Cherry Meat Packers in Chicago.

Northwest Analytical participated in the production and offers clips from the programme and a free 'Building a Better Burger' DVD on their website.
