How Food Trace works

From audit schedule to closed corrective action all in one place

Food Trace manages the full supplier audit lifecycle scheduling, conducting,
reporting and tracking corrective actions so nothing falls through the cracks
between audits.
Schedule & conduct

Plan and conduct supplier audits with a structured digital checklist

Schedule supplier audits directly in Food Trace annual reviews, site visits, desk assessments or unannounced audits. Auditors complete structured digital checklists on-site, capturing findings, photos and notes in real time.

Every assessment is date-stamped and immediately available to your team the moment it is submitted no more waiting for Word documents to arrive by email.
  • Configurable audit checklists per audit type and supplier category
  • Supports site visits, desk reviews and unannounced assessments
  • Photo and note capture during on-site assessments

Track & close

Log non-conformances and track corrective actions to closure

Every non-conformance identified during an audit is logged as a corrective action request in Food Trace. Suppliers receive immediate notification and can respond with evidence of resolution directly through the platform. 

Your team tracks progress in real time no email chains, no spreadsheet logs, no chasing. Every CAR is retained permanently as part of your supplier's audit history.
  • Corrective action requests issued instantly from audit findings
  • Suppliers upload resolution evidence directly in the platform
  • Full CAR history retained for every supplier across all audits
