September 2, 2015 | Salt Lake City, Utah – ReposiTrak, the leading provider of Compliance Management and Track & Trace solutions for food safety exclusively endorsed by FMI and ROFDA, announces today that Certco, Inc. is the ninth member of ROFDA (Retailer Owned Food Distributors & Associates) selecting ReposiTrak® to manage its food safety-related risk.
“The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) regulations now require us to manage and store literally thousands of vendor documents,” said Randall Simon, CEO, Certco, Inc. “We chose ReposiTrak to automate our document management efforts and especially liked the dashboards and alerts for missing, inaccurate or expired documents that will only engage our staff on an exception basis as we move forward.”
Powered by Park City Group’s (NASDAQ:PCYG) technology, the ReposiTrak platform helps manage regulatory, financial and brand risk associated with issues of safety in the global food, pharma and dietary supply chains. The platform consists of two systems: Compliance Management, which not only receives, stores and shares documentation, but also manages compliance through dashboards and alerts for missing or expired documents; and Track & Trace, which quickly identifies product ingredients and their supply chain path in the unfortunate event of a product recall. It can reduce the risk in the supply chain by identifying backward chaining sources and forward chaining recipients of products in near real time.
“Similar to the reaction to Sarbanes-Oxley, more and more executives are now realizing that they are now personally responsible for their supply chain’s compliance with FSMA, which began finalization in August,” said Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group. “Continued member adoption of the ReposiTrak system further supports ROFDA’s commitment to manage risk out of the food supply chain.”
