TGTraceGuard AIProduct & FSMA 204 briefing

Recall readiness, without the crisis

Turn traceability records into operational proof.

TraceGuard AI gives food-safety teams one workspace to organize records, find gaps, measure readiness, run recalls, and export defensible evidence.

TGTraceGuard AIThe problem

A recall exposes every disconnected record.

Fragmented evidence

Files live everywhere

Lots, suppliers, customers, shipments, COAs, and supporting documents are split across spreadsheets, inboxes, and folders.

Unknown readiness

Gaps surface too late

Teams often cannot see incomplete links, missing quantities, stale documents, or weak recall evidence until a customer or auditor asks.

Time pressure

Response work is manual

Tracing backward and forward, contacting partners, reconciling quantities, and packaging proof become crisis tasks.

Designed for day-to-day readiness—not just the day of a recall.02 / 12
TGTraceGuard AIWho it serves

Built for the teams accountable for traceability.

Organizations
  • Small and mid-sized food manufacturers
  • Importers and co-packers
  • Private-label and ingredient operations
  • Food-safety consultants supporting client workspaces
Primary buyers & operators
  • Quality assurance and food-safety leaders
  • Compliance and traceability managers
  • Operations and supply-chain leaders
  • Owners and executives who need a clear risk view

Every operational record is workspace-scoped, with QC, Admin, and Super Admin role boundaries in the application.

Single workspace, shared operating picture.03 / 12
TGTraceGuard AICurrent · Records & intake

Build a connected record system without rekeying everything.

Records Library

Connected operational records

Suppliers, customers, ingredients, products, facilities, lots, shipments, documents, and traceability links in one workspace.

Spreadsheet Import

Deterministic, no AI required

Import CSV or XLSX supplier, customer, and lot data through the same review-and-validation workflow.

COA processing

OCR, extraction, then review

Upload PDF, JPG, or PNG COAs. Digital text is parsed directly; scanned files use OCR before structured extraction and human confirmation.

AI-assisted document import also accepts PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, JSON, and TXT. Extracted values prefill a reviewable entry; they are not silently treated as verified facts.

Validation remains visible before records are saved.04 / 12
TGTraceGuard AICurrent · Readiness score

A weighted 0–100 score with the evidence behind it.

The same readiness score appears on Overview and Reports. It measures current record and drill readiness—not regulatory certification.

35%Record completeness
30%Traceability gap health
20%Mock-recall recency
15%Mock-recall performance

Historical trend

Actual persisted snapshots support 7-, 30-, and 90-day, 6- and 12-month, and custom ranges. Multiple changes on one day collapse to the latest daily score with context.

Supporting FSMA metric

FSMA 204 KDE coverage is captured separately from the weighted readiness score. The chart never invents or backfills past values from today’s state.

Confidence reflects the amount of usable evidence in the workspace.05 / 12
TGTraceGuard AICurrent · Gap remediation

See what lowered readiness—and where to fix it.

Detect

Traceability gaps

Deterministic rules surface missing links, quantities, units, facilities, and supporting information.

Prioritize

Severity levels

Blocker, review-required, and warning states make operational risk scannable without relying on color alone.

Correct

Guided fixes

Deep links return users to the exact record or relationship that needs completion or correction.

Maintain

Document health

COA expiration tracking identifies expired, due-soon, missing-date, and not-required states.

Score-impacting changes are timestamped and associated with the workspace.06 / 12

Structured FSMA 204 readiness tools, pending production sign-off.

Assessment & KDE coverage

FTL confirmation, Receiving, Transformation, and Shipping checks, category context, exact gaps, and separate KDE coverage.

Guided remediation & exports

Record-level fix links plus branded FSMA 204 assessment exports in XLSX and PDF formats.

Traceability Plan

Create a workspace-scoped written plan, retain source provenance, save drafts, complete it, and export a branded PDF.

The Food Traceability Rule calls for KDEs at CTEs and, when requested, a sortable electronic spreadsheet within 24 hours. Enforcement is currently scheduled for July 20, 2028. TraceGuard AI’s detailed assessment and plan tools are enabled in Finalstage or by preview flag; they are not a legal opinion, regulatory approval, or compliance certification.

Preview scope is intentionally separated from generally available features.07 / 12
TGTraceGuard AICurrent · Recall operations

Run the workflow before the pressure is real.

Scope

Start a Mock Recall or Recall Alert from an affected lot and trace backward and forward.

Reach

Track supplier and customer outreach, acknowledgments, and evidence.

Reconcile

Compare quantities and document unresolved exceptions with PCQI-led review.

Close out

Record decisions, complete the drill, and export the evidence package.

TGTraceGuard AICurrent · Operations

Keep readiness visible between drills.

Documents

Versions and expiration

Attach evidence to records, preserve document versions, preview files, and monitor COA expiration status.

Notifications

In-app and email events

Operational notices cover recall activity, document requests and acknowledgments, standing reminders, and expiration checks.

Reporting

Shareable evidence

Export readiness and drill reports, branded PDFs, filtered workbooks, and closeout ZIP packages from current workspace data.

Connected-company sharing, incoming shares, and document request workflows support collaboration while maintaining workspace scope and role checks.

Notification delivery depends on each configured channel and deployment integration.09 / 12
TGTraceGuard AIThe operating loop

Review. Assess. Determine. Improve.

Review

Bring records together

Enter, import, validate, connect, and maintain operational evidence.

Assess

Measure readiness

Use the weighted score, actual trend history, gap rules, and timed drills.

Determine

Know the next fix

Prioritize blockers and follow guided links back to the underlying data.

Improve

Prove the change

Capture new evidence, verify the updated score, and export the result.

One repeatable workflow for daily records and recall readiness.10 / 12

Make readiness a routine—not a scramble.

See how TraceGuard AI maps your records, exposes gaps, and turns a mock recall into evidence your team can act on.

TraceGuard AI supports operational readiness and recordkeeping workflows. It does not provide legal advice, determine whether a business is covered by FSMA 204, or certify compliance. Organizations remain responsible for regulatory applicability and final decisions.
