Washington, D.C. — Novolyze, a company that provides food safety solutions and quality digitization technology, announced it has released advanced predictive data modeling and analytics enhanced by AI and machine learning (ML) for its Sanitation Complete and Environmental Monitoring Platform (EMP).
This latest release enables Novolyze’s technology to automatically generate trend charts and digital heat maps using historical and real time data from multiple data inputs. Enriching existing reporting capabilities, the new trend charts and heat maps provide a visually comprehensive view for identifying high risk areas, outbreak forecasting and prediction of where and when pathogens such as Listeria or Salmonella may present during certain process times and seasons.
Digitalization of the EMP and Sanitation programs allows food and beverage manufacturers to reduce paper and provides real-time data to maintain food safety and quality, especially for ready-to-eat (RTE) foods. RTE foods are those that do not require any further cooking or processing before consumption, and as such, they are at higher risk of contamination by foodborne pathogens.
“We are committed to providing the latest technology and solutions to help the food industry reduce risk and maintain the highest levels of food safety,” said Novolyze CEO Karim-Franck Khinouche. “With this latest release, our EMP and Sanitation Complete platform is more powerful than ever and delivers greater value to the food and beverage industry. We are excited to continue helping our customers keep their food safe.”
The use of predictive insight in EMP and sanitation can help food and beverage manufacturers identify potential areas of contamination before they present problems, reports Novolyze. By digitalizing the collection and analysis of data on environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity and sanitation practices, the solution develops models to predict where and when potential contamination events may occur. This enables manufacturers to take proactive measures to prevent contamination, rather than waiting for a problem to arise and then reacting to it.
Additionally, the use of predictive modeling helps improve product quality, says Novolyze. By real time and predictive monitoring of data on environmental conditions, manufacturers can identify and address issues that potentially affect the quality of the product, such as changes in temperature or humidity. This helps ensure consistent product quality to meet the expectations of consumers.
“Novolyze’s EMP solution is particularly relevant in the current climate, with foodborne illness outbreaks becoming far too common,” said Khinouche. “By utilizing the latest technology, including predictive analytics and machine learning, Novolyze’s EMP solution is helping to cut down on food safety and quality control issues, enabling manufacturers to maintain the highest levels of food safety and ensuring that consumers can trust the foods they eat.”
ISO 27001 CERTIFICATION. Novolyze also announced it has achieved ISO 27001 certification for its information security management system (ISMS). As an ISO 27001 certified supplier, Novolyze provides food and beverage companies seeking digital solutions to enhance food safety, quality performance and compliance greater assurance that their data is being handled in a secure and compliant manner.
ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard that sets out the requirements for an ISMS, which is a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information so that it remains secure.
“Having a reputable third-party organization affirm our security management processes through ISO 27001 certification demonstrates our unwavering commitment to safeguarding information security for existing and future customers,” said Khinouche. “This certification validates that our ISMS complies with international standards, providing customers trust, confidence and peace of mind for sensitive data critical to their food safety and quality initiatives. We will continue to invest in maintaining this certification and enhance our information security management practices to further build credibility and trust with our customers.”
