• Contamination in Production
• Contamination in Processing
• Contamination in Distribution
• Contamination in Preparation
Definition: Product Tracing• Traceback is NOT Recall
▫ How do you find points of convergence when much is unknown?
• A single company doesn’t have traceability – but is a critical piece of the puzzle!
Traceback Recall
Benefits
Costs
Cost Benefit Evaluation• Public health and social benefits
▫ For example – lives saved, illnesses prevented, gains in productivity
• FDA operational benefits▫ responsiveness, reputation, resource allocation
• Industry benefits▫ increased brand reputation, increased consumer
confidence, improved recall scope, improved supply chain management
FDA operational costs
• Analytical and Field FTE’s and associated costs; training
• New System Implementation (Implementation and Maintenance)
• Compliance
Industry implementation costs
• Software; Capital expenditures
• Change to current processes
• Compliance
