Why FSMA 204

Three Reasons Food Manufacturers Cannot Wait

FSMA 204 isn't just a paperwork exercise. The same records that satisfy the FDA also protect your operation from the things that quietly cost food businesses millions every year.

Regulatory Compliance

Keep the lot records the FDA Food Traceability Rule asks about in one system, and export any trace to a sortable spreadsheet when the FDA calls. Walmart, Costco, and Whole Foods now require the same level of digital traceability from vendors.

Operational Visibility

See lot-level inventory, yields, and shipments in real time across every site. Surface bottlenecks before they hit shipping and give your team one source of truth instead of seven spreadsheets.

Recall Protection

Trace any finished lot back to its raw ingredients and forward to every customer in minutes, not days. Contain the scope of a recall, prove what shipped where, and keep your retail listings intact.

What's Inside

A Three-Phase Framework to Hit the July 2028 Deadline

The kit walks you through foundation, technical execution, and digital auditing so your team can put a complete FSMA 204 program in place without guesswork.

Phase 1

Foundation & Strategy

Build a formal traceability plan, map every physical location with GPS coordinates, and sync your Traceability Lot Codes to invoices, bills of lading, and production logs.

Phase 2

Technical Execution

Capture the right Key Data Elements at each Critical Tracking Event - receiving, transformation, and shipping - so your records hold up under any FDA request.

Phase 3

Digital Auditing & Maintenance

Keep records for 24 months, run quarterly mock recalls under four hours, and exchange KDEs with upstream suppliers and downstream customers in digital format.

CTEs & KDEs

Every Critical Tracking Event, Every Required Data Element

FSMA 204 requires specific Key Data Elements (KDEs) at every stage of the product lifecycle. NutraSoft records the lot, quantity, date and trading partner at receiving, production and shipping as the work happens, and exports the trace to a sortable spreadsheet - so you can answer a regulator's request without scrambling through paper logs.

Lot codes recorded at receiving, assigned at production, and linked through shipping.

Each lot linked to its purchase order, production run, and invoices.

Enterprise mock recalls, with the evidence pack timed against a four-hour target.

Lot data shared with partners through the Enterprise REST API and webhooks.
