Product Safety Product Safety (17) Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls (1) description: Ontomatica's Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls Data Application integrates relevant ontology rules (items, properties, relationships and constraints) with relevant data sets. The Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls Data Application is used to specify actions to prevent biological, chemical, and physical hazards in food production processes . Background: Hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls or HARPC is a successor to the Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) food safety system. It is mandated by the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) of 2010. As the name implies, Preventive Controls systems emphasize prevention of hazards before they occur rather than their detection after they occur. The FDA is releasing the rules in the Federal Registry beginning in September 2015. The first release of rules addressed Preventive Controls for Human Food and Preventive Controls for Foods for Animals. The Produce Safety Final Rule, the Foreign Supplier Verification Programs (FSVP) Final Rule and the Accredited Third-Party Certification Final Rule were issued on November 13, 2015. The Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food final rule was issued on April 6, 2016, and the Mitigation Strategies To Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration (Food Defense) final rule was issued on May 27, 2016.
