QA schemes
Customers commonly require compliance with a specific quality assurance program – Freshcare, SQF, GLOBALG.A.P. or BRCGS, plus HARPS for the major retailers – and some markets have regulatory requirements of their own. Contaminated produce can cause food poisoning or injury; QA systems are the framework that prevents it.

Retailer specifications
Woolworths, Coles, ALDI and IGA each publish produce specifications covering size, colour, defects and tolerances. Inspection templates in Producepak are set to those specifications per product and customer.
Corrective action
When a result falls outside tolerance, alerts go to the right people – buyer, packhouse manager, grower liaison – with photos attached, and the corrective action is recorded.
AI inspection on a phone
Producepak QI scores defects from photos and the inspector approves the result. At a seven-site grower-packer, inspection time fell from 14.5 to 4.35 minutes per sample and AI accuracy reached 99.8 % within six months. Read the case study.
