Food Safety Work Group

We support the FDA's Smarter Food Supply Chain Initiative. AIM NA members have spoken on Capitol Hill on several initiatives similar to this including the UDI initiative, the IUID regulation, and the DSCSA regulations. In some ways, FSMA can be compared to the Unique Device Identification bill in that things need a data carrier containing a Globally Unique digital identity creating a digital identity to show provenance. Our goal is standards-based interoperability with the believe that it benefits all supply chain participants by lowering the technological and financial barriers to adoption.
