Cross Borders - Integrated Quality Assurance Systems in Pork Production Chains along the Dutch German Border

Effective quality management in the meat industry depends on knowledge- and information exchange between the various links of a production chain. It improves productivity, leads to better consumer care and reduces risks. Practical solutions for its support within food chains leave ample room for improvement. Wherever trans border trade relations exist, the challenge for integrated supply chains is even bigger. The Dutch-German initiative GIQS develops a tool box of IT systems to support chain oriented quality- and health management in the pig sector of Germany and the Netherlands. After a pilot testing phase the tools will also be available for other food chains who want to set up or improve their integrated quality assurance system.
