Food safety software for UK manufacturers.
Run food safety checks at the line and keep the records UK customers and auditors ask for.
One evidence base, many audiences
HACCP, CCPs, prerequisites, cleaning, calibration and training are captured once and presented per audit scheme — FSA, BRCGS, SALSA, retailer code.
Allergen Control Enforced at the Line
Allergen matrices drive scheduling, changeover cleaning verification and scan-gated label checks so the wrong label physically cannot be applied to…
Checks captured live, in the moment
Every entry is time-stamped, attributable and tamper-evident.
What goes wrong today3 common problems
Three audiences, three sets of paperwork
The EHO, the retailer technologist and the BRCGS auditor all want the same underlying evidence presented differently — so sites keep maintaining it three times.
Allergen Control Lives on Labels and Goodwill
Natasha's Law and retailer codes demand demonstrable allergen segregation, changeover cleaning and label verification, not a declaration.
Records are only as good as the last shift
Paper checks get back-filled. Back-filled records are the single most common data-integrity finding in a UK food audit.

One evidence base, many audiences
HACCP, CCPs, prerequisites, cleaning, calibration and training are captured once and presented per audit scheme — FSA, BRCGS, SALSA, retailer code.
Allergen Control Enforced at the Line
Allergen matrices drive scheduling, changeover cleaning verification and scan-gated label checks so the wrong label physically cannot be applied to the wrong product.
Checks captured live, in the moment
Every entry is time-stamped, attributable and tamper-evident. Missed checks escalate before the shift ends rather than being discovered at audit.
Trace to the pallet, in both directions
Raw material lot through production to customer dispatch, with mass balance and a withdrawal/recall pack ready to issue.
Runs UK-hosted
Private-cloud deployment in a UK region for sites with data-residency requirements in their retailer or customer agreements.

Common questions5 answers
- What does food safety software need to do for a UK site?
- It has to hold live HACCP and CCP monitoring, prerequisite programmes, allergen controls, cleaning verification, calibration and training records, and produce traceability and recall evidence — in a form an EHO, a retailer technologist and a BRCGS auditor will each accept.
- Does V5 help with Natasha's Law and allergen labelling?
- Yes. Allergen matrices drive production sequencing and changeover cleaning verification, and label application is scan-gated against the order so mislabelling is blocked rather than detected later.
- Can we host in the UK?
- Yes — regulated enterprise deployments run as a single-tenant private cloud, and a UK region is available where data residency is contractually required.
- How does it fit with our existing ERP?
- ERP keeps planning, purchasing and finance. V5 executes and evidences what happened on the floor, then posts consumption, yield and lot genealogy back.
- How long does a UK site take to go live?
- Multi-site groups with validation and train-the-trainer follow the phased enterprise implementation path.
