Safefood 360 Food Safety and Supplier Quality Management

Safefood 360 was built in 2010 by a group of food safety experts and lists its office in Dublin, Ireland. In July 2025 it became part of Ideagen, a compliance software group headquartered in Nottingham, UK, with offices in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, including Malaysia, the Philippines and India. It helps food manufacturers replace paper and spreadsheets used to run HACCP plans, prerequisite programmes and supplier approval for GFSI audits.

The cloud platform, built on Microsoft Azure, offers more than 35 pre-set modules. HACCP and preventive control plans use risk assessment models, decision trees and a hazard database; the management system covers CAPA, deviations, audits, management review and recalls; prerequisite programmes cover cleaning, maintenance, pest control, training and glass control; monitoring links production records with IoT data and alerts; and supplier and document control modules manage approvals, scorecards and versions.

• HACCP and PCP plans: risk assessment models, decision trees and a custom hazard database.
• Management system: CAPA, deviations, auditing, management review and recalls.
• Prerequisite programmes: cleaning, maintenance, pest control, training and glass and plastic control.

• Seafood processors in the Mekong Delta managing HACCP plans and CAPA for BRCGS and IFS audits.
• Food and beverage factories running supplier approval and scorecards across raw material vendors.
• Multi-site food groups centralising document control and recall procedures.

• Audit readiness: supports any GFSI-recognised standard and major retailer technical standards in one system.
• Time savings: Santa Monica Seafood reports a 45% time reduction after implementation.
• Supplier risk control: approved supplier lists, self-assessments, audits and scorecards in one place.
• Real-time monitoring: IoT integration and alerts for production and batch records.

Export-oriented food manufacturers face more frequent BRCGS, FSSC 22000, SQF and retailer audits, and buyers expect digital, audit-ready records. In Vietnam, seafood, fruit and processed food exporters supplying the EU, US and Japan are moving their HACCP and supplier programmes from paper to cloud systems.
