Raw material risk monitoring: every material, watched and scored

Raw material risk monitoring means continuously scoring every ingredient you buy against live safety signals. Five modules monitor global sources, score your raw materials weekly, and predict what testing labs will find months from now.

What is raw material risk monitoring?

Raw material risk monitoring is the continuous scoring of every ingredient a food company buys against live safety signals — instead of a once-a-year risk assessment. Five modules monitor, score and predict — detailed below. Scores update weekly, so purchasing and quality teams always see this week’s risk — and what next quarter is likely to bring.

Five modules that watch every raw material

Module · Monitor

Authority Notifications

All food safety notifications worldwide since 2000, mapped to your ingredients, suppliers and sourcing countries — with predictions based on historic notification patterns.

  • Authority notifications worldwide, continuously ingested
  • Filtered to your ingredient & origin portfolio
iComplai authority notifications, filtered to a three-ingredient portfolio: 7,763 notifications, with the hazard categories ranked from pathogenic micro-organisms down to organoleptic aspects.

Module · Monitor

Food Safety Risk Signals

Global signals with AI translation, ranking and categorisation. Every item scored 1–3 by severity of impact, so analysts read the signals that matter.

  • 150,000 sources, 100.000 signals daily
  • Food safety separated from food fraud automatically
Ten substances ranked by how many distinct articles mentioned them, each bar split by impact score — salmonella and listeria weighted towards score 3, benzene and allergens towards score 2.

Raw Material Risk Scoring

A proprietary algorithm calculating weekly risk scores per raw material and hazard category — directly usable for HACCP risk analysis and supplier audit prioritisation.

  • Incident data, de-duplicated and severity-weighted
  • Defensible data source for audits

Custom Incident Counting

Multiple notifications on the same incident are counted as one — so your trend lines tell the truth.

Module · Predict

Pesticide Risk Prediction

Every pesticide detected on your ingredients and origins is tracked against its own history. A substance breaking away from its normal rate surfaces as a signal while the shift is still forming.

  • Ranks substances by how far they have moved above their own baseline
  • Origin-specific: the same ingredient behaves differently by sourcing country
  • Points testing at what is moving, instead of repeating last year’s panel
Ten pesticides whose notifications in the last thirty days ran furthest above their own monthly average — clothianidin, procymidone, thiamethoxam, paclobutrazol and thiodicarb at the top.

Common questions about raw material risk

Q1

Which data sources feed the monitoring?

Around 80 regulatory authorities plus 150,000 global media and research sources, filtered to your own ingredient and origin portfolio.

Q2

How far ahead can pesticide risks be predicted?

Up to 12 months per ingredient–origin combination — in individual cases even longer. The model maps all detected pesticides, flags compounds not covered by routine testing, and correlates origin-specific residue patterns with MRL thresholds.
