Leading Grocery & Foodservice Supply Chain Company Streamlines Quality & Safety Inspections

"McLane's success is rooted in a robust quality assurance program," said Sam Richardson, director of food safety, McLane. "With RizePoint, we will streamline our audits, ensure visibility of all inspection data, and—most importantly—we'll be able to automate corrective action across locations. By streamlining our compliance efforts we'll protect our industry-leading food safety reputation."

McLane is the latest company to launch RizePoint for self-assessments and quality assurance reporting.

"Quality assurance is vital in the food industry and one of the biggest challenges for distributors of perishable goods," said Frank Maylett, CEO and president, RizePoint. "Daily and weekly audits create infinite amounts of data that is difficult and time consuming to analyze with traditional processes. We're proud that McLane chose RizePoint to bring visibility to quality assurance trends."  

RizePoint's software solutions include its end-to-end system to facilitate on-site inspections. Data is immediately uploaded and analyzed for the purposes of meeting safety regulations, managing quality standards, and ensuring proper employee training. With RizePoint, top food service brands ensure food safety—from distribution to the dinner table.
