food import management information system...
TRANSCRIPT
Food Import Management Information System (FIMIS):National Health Programs recognize that a safe and nutritious food supply is a major contributory factor to the health of a country’s citizens and that there is a need to maintain a reputation nationally and internationally as a supplier of safe food products. Programs that ensure safe and nutritious food are receiving renewed attention in many countries and major food safety initiatives are being launched on an international scale.
Food safety is a concern shared by consumers, industries and governments and with the food industry constantly changing with new and evolving technologies being implemented, distribution systems are becoming much broader, and accessibility to a wider variety of food products, including imported foods is increasing. Consequently, many governments strive to develop a national import policy, by use of systems such as the Food Import Management System (FIMIS) to guide the integration of its various import inspection activities, including its controls, monitoring, and enforcement actions. Ultimately, this policy will provide the basis for the strategic approach to harmonize all import control activities.
FIMIS is an authentic and reliable tool for documenting, processing and managing information related to food import products. FIMIS institutes a database for accurate, reliable and easily accessed data related to the quality, safety and quantity of imported foods. The FIMIS system also provides a mechanism for maintaining an efficient food control system by automatically ascertain-ing non-compliant products. This system has optimized the prevention of consumer risk and has successfully improved the overall quality of imported foods.
Moreover, FIMIS has a built-in Online Analytical Reports (OLAP) component, which enhances decision-making processes in the food control division.
