Pairs services with Matrix Sciences with the leader in cloud-based compliance, quality, and new product development software for the CPG industry.

Matrix Sciences today announced a strategic alliance with TraceGains, the leader in cloud-based compliance, quality, and new product development software for the consumer-packaged goods (CPG) industry. The companies have partnered to offer integrated solutions that combine TraceGains industry-leading software with Matrix Sciences’ food safety advisory services, laboratory testing, and data analytics.

The combined strength of the team of experts at Matrix Sciences who specialize in microbiological testing, food chemistry, sensory analysis, food safety, and research with the TraceGains suite of products that maximize new product development, food safety, quality, and business intelligence will give joint customers a distinct advantage in the marketplace.

“We’re thrilled to combine the unparalleled data analytics and advisory services of Matrix Sciences with the power of TraceGains Network to speed up information exchange and provide deep insight to customers,” Matrix Sciences CEO Robert Wiebe said. “Matrix Sciences and TraceGains will offer risk-mitigating advisory services using TraceGains software, as well as complete on-site consulting and crisis-management programs.”

“Software can solve a lot of problems, but food, beverage, and CPG companies need experts with regulatory and scientific technical knowledge to develop new products and oversee safe manufacturing and distribution practices,” TraceGains CEO Gary Nowacki said. “Matrix Sciences’ technical expertise complements what TraceGains technology can do. Through this agreement with Matrix Sciences, we’ll be able to provide customers integrated supply chain monitoring, evaluating, and testing services.”

Customers will have access to: 

  • Advanced analysis of incoming materials.
  • Remote risk assessments.
  • Onsite verification & coaching assessments.
  • Crisis preparedness and crisis management services.
  • Laboratory testing services.

With this arrangement, the two companies will work together to build an API to link TraceGains software solutions with Matrix Sciences data analytics platform. The API will be available to customers in November 2019.
