In this article, we explain what Knowledge Point is.
A Knowledge Point, also known as a KP, is a regulatory fact, recommendation, guidance or piece of scientific data. It offers technical expertise regarding the ingredients.
The Knowledge Point presents information to the user in a concise, clear and easily understandable format.
In SGS Digicomply, knowledge points are a key feature and are utilized in several modules, including Regulatory Agenda, Food Regulatory Guides, Nutriwise, Restricted Substances, etc.
Regulatory Agenda
By selecting a market, you will be able to view the upcoming due dates for a regulatory event/ change, which can be explored individually.

Food Regulatory Guides

After accessing the regulatory guide, you have the option to choose the regulatory class/area that you are interested in, e.g. Labelling requirements - Labelling of GMOs and Bioengineered Food. Simply click on the text beneath the heading Labelling of GMOs and Bioengineered Food, and it will guide you to the knowledge point offering precise details and references.
Nutriwise
