How SGS Digicomply monitors ongoing regulatory changes through expert review and system automation.
When a country's regulation is under reform, maintaining compliance requires a multi-layered approach. SGS Digicomply combines dedicated expert curation with automated system monitoring to ensure you have the latest status.
Expert Curation (The SGS Author)
Our Food Regulatory Guides (FRGs) are intended to provide the most current regulations for the categories they cover.
-
Role of the Expert: An assigned SGS author is tasked with monitoring the regulatory environment.
-
Updates: When major updates or reforms occur, the author reviews the changes and manually updates the content of the guide to reflect the new reality.
Automated System Monitoring
Beyond human review, the platform itself provides active monitoring for specific documents.
-
Dynamic Links: Regulations pinned to the FRGs are not static text; they are "live" links to the library.
-
Visual Indicators: The system visibly marks pinned regulations if they are changed or repealed.
- Alerts: If a pinned regulation is modified, the system triggers an in-app alert notification.
For more details on how these alerts appear, please refer to our article on Monitoring Legislative Changes & Updates.
Granular Monitoring (User Action)
While Food Guides provide a high-level overview of the regulatory landscape, they may not cover every niche regulation applicable to your specific product formula.
-
Recommendation: To ensure you do not miss updates specific to your business needs, we recommend setting up personalized Feeds.
-
How it works: A Feed can be configured to track specific ingredients, products, or keywords. This ensures you are notified immediately when new regulations matching your exact criteria are detected in the market.
