Traceability and quality control at ÖFK Österreichische Fleischkontrolle ÖFK Österreichische Fleischkontrolle ÖFK Österreichische Fleischkontrolle

As the umbrella organization of the Austrian classification services, the ÖFK plays the important role of interface between farmers, slaughterhouses, data customers (e.g. EZG, veterinarians) and government agencies (e.g. AMA, BMSGPK) in Austria. It manages the data flows of classifications, quality programs and ante-mortem and post-mortem inspections and ensures traceability, transparency and quality control. In order to protect the interests of everyone involved in the process and to guarantee complete control, digital support is required.

In the joint project group FOODFAIR solutions based on Artificial Intelligence are also being developed, which are used in various areas of the value chain from pasture to plate and thus improve the food world in the long term.

Today an individually developed Web application networks all those involved in the process on a central platform. As a result, the requirements for high data quality, time and cost-saving processes, complete transparency and traceability are fully met.

The joint development of the SLA CLASSIFAI® BOXEN (with integrated cameras) has also resulted in the first product in the field of Artificial Intelligence, which is already being used successfully in various projects.

And with these products it's possible:

Through the use of digital solutions, the ÖFK has become one of the most important hubs when it comes to process optimization, transparency and safety in the Austrian meat industry.

Development of a nationwide classification and animal health system for the independent documentation of classification and slaughter results, incl. networking of all those involved in the process on a central platform in the form of a digital web application

Digital transmission of the slaughter, classification and veterinary findings data from all affiliated companies at the end of each slaughter day to the ÖFK headquarters

Viewing the results immediately on the day of slaughter

Audit-proof archiving of all data

Avoidance of double data collection, thereby saving time and money in internal processes

Management tool (e.g. of employees, locations, devices, events) and internal messaging system

Central control of the slaughterhouses in some areas (e.g. central user administration, central definition of brand programs)

Über 80 affiliated slaughterhouses

Over 100,000 registered users

Over 30,000 views per day

Up to 1,000 farmers logging in every day (continuous increase)

Reliable transparency of origin and strengthening of trust in local food
