The Innovation of Touch Audit™

Don’t take our word for it – verify the truth for yourself. Scanning a unique Sources to Courses QR code displayed on a product or menu gives you instant access to any VDT record with all of the WHERE, WHEN, WHO, WHAT information detailed above. 

Sources to Courses is an easy to use platform for food tracking and traceability.

Benefits of

Validated Data Tokens™

Operations are easily logged for planting, growing, and harvesting processes to prove the quality and freshness of the food produced.

 

Each VDT is connected to a Sources to Courses QR code which can be attached to packaging for distributors, consumers, and inspectors to view and validate the VDT records.

 

Scanning this code will show the WHERE, WHEN, WHO, WHAT attribute metadata for each purchase.

 

The S2C data-management console creates detailed reports for inspectors and auditors to view operations and production. 

 

Digitized processes and detailed records help businesses increase efficiencies and make data-informed decisions.

S2C provides businesses with a platform to log planting, growing, & harvest processes, demonstrating food quality/freshness.

How It Works

What is Contained in a VDT Record?

Our VDT records are embedded with rich attribute metadata detailing:

WHO

Biometrics and VDT IDs of associated individuals, including:

  • Farm employees

  • Distribution or warehouse employees

  • Shipping company employees

  • Retail employees

WHAT

Unique identifiers, photos, and relevant documents, including:

  • Scannable QR codes on products

  • Photos of each stage

  • Certifications of businesses

WHEN

Permanent timestamps of pertinent operations, including:

  • Planting and harvesting of crops

  • Packaging

  • Pickup and delivery 

WHERE

GPS coordinates of each applicable stage, including:

  • Farm

  • Warehouse

  • Packaging site

  • Distribution company

  • Pickup and delivery locations

Consumers Can Independently Verify With Touch Audit™

 

When food shopping or dining in a restaurant, simply scanning the QR code on the packaging or menu with a mobile device will reveal the VDT data (WHERE, WHEN WHO, WHAT) for each stage of Source, Transportation, and Course. 

 

Verify the authenticity of the origin, the quality of the ingredients, the integrity of the transport, and the true expiration date of the food. 

Consumers are able to verify the food freshness using the Sources to Courses app.

How It Works

Sources to Courses is an end-to-end guide for all sides of the supply chain.

The Gap in Food-Sourcing Today

Verifying the freshness and quality of food is a challenge not only for consumers but for producers and distributors as well. Specific labels and claims on food packaging are difficult to trust and likewise difficult to prove. There’s a missing link – products need to be traced back to their origin. 

S2C Solutions

Our Traceable Records are Transparent and Verified

Sources to Courses is an end-to-end guide for all sides of the supply chain. What sets S2C apart is the truth found in the attribute metadata. Our platform provides the most detailed, transparent records for producer-to-consumer visualization permanently stored using  immutable ledger technology. Our records are straightforward, permanent, and verified. These traceable records are called Validated Data Tokens™ (VDTs) that are verified through the Touch Audit™ feature.
