7. Expert Opinion
7.1 Verify Technologies Limited, Seamus McNamara, Director
Visiongain sought opinion of Seamus McNamara – current Director of Verify Technologies Limited
–Ireland-based private company that specialises in business process automation and provides
integrated, paperless business management system solutions. We interviewed Mr. McNamara in
November 2013 and would like to thank him for his time.
7.1.1 Trends and Developments
Visiongain: What would you say are the key trends and developments on the food traceability
market and why?
Seamus McNamara: I guess the key trend is that more companies are starting to do it: obviously
in some geographical regions it is driven by legislation, but in other areas it is driven by the
consumer awareness and by the market protection. So, companies, by large, are very much
focused on the need for full traceability and are actually implementing proper HACCP traceability
systems.
At present, I would say that most companies are still very “paper-based” and that is a major
restriction on the effectiveness of this kind of systems. There is a huge amount of data involved on
the traceability chain and trying to maintain that on paper is not really realistic. So, there is a
growing trend on automation of data collection, data search and data reporting.
7.1.2 Challenges and Opportunities
Visiongain: What challenges and opportunities do you expect to see in the food traceability
market over the next 10 years?
Seamus McNamara: Well, the challenges are obviously the huge amount of additional, potential
overhead on the business: there is added paperwork, checks and controls that need to be
recorded and maintained all through the process, like purchasing, inventory control, production
control and dispatch. So, there is a vast amount of additional amount of data collection, data
recording and analyses – and that is a huge challenge. In the food business, which presently has
got very tight margins and is very competitive, that is a very big issue.
7.1.2.1 Why Paper-Based Options are Becoming a Thing of the Past
However, that can also be seen as an opportunity: by and large most food companies have pretty
much out of date and basic business management systems, particularly the SME food companies.
