Work outcome: TheFSM project requirements (i.e. business, legal, technical and data requirements), which formed the basis of the main functionalities of TheFSM platform and applications.
Related progress in the Reporting Period: During the first part of the reporting period (M19-M25), the primary objective was to update the requirements of the applications based on the findings from the first cycle of Pilots. The focus was on fulfilling the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and ensuring that the applications aligned with the Project Validated Requirements in line with end-users' prioritization.
Work outcome: Deliver an open industrial-grade data platform that facilitates the exchange and monetisation of sensitive data between different food safety actors
Related progress in the Reporting Period:
Core Platform: This reporting period’s focus was on designing and specifying the open and shared reference architecture of the data platform. The updated version of TheFSM architecture served as the building blocks of the platform.
Related progress in the Reporting Period: Our main objective during the reporting period was to design and develop new features for TheFSM applications, integrating the suggestions and feedback gathered from the WP6 pilots, as reflected in D6.2 and the updated requirements of WP1, as reflected in the updates of D1.1. From M19-M24, WP4 activities focused on testing the beta version of TheFSM applications through WP6 pilots, enhancing the agile deployment approach by adding a more detailed and robust process for identifying, reporting, and correcting software bugs, iteratively developing new features based on focus groups' findings and WP1 requirements, creating the beta version of TheFSM applications (MS5), achieving and testing the interconnection of TheFSM applications through TheFSM platform API Gateway.
Work outcome: Piloting of certification processes and use of FSM applications in real-world scenarios
Related progress in the Reporting Period: During the reporting period, the consortium made significant progress towards the objective of piloting TheFSM platform and applications in real-world scenarios. The three pilot iterations involved more than 125 unique participants across 10 countries and 9 food sectors, providing valuable feedback for further development of the platform.
Work outcome: Impact Generation through targeted dissemination activities
Related progress in the Reporting Period: Overall, the project's dissemination strategy has been highly effective in reaching a diverse range of stakeholders and generating significant impact. The focus on high-quality content tailored to the needs of specific personas has ensured that TheFSM's message has been well received and that the project has been able to establish itself as a thought leader in the food safety and certification space.
