Why it matters
The audit scramble is usually an evidence problem
Food and beverage teams already manage the food safety program. Valent helps with the evidence layer around suppliers, ingredients, certifications, traceability, customer requests, and audit packets.
A supplier certificate expires before the next SQF, BRCGS, customer, or retailer audit.
FSMA 204 traceability records have to be producible on a 24-hour request, but the lot data sits across suppliers and spreadsheets.
QA knows a COA, spec, or letter of guarantee exists, but not which version is current.
Use cases
Where Valent fits
Valent sits between suppliers, documents, reviewers, and customer requests so evidence stays current before the audit window opens.

Implementation
What implementation looks like
Valent turns that request into a requirement map, connects the supplier and ingredient evidence behind each line, and keeps it current so the next SQF, BRCGS, or customer audit does not restart the work.
Map the audit or customer request
Translate the SQF, BRCGS, FSVP, customer, or retailer requirements into a requirement-level evidence map.
Connect supplier and ingredient evidence
Approvals, certificates, specs, allergen and origin records, and lot and traceability data are organized around the requirements they support.
Set review and release gates
Supplier chases, corrective actions, and packet releases stop for QA approval before anything goes out.
Monitor expirations and traceability gaps
Expiring certificates, stale specs, and missing lot records surface as review items before the audit window opens.
Implementation starts with the customer request your team is already answering.
Valent turns that first packet into the rollout: the requirements to map, the evidence to connect, the reviewers to assign, and the controls that keep release safe.
