Digital Food Safety Compliance Platform
Digitise food safety compliance
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) compliance is a legal requirement for food businesses, but the tools available were paper-heavy, error-prone, and poorly suited to modern kitchen environments. Peter Hennessy identified an opportunity to digitise food safety compliance and address several key challenges:
- Replacing manual, paper-based food safety records with a structured digital system
- Automating temperature monitoring, breach detection, and compliance logging
- Supporting real-time sensor integration for continuous kitchen monitoring
- Building a scalable, multi-role platform supporting kitchens, companies, and administrators
The COMAND team worked with Peter Hennessy and HACCP Flow Ltd to build a comprehensive digital food safety and compliance platform from the ground up — progressing from an initial API prototype to a feature-rich, containerised, multi-platform application now serving food businesses across Ireland.
HACCP Flow platform
As an early-stage company with no prior technical team, HACCP Flow needed a capable development partner to translate the concept into a robust, commercially viable product.
Through several successive Innovation Voucher collaborations, COMAND engineers built and progressively enhanced the HACCP Flow platform phase by phase:
- Phase 1 – Core Platform
- Phase 2 – HACCP Compliance Features
- Phase 3 – Mobile App & Bluetooth Probe Integration
- Phase 4 – Remote Cold Monitoring
- Phase 5 – Production Readiness
- Phase 6 – Intelligent Monitoring & Compliance Automation

“The ethos behind HACCP Flow has always been that HACCP doesn’t have to be complicated. Our collaboration with COMAND and TUS has allowed us to combine over 30 years of practical food industry experience with technology that makes recording and managing HACCP information as simple and intuitive as possible.
Together, we have developed and enhanced mobile functionality, QR traceability and printing, data analytics, user engagement tracking, and a comprehensive notification and reminder system across the platform. Management can access compliance information almost instantly, including across multiple sites, while automated reminders help ensure important HACCP tasks are completed. More recently, AI-driven reporting has allowed us to turn the information being recorded into meaningful insights for management, all while keeping simplicity and ease of use at the heart of the system”.
