Australia's food safety information portal

Food Safety Capability Map

The Food Safety Centre’s (FSC) Capability Map is an internet-based Food Safety Locator listing Australia’s food safety research and training providers. Essentially it is a directory of organisations, people and facilities that conduct research and services that are related to food safety. There is no charge to be listed in the database. We support this resource through a subscription service offered through the Food Safety Centre.

Structure of the Map

Organisations and individuals listed in the Capability Map range from companies and consultants through to government bodies, universities and professional organisations. Capabilities include physical, chemical or microbial hazards, or a combination thereof, as well as provision of food safety training. This includes groups/individuals who have a direct focus on food safety, as well as those with expertise about hazards that could potentially affect the food supply. For example, you may not work directly on food safety, however you may have expertise about a hazard that could be useful to risk managers in food companies, an industry body or government organisation, should such a consultation be needed in the future.

Who will use the Capability Map?
Individuals, companies and organisations that require external expertise to solve food safety problems. Users gain access to the Capability Map through an annual subscription fee that is used by the FSC to offset costs for expanding and maintaining the database.
