Australasian Medical & Scientific has announced the Lightning MVP ICON from Biocontrol, an instrument and software platform that combines HACCP and hygiene monitoring with powerful program management capabilities. MVP ICON measures ATP, which is an indicator of hygiene as it is present in most food residues and microorganisms. Other key HACCP parameters measured include pH, temperature, conductivity and chemical concentration.

The MVP ICON Dashboard software provides key program analytics, updated in real time, that provide performance data critical to managing a quality program. The Dashboard software serves as a control panel, providing quality assurance professionals with a quick overview of key control metrics, assuring their HACCP plans and sanitation protocols are being followed and properly executed.

The dashboard provides insight into criteria for a sanitation program, such as the amount of ATP swabs used in comparison to a set target, whether failed results have been adequately re-cleaned and retested, and when the MVP ICON’s next calibration is due. The software also features original print-and-present HACCP reports to reduce the amount of time quality managers spend analysing HACCP trending data and preparing for audits.

The instrument has a lightweight design and touch screen. Test points can be organised into sample plans to efficiently conduct testing throughout a facility, and retest tracking ensures testing complies with standard operating procedures. The ability to randomise test points eliminates testing bias and adds another management tool for ensuring program compliance.
