BT Safety LLC

BT Safety LLC was established following September 11 to build predictive modeling tools and software systems to facilitate rapid response to intentional and unintentional food safety and food security threats to the U.S. food supply. 

BT Safety has a goal of working with all segments of the food supply chain for the mutual benefit of government, industry and the public.
 
BT Safety has received a contract from the Food and Drug Administration, a grant from the Department of Homeland Security’s National Center for Food Protection and Defense, and participation from the United States Department of Agriculture to develop a user-friendly, PC-based simulation model to assist government and industry in rapidly and effectively responding to contamination of the food supply. 

BT Safety’s Consequence Management System (CMS) is a software system that will assist government and industry in rapidly and effectively responding to intentional and unintentional contamination of the food supply. 

“The Consequence Management System has resulted in a collaborative program involving FDA, DHS, USDA, CDC and EPA.  Government recognizes a public/private partnership is critical for defense of the U.S. food supply.  I applaud and encourage continued collaboration by the private sector in the development of the CMS.”

BT Safety’s Containment and Remediation System (CRS) is a software system designed for planning, managing and tracking containment and remediation activities once a food contamination has occurred and the bioterrorism agent associated with the attack has been identified.

BT Safety’s mission is to develop tools for government and industry that enhance their ability to respond rapidly and effectively to food defense and food safety incidents.
