Task 1.2.2 requires assessment of up to a maximum 20 national FCDB Compiler organisations over 2 years and overall recommendations for continuation in the future. This report describes reviews of 16 FCDB Compiler organisations and summarises conclusions based on the reports. FCDB Compiler organisations have benefitted from the opportunity to review their data compilation processes and identify areas that could be improved and this information is important for their own organisation and management operations. The reviews have demonstrated the impact of EuroFIR developed guidelines for compilation processes and how FCDB Compilers have implemented quality management frameworks.engComposição de AlimentosMateriais e Métodos de ReferênciaCertificaçãoCompiladoresThe EuroFIR Food Platform: Further integration, refinement and exploitation for its long-term self-sustainability - Final list of certified FCDB compiler organizations and future plans for continuation of the certification schemereport
