FAIRFAX, Va., Dec. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- InfinityQS International, Inc., the global authority on real-time quality and Manufacturing Intelligence, announces it has secured its fourth consecutive spot on Food Logistics' FL100+ annual list of software and technology providers. For more than a decade, the editors of Food Logistics have profiled those companies that hold influential roles in the global food and beverage supply chain. Their products benefit the industry in multiple ways, from reducing food waste and extending shelf life, to facilitating safe and sanitary transportation of product while assuring regulatory compliance.

"The impact of software and technology on the global food supply chain is truly profound," said Lara L. Sowinski, editor-in-chief at Food Logistics. "Software solution providers, equipment manufacturers and numerous technology innovations are supporting growth in our industry while concurrently lowering operating costs, improving productivity and enhancing visibility from farm to fork."

Indeed, the robust activity in the software and technology sector relative to the global food and beverage supply chain prompted Food Logistics to expand the list this year and rename it as the FL100+.

"The FL100+ allows us to accommodate and showcase the growing number of companies active in this space," Sowinski added. "Equally important, our readers benefit from the goal of the FL100+, which is to ultimately serve as a resource guide for our audience."

InfinityQS' Manufacturing Intelligence platform, ProFicient, offers global food and beverage manufacturers an easy-to-use software solution that ensures regulatory compliance of operations and traceability of products and raw materials. Its cloud-based deployment and mobile data collection options create flexible accessibility for mangers and operators at any location worldwide, including supplier facilities. ProFicient can also analyze and report on trends in quality data, Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and acceptance sampling across the enterprise to promote continuous improvement.

Michael Lyle, president and CEO, InfinityQS, said, "Food and beverage manufacturers make it a priority to ensure their products meet the highest level of quality and safety standards set forth by regulatory organizations. However, the data acquired during mandatory quality checks, compliance audits, incoming inspections or supplier collaboration are rarely used to the fullest extent. Understanding the true value of these data through technology can help manufacturers employ smart strategies to improve product quality and supply chain efficiency."

Companies who earned a spot on the FL100+ list are featured in the November/December 2014 issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com.
