The company was founded in 2007 and developed from the realization that the BevTrac team could make a significant impact on the wine industry in several areas. First, we designed and then subsequently had a Mobile Laboratory manufactured to conduct state-of-the-art analytical and microbiological testing onsite for wineries. This puts BevTrac in the unique position of being the first independent company to conduct laboratory testing onsite and the first mobile laboratory in the industry.
Second, our expertise in the area of Wine Microbiology allows us to offer comprehensive reviews of our clients facilities to troubleshoot and remedy microbiological concerns (i.e. Brettanomyces). We are the only company in the industry to offer such robust microbiological troubleshooting and remediation options.
Third, the BevTrac team's experience and expertise in the area of Winery Sanitation, which was developed over the course of years, gives us the ability to provide our customers with numerous options including onsite sanitation assessments, program development and implementation, monitoring, and solutions. With our sanitation expertise, wineries can significantly reduce the chance of microbial contamination issues and increase product quality.
Fourth, with our experience and expertise developing and implementing Quality Systems (i.e. International Organization of Standards (ISO), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP)) in a winery environment, we can provide wineries with the ability to produce wine products that are of high quality and purity and are safe for the consumer.
Finally, we can offer wineries proven Continuous Improvement and Problem Solving techniques (i.e. Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing) to put themselves ahead of its competitors. Using these techniques will provide wineries with the opportunity to optimize quality and operating efficiencies throughout the winemaking process, eliminate process defects, and reduce the chance of product downgrades and rework.
The BevTrac team recognizes that wineries are in the business of making, marketing and selling wine, not developing laboratory methods, quality systems, and optimizing processes.
