Food production and service environment with compliance overlays
Built for NZ Primary Industries

NZ growers, processors, and exporters operate under a stack of overlapping obligations. Porticus is configured for all of them.

Every grower, processor, and exporter in New Zealand's primary industries operates under multiple overlapping obligations, and they're all connected. They share requirements, share evidence, and share risk. Yet most businesses are managing them as if they're completely separate.

Porticus is the only compliance platform purpose-built for MPI, NZGAP, the Food Act 2014, the Animal Products Act, and NZ's key export market frameworks.

Your compliance programme shouldn't start from scratch every audit season.

Every audit season, teams rebuild compliance programmes from scratch. It builds no equity for anyone - the work starts decaying the moment it's done. And with regulations, export requirements, and retailer standards changing faster than ever, what passed last year's audit may not pass next year's.

✗

Pace of Regulatory Change

Regulations, export requirements, and standards are changing faster than ever. What passed last year's audit may not pass next year's, and your business risks getting left behind.

✗

The Annual Reset Cycle

Every audit season, teams rebuild compliance programmes from scratch. It builds no equity. The work starts decaying the moment it's done.

✗

Disconnected Point Solutions

The same evidence gets uploaded four times to four different places, and nobody has a single view of where you actually stand. No cross-domain intelligence.

✗

No Platform Built for NZ

Global compliance tools aren't configured for MPI, NZGAP, or the specific requirements of NZ's export market frameworks. You end up bridging gaps manually.

Every segment of the food industry. Every jurisdiction.

Food compliance isn't one problem, it's many, layered on top of each other depending on where you operate and who you sell to. Porticus is built for the full spectrum.

Audits and inspections don't schedule themselves around your calendar.

HACCP, ISO 22000, BRC, IFS, GlobalG.A.P., organic certification, health inspections, WorkSafe NZ / HSWA, employment law, export health requirements, social audits - multiplied across every location, market, and jurisdiction you operate in. Porticus unifies them for global food businesses.

Multi-location map with location-specific food safety, organic, and employment requirements

Organic and premium certification: the most document-intensive compliance in food.

Organic certification requires continuous traceability-from seed and input records to harvest, processing, packaging, and export documentation. A single gap can cost you your certification. When you sell into multiple markets, those requirements multiply: EU Organic, USDA NOP, Soil Association (UK), ACO (Australia), and BioGro (NZ) all have distinct requirements that partially overlap but diverge on inputs, record formats, and audit trails.

Porticus maps your organic obligations per certification body and market, generates audit-ready evidence packages, and continuously monitors for input changes or process deviations that could jeopardise certification status.

Chain-of-custody traceability

From input and seed records through to finished goods and export documentation. Every certification body's traceability requirement, mapped and maintained.

Multi-body certification management

EU Organic, USDA NOP, Soil Association, ACO, BioGro-tracked side-by-side with shared evidence where requirements overlap.

Audit preparation in days, not weeks

AI-generated evidence packages aligned to each certification body's audit checklist, produced on demand.

Deviation monitoring

Continuous monitoring for input substitutions, process changes, or contamination risks that could trigger non-conformance.

One record satisfies many frameworks. Porticus finds the overlaps.

Across food service, production, growing, and export, the same activity - a pesticide application, a seasonal worker induction, a temperature log - satisfies obligations in four or five different frameworks simultaneously. Porticus maps those relationships so you collect evidence once.

The more requirements you add, the less work each one takes.

This is the core economic difference between Porticus and every other approach. When your first programme is in the system, every programme you add after it costs less. Because Porticus already knows what you've done and automatically maps the overlap.

35–55%

Controls in your Food Act FCP already satisfied by your NZGAP programme

40–60%

Less total effort to achieve compliance with each additional framework you add

n×

A single evidence upload satisfies multiple programmes simultaneously

Preparing for one audit builds readiness for the next.

Porticus calculates your cross-framework readiness in real time - based on your actual evidence and controls, updated continuously, not rebuilt each season.

MPI Food Control Plan

ISO 2200058% ready
HACCP Certification52% ready

NZGAP On-Farm Audit

GLOBALG.A.P.45% ready
ISO 1400138% ready

WorkSafe NZ Programme

ISO 4500162% ready
ACC Accreditation44% ready

Every standard you add to Porticus costs less time and effort than the last - because every audit you pass has already partially done the work for the next one.

Every export market has its own rules. Know them all.

Exporting food or organic produce to the EU, UK, US, Australia, or New Zealand means navigating a different compliance stack for each market-different labelling rules, different organic standards, different import authority requirements, different social compliance expectations. Porticus tracks obligation changes in real time across all your live markets.

For Compliance Consultants

Your expertise shouldn't have to start over every audit season.

The work you do setting up a client's FCP, RMP, or NZGAP programme is the most valuable thing you deliver. With Porticus, that work stays alive between visits - the controls you mapped, the evidence you structured, the overlaps you identified all remain current and actionable in a platform your clients use every day.

Choose the model that fits your practice: white-label Porticus under your own brand, run it as a back-office managed service with your margins on top, or earn referral fees. If you manage 15 food safety clients and spend 30% of your time on annual re-setup work, Porticus reclaims roughly 4–5 clients' worth of capacity - freeing you to price on value delivered, not hours spent.

What changes for your practice:

  • ✓Flexible partnership models. White-label Porticus under your own brand, run it as a managed service with your margins on top, or earn referral fees. You choose how it fits your practice
  • ✓Lower your cost to serve each client. The re-setup work that eats your margins handles itself - giving you capacity for more clients or deeper advisory work at the same headcount
  • ✓Move from time-and-materials to value-based pricing. When your expertise stays permanent between audits, clients pay for outcomes, not hours - and your revenue per client grows
  • ✓Shift reclaimed time to higher-value advisory: interpreting regulatory changes, guiding corrective actions, expanding client compliance footprints
