(2) Information systems of various departments and ministries as well as Big Data Analytics. TFDA
utilized cloud connections for the food industry and established links between eight systems
under four ministries and 25 dashboards of six major categories. For oil products, connections
were established to the Feed Oil Reporting System of the Executive Yuan Council of
Agriculture, the Declaration System for Production Factories for the Manufacturing or Importing
of General Industrial Oil of the Central Region Of?ce of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA),
and the Waste Declaration System-Waste Edible Oil of the Executive Yuan Environmental
Protection Administration in order to integrate and articulate declaration systems of various
ministries to the Food Business Registration Platform. Transaction records and information of
various oil products such as sales or purchasing counterparties, amount declared, date of
declaration, and purpose of use were compared against each other. Statistical analysis tools
was used in order to build risk models for each route and generate a recommended list of
top businesses that should undergo audits as part of the government's active measures for
traceability management of oil products (Figure 2-6-1). In the current phase, food products
were established as a risk control model which would be further expanded to include
management of medicinal products and medical devices.
