eBacMap provides a cloud‑based platform for organizing environmental testing data and managing responses to non‑conforming results. Users can visualize pathogen hotspots on fully customizable facility maps, replacing paper notes and scattered spreadsheets, which helps labs track trends, reduce exposure, and cut operational costs. The system streamlines team workflows and enables data‑driven decisions to improve environmental pathogen management.

Problem
Food and other regulated manufacturers must track environmental pathogen testing results to meet safety regulations, but they often rely on paper notes and disparate spreadsheets, making it hard to see where and when contaminations occur. This fragmented approach slows corrective actions, increases exposure risk, and can lead to costly product recalls.
Solution
eBacMap delivers a cloud‑based platform that centralizes environmental testing data and visualizes it on fully customizable facility maps. Users can map each swab result, generate heat‑maps of contamination hotspots, and view weekly or monthly trend dashboards to identify recurring issues. The system automatically notifies designated team members when non‑conforming results are recorded, including photos of sampling sites to aid communication across shifts and languages. Unlimited facilities and users are supported under a single subscription, eliminating the need for external consultants or costly software add‑ons. Built by food microbiologists, the tool aligns with FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act requirements for monitoring pathogen persistence and verifying sanitation controls.
Target Audience
Primary customers are food, beverage, and other regulated manufacturers that conduct routine environmental pathogen testing, as well as their sanitation, quality assurance, and production teams responsible for corrective actions.
