Good news for the world of kashrut: The Ministry of Religious Services has developed a kashrut app for kashrut supervisors and inspectors, who are responsible for the supervision and supervision of factories, restaurants, and food stores.

In Israel, speeding is the norm: Why do we drive fast?

The person behind the development is Lior Ashkenazi, Senior Director of the Information Systems and Cyber ​​Division at the Ministry of Religious Services - who signed the development of the 'Sea Service' system, together with Shlomi Abulafia, Director of Technology at the ministry.

The application creates interfaces between the kashrut supervisor and kashrut inspector and the kashrut department manager, through which reports are received from the field in real time.

The new system allows support for the regular operation of the kashrut system, management of the process of opening a file for a business, management of communications with regulated businesses, issuance of kashrut certificates (physical and digital) - including special kashrut for Passover, collection of fees, and interfacing with a marriage model.

In addition, there is management and supervision of supervisor reports - viewing supervisor reports, including activity reports and attendance reports based on GPS, entry/exit, supervisor reports on kashrut malfunctions, viewing work plans, an interface between the supervisor and the supervisor and between the supervisor and the department manager and the kashrut provider.

There is also a business kosher portal that displays the business's digital kosher certificate and more.

Rabbi Hizkiyahu Samin, director of the Kosher Marriage and Rabbinic Division at the Ministry of Religious Services, who headed the team that characterized the system, said: "Rabbi Yaakov Sabag, Rabbi Rafael Yochai and Rabbi Pinchas Adria from the Kashrut Division of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel were partners in the characterization work. Alongside the managers of the Kashrut dispute in the religious councils, Rabbi Shimon Batat, Rabbi Daniel Peretz, Rabbi Meir Sekat and Rabbi Vardiel Levy - who made a significant contribution from their experience and extensive knowledge to the characterization of the system.".

Over the weekend, the system won an award in the Digital Transformations and Innovation category for 2020 by ITAWARDS, which was awarded to Lior Ashkenazi, Senior Director of the Information Systems and Cyber ​​Division at the Ministry of Religious Services, Rabbi Hizkiyahu Samin, Director of the Religious Services, Marriage, Kosher and Rabbinic Division, and Linoi Hadar - the system developer.
