FOOD SAFETY PLANNING
Transition seamlessly from food safety planning to on-site implementation
Our Preventive Controls Qualified Individuals (PCQI), certified in both human and animal food, can audit your existing plan or write a new plan to establish:
Staff Roles and Responsibilities
Facility and Product Overview
Pre-Requisite Programs
A Hazard Analysis
Process Flow Diagrams
Critical Control Points & Preventative Controls
Recall Plans and Mock Exercises
Once a food safety plan is in place, implementation is equally important. We assist with verification documents, employee training, and the creation of a record management system to make the transition from plan to execution more seamless.
ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
Identify where to check for contamination or unsafe conditions
An environmental monitoring program verifies a facility's master sanitation program. The seek and destroy method is an integral part of controlling the spread of pathogens across the facility. It seeks out environments within the plant the pathogen is known to live and destroys that environment to prevent continued growth. We can help you establish a comprehensive program.
+ Site maps
+ Routine swabbing sites
+ Corrective & Preventative Action Procedures
+ Employee training
FOOD DEFENSE PLANS
Keep your product safe from tampering
Food processors are now required to comply with FSMA Food Defense Regulations. These FDA-mandated rules to prevent intentional adulteration require a food defense plan to be written, managed, and updated at least every three years by a Food Defense Qualified Individual (FDQI). Our FDQI staff will conduct vulnerability assessments to identify significant vulnerabilities during each step of your manufacturing process. Mitigation strategies will then be developed based upon the findings.
FOOD QUALITY PLANS
Deliver consistent product quality and boost customer loyalty
An often overlooked, yet critical, tool to achieving more consistent product is a Food Quality Plan which identifies factors that can potentially impact quality, such as operating procedures, equipment performance, and environmental conditions. As a manufacturer, the Food Quality Plan can serve as a basis for training. It also provides your team with tools to quickly recognize, evaluate, and correct out-of-specification product.
COMPLIANCE FOOD SAFETY AUDIT
Assess systems before problems emerge and always be audit ready
Proactively assessing your food safety protocols helps identify gaps before problems emerge and prepares you for regulatory reviews. Our compliance audits are collaborative and involve meetings with key team members. While on site, we will:
+ Review Food Safety Plan or HACCP documentation
+ Verify Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and Preventive Controls (PC) or Critical Control Points (CCP)
+ Inspect storage, processing, and packaging areas for nonconformances
+ Work with site management to identify corrective and preventive actions
