NEW INNOVATION HELPS TO MEET PARALLEL FOOD SAFETY REQUIREMENTS WITH ONE AUDIT Food manufacturers, ingredient suppliers and other players within the complex supply chains are often under pressure to satisfy various customer requirements. Complex supply chains can mean multiple, parallel requirements for suppliers and lead to duplicate systems, audits and paper work. Yet, there are many similarities in the requirements of most international food safety and quality standards. As the first certification body, SGS has developed a set of solutions that help to meet the requirements of most internationally recognized food safety or quality standard including ISO 22000, ISO 9001, HACCP, GMP, BRC and IFS with a single audit. The Single Food Audit Pack from SGS allows the construction of a single food safety and quality management systems. The audit results in a single audit report with a consolidated set of conclusions. SGS Single Food Audit Pack provides a cost-effective route to achieve quality and safety objectives through eliminating operational disruption and through cutting the costs associated with management of multiple systems. SGS Single Food Audit Pack contains multiple combinations of the ISO 22000, ISO 9001 and the various other international food safety standards, such as HACCP, GMP, BRC and IFS. “We have listened to our clients and heard their growing concern about how to effectively manage the multiple, often parallel requirements they face across the supply chains.
