HACCP Plan Development

  • Critical Control Point (CCP) determination
  • Critical limits & monitoring procedures
  • Corrective action procedures
  • Verification procedures

HACCP Audit & Certification Support

Preparing for your HACCP certification audit, we provide support with:

  • Pre-audit gap assessments
  • Internal audit simulations
  • Documentation review
  • Corrective action planning
  • On-site audit support
  • Post-audit corrective action assistance

Our goal: predictable, confident certification outcomes.

Companies we’ve worked with to enhance their food safety programs.

HACCP Plan Validation

A HACCP plan must be scientifically defensible.

We support:

  • Critical limit validation
  • Thermal process validation (where applicable)
  • Scientific justification documentation
  • Review of supporting technical evidence
  • Regulatory defensibility review

Validation ensures your plan stands up during certification or inspection.

HACCP Reassessment & Upgrades

HACCP plans must be reassessed:

  • Annually
  • After process changes
  • After new product introductions
  • Following incidents or recalls

We perform structured reassessments and update your plan to reflect operational reality.
