Northwest Analytics announces a new video that summarizes The Compliant Food Safety Management System webinar series. In these webinars industry experts explain how food manufacturers can meet regulations such as the Food Safety Modernization Act and industry standards such as ISO 22000 and GFSI. The video is posted at: http://bit.ly/jiUR8t.

Food Processing, Distribution and Service must deal with increasingly rigorous regulatory and commercial requirements as commercial supply chains come under standards such as ISO 22000 and major customers require compliance with Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) audit schema. Food commerce in the EU has required a HACCP based food safety management system since 2006 and, with the Food Safety Modernization Act; similar requirements are now the law of the land in the U.S.

This webinar series explains how to design reasonable strategies to deal with these issues and dependably produce safe food while protecting the company’s brand. Topics addressed in this series include: 

  • Defining the current regulatory, commercial and market landscape for food manufacturers and present a comprehensive strategy for brand protection.
  • The proper mix of process control and audit in a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) to optimize food safety, quality and productivity.
  • Implications of ISO 22000, GFSI and other commercial and regulatory standards for FSMS design and implementation.
  • How to use audits in the process improvement process.
  • How to actively use Quality Information Systems and analytics to reduce risk and increase compliance.
