Good
Manufacturing Practices (GMPs)
Good
Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) are required by 21 CFR 100. This audit
focuses on preventing contamination and minimizing errors. Areas of
inspection include record keeping, personnel practices, equipment
maintenance, sanitation, procedures, and complaint policies.
Third
party food safety audits began more than fifty years ago to prepare
food manufacturers and distributors for a possible FDA inspection.
These audits have evolved into certifying vendors or suppliers at a
certain level of food safety. Food retailers or manufacturers now
require a third party food safety audit from their vendors.
ASI is the leader in Food Safety audits. Owners of the family run ASI
have been conducting audits for three generations. Developing
exceptional client relationships and providing the highest quality of
technical expertise remains the key difference of working with ASI.
