Third-Party Audits

ASI Food Safety Consultants offers audits for food processing plants, non-food processing plants, distribution centers, grocery and retail facilities, hotel and commercial kitchens and others. The emphasis for each audit is based on the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) established in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 21 part 110, the Federal Food Code of 2001, the National Advisory Committee on the Microbiological Criteria in Foods, and the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act. Additional questions are based on the federal requirements for HACCP and standard operating procedures (9 CFR 416, 9 CFR 417, 21 CFR 120 and 21 CFR 123). Requirements for allergen control and detection of physical hazards are based on the Compliance Policy Guides from the FDA. Requirements for proper storage and handling of organic foods are based on the Organic Act of 2002 from the USDA. Pest control requirements are based on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

These audits can be announced or unannounced, and involve a review of quality systems and records, pest control operational methods and personnel practices, maintenance and repair, and housekeeping and sanitation practices. These audits provide an excellent method for training associates, and for achieving and maintaining a world-class organization.
