Part of Fix It Fridays, Kiwa ASI's free 2027 webinar series: solving the Most Common Food Safety Audit Findings.
Not another standards-reading webinar: one real-world problem, why it happens and what to do differently.
Every Fix It Fridays webinar is free.
What this 60-minute session covers.
Replacing the pre-audit scramble with a plan that runs all year.
Scheduling and scoping internal audits around risk.
Choosing measures that show how the system is really performing.
Making sure findings stay closed.
Giving leaders the information, and the ownership, to act.
Sharing responsibility across QA, operations, maintenance and sanitation.
Seeing the patterns behind repeat problems.
Building habits that keep the system improving between audits.
What changes when readiness is part of normal operations.
Many certification schemes include unannounced audits, so readiness that depends on a scheduled date is a risk in itself.
A burst of activity in the weeks before the audit: records are completed, the plant is deep-cleaned and procedures are reviewed. Conditions often slip again afterward, which is how findings repeat.
The system produces audit-ready conditions as part of normal work: internal audits on a risk-based schedule, KPIs and trends reviewed regularly, corrective actions verified, and leaders reviewing performance and acting on it.
Anyone responsible for facility audit readiness, including:
Six free, live online webinars in 2027, each tackling one common food safety problem: why it happens and what to do differently. See all free webinars.
Move beyond checklists to risk-based, process-focused internal audits.
Find the real root cause and stop repeat findings.
Control the food safety risks that maintenance work introduces.
Turn environmental monitoring data into contamination prevention.
Strengthen cleaning, verification and continuous improvement.
Bring it all together: continuous audit readiness, all year.
