  2. All food product schemes. ISO/IEC Guide 65:1996. JAS-ANZ accreditation. Overview – SQF, BRC, GG

  3. Overview – SQF, BRC, GG • GlobalGAP • More than 94,000 certified producers in 100 countries. • Holistic approach to farm assurance. • 4 options (Options 1 & 2 primarily used).

  4. Overview – SQF, BRC, GG • GlobalGAP • GlobalGAP = Global Good Agricultural Practices • New sub-scopes: Turkey, Tilapia, Pangasius, Shrimp, Calves/Young Beef • module. • On-farm production process to deliver safe food. • Certification Integrity Program (CIPRO) – office, witness • assessments. • Brand Integrity Program (BIPRO) – contract, logo, database.. • Options 1 & 3 – Inspectors; Option 2 & 4 – Auditor.

  5. Overview – SQF, BRC, GG • BRC • BRC = British Retail Consortium. • Over 14,000 certificates in more than 30 countries. • KPI reporting. • Processing – Food, Packaging (Both based on HACCP), Consumer • Products and Storage & Distribution . • New: Security guidelines (Retailers).

  6. Overview – SQF, BRC, GG • SQF • SQF = Safe Quality Food. • Over 4,257 certificates in more than 30 countries. • New: 6th edition criteria for CB’s released September 2009. • New: 5th edition for SQF1000 released September 2009. • New: Ethical sourcing module (Not currently accredited). • Based on HACCP principles.

  7. Scheme Focus • Scheme origination reflected in certificate concentration

  8. Certificates – PAC Region

  10. Certificates – Largest outside PAC

  11. Certificates – Largest outside PAC continued…

  12. SQF - 117% growth in last 12 months. GG – benchmarking so opportunities for much growth. BRC and SQF are working on FSSC 22000 similar scheme. FSSC 22000 is a food safety management system. BRC working on entering the North American market. Growth Opportunities

  13. Accreditation Bodies

  14. Accreditation Bodies

  15. Accreditation Bodies

  16. Accreditation Bodies

  17. Accreditation Bodies • Only 5 out of 33 AB’s have all three schemes.

  18. Auditor registration Must register with scheme owner (SQFI, GG, BRC) prior to auditing in scheme. CB must have fully assessed auditor first. Certification Body registration All CB’s must have a license agreement with an AB and the scheme owner ie. BRC, SQFI or GlobalGAP. Scheme Monitoring

  19. Certification Body gradings (KPI Reporting) Full KPI report for CB every 6 months. Individual and overall colour code rating (Green, Amber, Red). 5 KPI’s Report Quality Protocol (Compliance eg. Gradings, scope, duration, std…..) Auditor registration Directory (Uploading reports, directory information) Commitment/Communication (Attendance of BRC conference, CB meetings..) Scheme Monitoring - BRC

  20. Grade Consequences Individual and overall GREEN grade – no further action. Individual or overall AMBER grade – no requirement for formal report to BRC. Individual RED grade – Report with corrective actions submitted to BRC (10 working days). May also result in increased frequency of surveillance. Overall RED grade – full report with corrective actions to BRC (10 working days); Accreditation Body notified. Consecutive RED grade – may result in suspension. Scheme Monitoring - BRC

  21. Scheme monitoring - GlobalGAP • Certification Body Sanctions

  22. Scheme monitoring - GlobalGAP • Certification Body Sanctions • CIPRO reporting – combination of office and witness assessments. • Yellow and red cards issued to CB’s published on GG web-site. • AB’s work with GG on these assessments.

  23. Scheme monitoring - SQF • Certification Body gradings • SQFI works with two Accreditation Bodies – JAS-ANZ and ANSI. • Reporting is with the AB’s however some joint assessments are • conducted. • JAS-ANZ gradings: Major nonconformity, minor NCR, observations.

  24. Technical • Scoping – BRC (Food) • Categories 1- 4 (Raw products – red meat, poultry, fish & vegetable). • Categories 5 – 6 (Fruit, vegetables & nuts). • Category 7 (Processed dairy, liquid egg). • Category 8 (Cooked meat/fish products). • Category 9 (Raw, cured, fermented meat/fish products). • Category 10 (Ready meals & sandwiches; RTE desserts). • Category 11 (Low/high acid in cans/glass). • Category 12 (Beverages). • Category 13 (Alcoholic drinks & fermented/brewed products). • Category 14 (Bakery). • Category 15 (Dried food & ingredients). • Category 16 (Confectionery). • Category 17 (Cereals & snacks). • Category 18 (Oils & fats).

  25. Technical • Scoping – BRC (Packaging) • Field 1 (Glass). • Field 2 (Paper). • Field 3 (Metals). • Field 4 (Plastics). • Field 5 (Wood & other materials). • Scoping – BRC (Storage & distribution) • Field 1 (Chilled & frozen food). • Field 2 (Ambient food). • Field 3 (Consumer products & packaging materials).

  26. Technical • Scoping - GlobalGAP

  27. Technical • Scoping - SQF • Food Sector Categories specific to SQF1000 (1-29) – primary producers. • Food Sector Categories specific to SQF2000 (1-35) - processing. • Food sector categories for non food applications (27, 30, 32, 33) • ie. Packaging, sanitation & hygiene services, fertiliser manufacture, • agricultural chemicals & food processing aides. • Full description of categories in hand-out provided.

  28. Technical • Competencies • Education • Work experience • Qualifications • Audit training • Maintaining audit experience …….. • Details in hand-out provided

  29. Technical • Reporting/Other Timeframes • Refer to hand-out provided for some details.

  30. Technical • Audit Duration - BRC • No specific requirements but must be sufficient to evaluate • all BRC requirements. Typically 1.5 days however and at least half must be • in facility. • Justification of any variances from typical audit duration must • be documented. • Consideration of seasonal and products representative of scope are • being manufactured among many other factors listed. • Time taken shall be documented on report.

  31. Technical • Audit Duration – GlobalGAP • Registered product must be present on farm during audit. • No specific requirements however duration must be sufficient • to demonstrate process and appropriate factors considered.

  32. Technical • Audit Duration - SQF • CB requirements 6th edition clause 10.2. • Consideration of factors eg. Size, complexity of operation, high risk • products/high risk processes, degree of organisation of supplier and • number of locations. • “The Certification Body shall be prepared to justify or substantiate • the amount of time spent on any Certification Audit, Surveillance • Audit or Re-certification Audit”.

  33. Technical • Scheme Specific Grading - BRC • Critical nonconformity - suspend • Major nonconformity • Minor nonconformity • Timeframe for closure depends on number of each NCR (Generally 28 working days • for objective evidence to close. • Number & type of NCR’s impacts audit frequency and overall organisation rating ie. • A, B, C, D. • Grade A or B – annual audit frequency. • Grade C – 6 month audit frequency & revisit. • Grade D – certification not granted and re-audit required.

  34. Technical • Scheme Specific Grading - GlobalGAP • Major must NCR - 100% compliance. • Minor must NCR – 95% compliance. • Recommendations - 100% must be inspected.

  35. Technical • Scheme Specific Grading - SQF • Critical nonconformance – suspension (Refer Annex 1). • Major nonconformance – 14 days. • Minor nonconformance – 30 days or by next audit. • Observation – opportunity for improvement.

  36. Certification or recertification facility audits: Auditor to spend ~80% of time in the facility including auditing processing, storage, packaging and formulation areas within the facility, the exterior of the facility, interviewing key personnel within the facility and on-floor or in-process record review (Not report writing). All critical and major nonconformances must be closed in a document review prior to moving to a facility review. Minor nonconformances must be closed prior to finalisation of facility audit in certification. 2 witness audits for new auditors. New requirements for CB’s - SQF

  37. Calibration for existing auditors. Compliance activities by SQFI. Reporting timeframes (Refer to Table). Justification for rating must be given for each question or section. New requirements for CB’s - SQF

  38. Site security (Clause 4.7). Identity preserved foods (4.8). SQF Practitioner (8.2.1) has to be employee of the company. SQF expert (8.2.1) credentials removed to ensure management of program under Senior management supervision. Auditor must verify SQF practitioner during on-site audit. New requirements SQF2000

  39. Audit duration table submitted for final review which will give guidelines for document review and facility audit timeframes. Guidance Document for Brokers (FSC 35) Recent Additions of Guidance Documents or modules Produce Packing House (FSC 4) Shell Eggs (FSC 12) Transport & Distribution (FSC 25 & 26) Packaging (FSC 27) Ethical Sourcing module Recent additions & Coming - SQF
