Conformance with food safety standards throughout the supply chain is now a fact of doing business. Certification standards targeting farms, facilities, and retailers – SQF, GLOBALG.A.P, BRC, ISO 22000, FSC 22000, Harmonized Good Agricultural Practice (GAP), and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) – all provide guidance to help companies and customers steer clear of food safety crises. Dig deeper, however, and you’ll discover one key factor often overlooked– namely, auditor competence. Ultimately, it’s up to the auditor to interpret the standard’s intent during the farm or facility assessment.
