Unless your facility is a USDA shop, then it most likely falls under FSMA regulations, which for the vast majority of processors is the law of the land. If you haven’t yet been visited by FDA for an audit, it is past time to get ready for that inevitable moment. I asked Ib Elandaloussi (CAL), Food and Consumer Products Group with Burns and McDonnell to talk briefly about designing facility solutions to meet FSMA rules.
Elandaloussi specializes in food safety at Burns & McDonnell, including developing and implementing complete food safety systems for food manufacturers. His experience includes not only determining areas of non-conformance, but also prioritizing and designing cost-effective solutions for clients to become FSMA compliant.
