Food safety plans built around the operation.

Discuss your products, processes and existing plan to determine the appropriate PCQI or HACCP advisory scope.

Who it is for

Food businesses that need help with a food safety plan or hazard analysis, or that are unsure whether a PCQI-related or HACCP approach applies to their products and processes.

Two kinds of work, described separately

Which one applies depends on the product, the process and the regulation. Applicability is confirmed in discussion, not assumed.

PCQI-related work

  • Discussion of whether preventive controls requirements apply
  • Review of an existing food safety plan against the agreed scope
  • Documentation support

HACCP advisory

  • Discussion of whether a HACCP approach applies
  • Advisory on hazard analysis and control points for your process
  • Documentation support

Required inputs

  • Products

    What you make or import, and how it is described.

  • Processes

    How the product is handled, prepared or packed.

  • Existing plan

    Any food safety plan or hazard analysis you already have.

Exclusions

  • No outcome guarantee

    No promise of an inspection result or regulatory outcome.

  • Scope first

    Work outside the agreed scope is explained before it is accepted.

Technical training behind this work

The technical foundation behind Clearance includes completed training in FSPCA Preventive Controls for Human Food, Version 2.0, and in HACCP Plan Development. Clearance confirms in discussion which approach applies to your products and processes, and sets the scope of any engagement in writing.
