HACCP - ISO 9001/2000
1. HACCP

WHAT IS HACCP ??
HACCP is a pro-active process control system by which food quality is ensured. This system has been adopted by many countries around the world and is mandatory in some countries.
Acumen's experts are able to assist companies design and implement HACCP systems as well as provide training for their staff.

The HACCP process consists of:
  • Hazard Analysis,
  • Identifying Critical Control Points (CCP),
  • Establishing Critical Limits for each CCP,
  • Monitoring CCP requirements and using the data gathered to effectively control processes,
  • Corrective Action,
  • Record keeping,
  • Verification.
The ISO 9000 standards (Quality Assurance) provide an excellent framework for the inclusion of the HACCP principles and an ongoing basis for continual improvement. Monitoring, corrective actions, recording keeping and verification requirements are already contained within ISO 9000. Adding hazard analysis and CCP's to the quality system is relatively simple.
