AFME GMP Engineering Assurance Pack

A practical engineering GMP assurance system for food manufacturers. It helps engineering teams check that maintenance behaviours, tools, parts, temporary repairs, workshops, stores, equipment condition, building fabric, utilities, contractors, hygienic design and engineering handback consistently protect product from contamination. Supports readiness for BRCGS and SQF; not a certification audit.
