AFME Engineering Food Safety Assurance Audit Pack – BRCGS / SQF Alignment
A structured method for auditing the engineering controls that affect food safety, legality, quality and certification readiness. Aligned to engineering expectations in GFSI-recognised schemes such as BRCGS Food Safety and SQF, it helps engineering departments find weaknesses before external or customer audits. It is an independent AFME tool, not an official certification audit. Which to use: this is the full, scored audit. For a quick pre-audit walk-round use FSC-01 Engineering BRCGS Audit Readiness Pack.
