Dairy Certification Services
We work along side the dairy industries in New Zealand and Australia helping customers meet the rising expectations of consumers worldwide and strict international standards. AsureQuality regularly audits food safety and inventory control processes to provide ongoing assurance to dairy customers of the programme's integrity.
We Provide the following independent assurance services
- Risk Management Programme (RMP) validation - ensures that the RMP is completed and meets the requirements of the APA and any relevant APA regulations and specifications.
- Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) / Pre-start assessments - some companies may request Pre-start or GMP Assessments prior to running on milk at the beginning of the new season, after a shutdown or after some significant change to the plant or process. These requests will be treated in the same way as any other audit request.
- GAP Analysis - dairy customers may request a “GAP” analysis of specific programmes to indicate the current status. GAP analysis assessments provide customers with a report highlighting errors and/or omissions in their programmes, enabling them to fill the “gaps”.
