FAQ: Food & beverage QMS
A food and beverage quality management system is a comprehensive platform that streamlines business processes and is focused on ensuring product/service quality that meets or exceeds customer requirements. Because there are many sectors of the food and beverage industry – from the farm to the retailer – quality management looks different depending on the sector where a business produces.
Overall, food and beverage quality focuses on protecting consumer health by avoiding food contamination. This could take many forms, such as proper storage after harvesting, maintaining specific conditions during processing or safe handling at the point of sale.
Several regulations govern the food production and supply chain, and many differ from country to country. In the United States, most common regulations are put forth in the Food and Drug Administration’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), which focuses on preventing foodborne illness in human and animal foods. Though not a law, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) is a system that addresses food safety through the analysis and control of biological, chemical and physical hazards. It is often used to meet regulatory requirements and is mandatory for the control of certain food products in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the European Union.
Safe Quality Food (SQF) standards address food safety from every aspect, including agriculture and delivery. The requirements are used as part of the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) certification program required by many retailers and food manufacturers in order for them to purchase your product.

QT9 covers all your need for GFSI audits. Very nice connection between the documents database, training and maintenance functions. Great price structure where you pay by number of simultaneous access. Nice to manage multi-sites of small sizes.

I have been involved in choosing, implementing and using other Quality Management Systems and this has been by far the best experience. This system has made documentation management of training records to rev controlled SOP's a breeze. The Supplier portal is a great feature. They provide solid training and are very responsive when you have questions.
