Frequently Asked Questions - GMP Consultant in Chicago

What are Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in food?

GMPs are the minimum sanitary and processing requirements for producing safe food. In Canada, GMPs are required under SFCR (Schedule 1) and include requirements for personnel hygiene, facility design, equipment maintenance, sanitation, pest control, and water quality. In the USA, GMPs are codified in 21 CFR Part 117.

Is GMP certification a separate certification from HACCP?

GMP is a prerequisite program (PRP) that underpins HACCP - not a separate certification. However, compliance with GMPs is assessed during CFIA inspections, HACCP audits, and GFSI certification audits. Strong GMP programs are the foundation of every successful food safety certification.

How does Iyarkai assess our GMP compliance?

We conduct a comprehensive on-site GMP inspection using regulatory checklists (CFIA, FDA 21 CFR 117, and GFSI-specific GMP requirements). We document every deficiency with photographs, assign risk ratings, and produce a prioritized corrective action plan.

What GMP training do you provide?

We offer role-specific GMP training: plant management (understanding regulatory obligations), production staff (personal hygiene, SOP compliance), sanitation staff (chemical safety, cleaning verification), and quality personnel (internal GMP auditing).
