Contact Us TodayHamilton's position as a steel town turned food manufacturing corridor — with major bakery, beverage, and further-processing plants along the QEW — makes PCP work here mostly about scale: multi-line facilities where the hazard analysis has to cover distinct processes without collapsing into a generic document. CFIA verifies PCPs against what's actually happening on the floor, so the plan has to match reality line by line.
Yes — one plan per establishment is normal, but the hazard analysis must address each process separately where hazards differ (e.g., a ready-to-eat line needs environmental Listeria monitoring a baked-goods line may not). We structure multi-line PCPs so each line's controls stay auditable.
Monitoring records that don't match the written plan, verification activities described but never performed, corrective actions without root-cause follow-through, and traceability tests that can't actually reconcile a lot. Our PCP builds include a records system your staff will really use.
