Is it required in ISO 22k to have separate records detailing the activates of Validation and \ or Verification , for example a Verification plan, is it a FORM that needs to be filled for each hazarded or is it a Procedure?
Thanks.

Dear Mahmoud,

I presume you are referring to section 8 of iso 22000.

Firstly, I recommend you to obtain iso 22004. This contains a large section expanding and explaining section8 of iso 22000.

I am not myself a user of iso 22000 but it is clear that the VA/VE procedures, monitoring etc will need to cover the typical HACCP requirements (or, more accurately, the iso-modified HACCP) plus the additional (MS) part which I guess is aligned in many ways to the ISO 9001 standard (see the comparative table at end of standard iso 22000.)

The items you mention in previous post do cover some of the VE requirements if that was your (unstated) question but are not yet, i think, fully comprehensive, eg I see no mention of calibration. Further requirements are given in 22004.

There are also very likely some other discussions on this subject in this forum, try searching within the iso 22000 forum.

This thread gives some detailed auditorial info but mainly prior to section 8

Thank you Charles :)

Dear Mahmoud,


As I understand from your question, you have asked whether there are requirements in ISO 22K to have records of validation and verification activities.

I hope you understand that terms validation and verification are not interchangeable. Now comes to your question: The answer is "Partially Yes". There is requirement of having record(s) of verification activities (Ref. 7.8 of ISO 22K) but AFAIK there is no straightforward requirement of having record of validation activities in ISO 22K.

However it is a good practice to make and keep validation records as it helps you in future validation and re-validation activities and it also helps you to show the auditor how you had performed validation and what were the results.

Verification Plan is a document; it only guides you about method, frequency and responsibilities of verification activities. The results of activities (that is records) are some thing entirely different.

BTW, there is another relevant thread you should go through::

http://www.ifsqn.com...hl=verification

Added:: It seems you have copy-paste your verification plan from a file of Word or Excel. Due to which it looks some messy. It will be useful or helpful for members if you attach or upload that file here.

Hi, there

There is a resource that can be purchased from ISO:

http://www.iso.org/i.../checklists.htm

The booklet itself is a bit weak in terms of guidance much like ISO 22004, because it wa both written too soon, especially if one has ISO 9004 expectations, but the CD-rom which is much like a 22K audit, with recommenations has been a great help.

I excerpted the Validation and Verification in 22K context
