Dear All,

Hi,
Its basically the same food safety matrix generally applied in assessing potential hazards in ingredients PLUS ++++++ i.e.other supply chain selection criteria on issues such as supply chain bio-security program, packaging specs. etc

Dear Zapate,

Ah!, the notorious BRC risk assessment again. This has a variety of acceptable practical interpretations ranging from the super-complex to the mundane. The preferred option may depend on yr specific product-process situation, eg fish, vegetables, RTE etc. There are several quite detailed official schemes already presented on this forum, most of which lead to an appropriate sampling frequency based on a menu of standardised (risk oriented) questions.

If you wish to do it on yr own, I can suggest a basic, Two-Stage Procedure –

(1) Initial Evaluation of Suitability via a minimum menu of, for example, (a) possession of appropriate cetifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 22000, other GFSI approved standards (b) satisfactory audit, © satisfactory product specifications, (d) satisfactory samples

(2) Operational Evaluation of Suitability via (a) use of supplier grading procedure based on overall, time-based, eg monthly, average defect levels, eg 1%, 3%, 5% lot rejections, (b) a subsidiary evaluation / corrective action procedure within (a) prioritised on HACCP safety aspects, eg safety/non-safety factors.

The above basic format has been utilised by organisations for many years in different ways.

Elements 3.6.2 - .3.6.4 can be included within this overall scheme.

PS BTW, Welcome to the Forum! :welcome:

Hello,
Thanks, but my asumption was to have a risk asseentment scale based on the handling and transport of the perishable ingredients which can pose risk to the final product.

Regards,
Anil Zapate

Dear Zapate,

IMEX it is necessary for this specific topic to demonstrate a dynamic risk assessment / corrective action of the supplier situation. This is in relation to the “continuous” and “ongoing” in 3.6.1, 3.6.2. It is also a traditional component of supplier approval / rejection methodology, eg the MIL standards.
I daresay that auditors’ expectations will vary though. Or perhaps you only have one supplier. :smile:

Dear Biss,

Thks for interesting document. Perhaps you should also supply a magnifying glass. :smile:

I hv a few queries -

1. What material is it used for ?

2. How do (a) you select the level of control in Supplier evaluation and (b) how do you assess the resulting "effectiveness" ?

3. Sorry for my ignorance but what is "Kemin Process" (maybe answered by no.1 above)

4. Any justification for adding the risks 4,5,6 ? I thought independent parameters were usually multiplied (definitely no probability expert though :smile: )

5. Presumably the final scoring system is arbitrary, as usual.
