That is my current question. We have been inspected by AIB for 3 years, and just scored 860. Some of the larger issues are in the works to fix, like a fast roll-up door for the production building and a vacuum cleaner that will reach those cobwebs that are up high and hard to get rid of. Production is doing a better job of cleaning than in the past, and we actually are getting the recordkeeping on a more consistent basis.
But we still have some things we are not perfect at, so we were thinking that the enrollment process might help us improve incrementally so that we would be ready for a certification audit around the end of the year or start of next year.
I have no idea how much enrollment costs (got a query into BRC about that), but for those who have been down this road, is enrollment a good idea, or a waste of time and money?
We are a small company with finite resources, but we sell our products globally, so a GFSI certification will be a big plus for our business.
Any and all opinions .
