Hi,

Designing a HACCP Plan for dairy based products is not an easy task if you do not have the past experience

You practically have to comb through the entire process flow very tightly and put in place interventions at every recognizable critical steps.

Interventions at non-process steps e.g. traffic control, sanitations, waste and vermin control etc are equally important.

A good in-house laboratory manual using internationally recognised test methods for test parameters required by the appropriate industry / codex standards that you are applying would serve as an excellent validation exercise.

The generic web sites that Simon has provided you would be an immense help to you.

Do remember that a HACCP Manual is a set of "living" documents that reflect the dynamic environment of your current facility where your HACCP Team is required to develop the ideal set of formal documents outlining policies and procedures that will ensure that your finished product is safely intended for public consumption.

It is not impossible to do it on your own. All the best.

Hi Tuan,

 

A good starting point to guide you in developing a HACCP Manual is CODEX Recommended International Code of Practice General Principles of Food Hygiene and in particular the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) System and Guidelines for its Application.

 

CODEX Recommended International Code of Practice General Principles of Food Hygiene.pdf   160.75KB   37 downloads

 

Prior to developing your HACCP system you should be establishing your prerequisites (Good Manufacturing Practices), most of which are prescribed in the CODEX guide but there will be others to consider like allergen management and food defence.

 

Regards,

My HACCP manual is set up as follows.

 

• Top Tier document - this is where I make reference to the current legislation, pre-requisites, intended use, description, vulnerable groups, micro organisms of interest etc etc
• The HACCP itself, including risk justifications, flow diagrams, decision tree, CCP etc
• Micro Risk assessments
• CCP Validation
• HACCP Verification (quarterly)
• Verification Plan
• pre-requisite risk assessment
• pre-requisite control & monitoring table
• CCP Audit Checklist
• Pre-requisite Audit
• HACCP Review and Verification
• HACCP Audit
• CCP Deviation Logs
• Supporting documents (legislation, white papers etc)
• Training certificates

It doesn't have to be in this order

 

Hope it helps
