BRC Audit - All Facilities or Specific Ones
Started by polyman, Jul 09 2014 03:40 PM
Does anyone know if each facility is included in one audit or if they would receive separate audits and separate scores? With out AIB inspection they classified them as separate facilities as they were 18 miles apart and thus had separate audits even though they shared handling of some of the same goods. Thanks for the help!

"Audit of Multiple Sites
The scope of a BRC audit needs to be agreed between the site and the certification body prior to the
audit.
The audit, report and certificate shall be ‘product’ and ‘site’ specific. However, in some circumstances,
more than one site may be included under a single certification. This will be considered exceptional
but will be allowable under the following rules.
An audit and resultant certificate may cover multiple site addresses only where ALL of the following
rules apply:
all sites are under the same organisation ownership
all sites are operated against the same documented quality management systems
sites processing materials as part of the same manufacturing process
the sites solely supply other sites within the group with no additional external customers
sites must not be more than 50 miles / 80 km apart.
This is because audits and certificates are site specific and represent only the functions supplied by
the supplier site.
If a site is intended to supply additional external customers, then this site must be certificated
separately.
All sites must be visited and audited as part of the same audit schedule (ie within same timeframe).
The certification body’s audit plan needs to clearly show the sites that shall be audited.
It must be clearly stated on the certificate that the audit has consisted of visits to more than one site
address. e.g. the manufacture by blowing of BOPP film at Polymer Industrial Estate, Bottlehampton,
and reel slitting at Reelton Depot, Ripon.
It shall also be made clear on the audit report which points have been audited at which sites and also
within the audit duration section under details for ‘reasons for deviation from target duration of 12
hours’ that more than one site has been visited since the auditing of multiple sites is likely to extend
the audit requirement time."
