Hi! I'm new to the froum, nice to meet everybody , I'm learing a lot with your experience.

 

Im currently working on getting an ISO9001 plant to get certified on BRC version 5 for packaging and packaging materials, i was wondering if someone has worked on this transition and if they made a Quality and Safety Manual or they merged ISO with the BRC Manual?  If so, it would be nice if someone could share some examples.

 

Thank you!

Hi Chimique,

 

  • a nice guide on ISO 9001:2015 & BRC pack ver. 5 :"P556: ISO 9001: 2015 to Issue 5 upgrade tool"...u can check it out in the web
  • better keep the same manual-coding, and amend/edit according to  BRC requirements

There is a sample integrated quality manual for iso9001/brc5 FOOD on this forum (somewhere)

Hi,

I find the BRC for Packaging more prescriptive than the ISO90001. I am working the other way round. We already have BRC 5 and are working towards ISO9001

I agree with the other comments. Find the gaps and address them. They will be mainly around section 2 HACCP, (similar to FMEA if you do that already) but safety and hygiene has a thread through out all clauses i.e. glass, sharps in section 4, allergens, staff controls in section 6 etc.

Once you have done all that don't forget that the BRC 5 is moving to BRC 6 in August so you will be audited to that for your initial audit. be sure to hold of a copy of that and upgrade the gaps. 

I appreciate all your comments! :rock:

 

I found the P556 tool it helped me a lot through the transition.

 

Have a great day and may the force be with us!
