Good morning, this year is our unannounced SQF Ed. 9.0 audit, we are now in our audit window. I just received the following email from our auditor: "I just wanted to provide some clarification for any future SQF audits, whether it is done by myself or another:Mock Recall: 1. Please note that a mock recall must simulate an actual recall. This includes the following: team assembly for a recall exercise, the traceability exercises, and generation of communiques for the customer, public, regulatory agencies, etc. PLEASE DO NOT SEND OUT ANY EMAIL / CALLS/ FAXES TO A 3RD PARTY FOR MOCK RECALLS. A mock recall is not just a traceability exercise. Non-conformities may be issued for mock recalls that only include the trace exercise." I am confident in my companies mock recall program, training, and execution. After reading the code updates a millionth time I still do not see any corrections or updates to Mock Recalls for Ed. 9.0. So to get to my question I guess is for practitioners that have already gone through an ed. 9.0 audit: have you seen auditors spending more time on this section or noticed a change in the way it is audited and for auditors is the mock recall section still a major reason for NC's? I figured with this being a backbone program to SQF (mandatory) most sites would have this figured out. I am just curious as to why this is was brought up by my auditor ahead of time but not the slew of changes for 9.0? Or just be glad they spent the time to send that email and pull my 2021 records out and make sure it is squared away? Thanks
