Not clear: you want to create a food safety management system (FSMS) or HACCP plans? If it's FSMS - it wouldn't matter how many flavours you have, if it's HACCP plans - that would depend on your processes. For instance, if it's the same process for all 25 flavours then it would be 1 HACCP plan, if say it's 3 different processes (e.g. ice cream, ice milk, frozen dessert) - then you'd need 3 HACCP plans.

Hello, 

 

If you need help to create a Food Safety Plan for Ice cream.  I would be glad to help you out.  I worked at a Ice cream plant for 5 years.  I start the FSMA program at this plant.

The cost is related to the size of your operation (ingredients, equipment, square footage, etc.).

 

Your ingredient hazard analysis is only a small portion of your food safety plan. If you are only looking at your ingredients. This FDA guidance document is a great tool. https://www.fda.gov/.../99581/download

 

If you are looking for a full food safety plan or unsure. Please reach out. 


Kind regards,

Hi Kara

 

Thank you. I just want to know if my rate is appropriated. I am charging $2,500.00 dollars for an Ice Cream food Safety Plant. Is it ok, too low, or too high?

Hard to know for sure without all the factors. Maybe if you think of it in terms of approximate hours you think you'll be working on this and if you included travel costs (if applicable). Everyone goes through the trial and error phases! 

 

Stick with your gut - You obviously came up with $2500 somehow and find it reasonable. Use this job as a baseline for all of your next projects. 

  • How much did you spend on travel? 
  • How many hours were you on site just learning their process and equipment?
  • How many hours did you take to write the plan?

Use those questions to determine if you feel like you got paid for what you are worth - if not increase your price for next time. Hope that helps! 


Kind regards,

Hi Kara

 

The amount of $2,500 it just was an amount that came to my mind in order to try to help the client. The client is a really a very small ice cream business, the owner and a one helper. There is no GMP plan implemented at the place. I dot no think that the client can pay my fee, that was the reason for which I was trying to get more or less an average food safety plan  charge to try help my client. My charge for pharmaceutical is $300.00/h depending the project. For the  food industry is $200.00/h depending the project.

I think that price is reasonable then for such a small operation!
