New Facility Start-Up

Hello all, 

To start, I'd like to state that I have no experience in the events following the move to a new facility. I have some knowledge of the things that need to be done but I don't want to be caught by surprise with things I'm not aware of. For instance, I know that our relevant regulatory agencies (FDA, USDA, BRC) have to be made aware of our change in address, our PPP paperwork needs to revised to reflect the changes as well and pre-production environmental testing needs to be done. Aside from that, I'm a bit lost. 

That said, I have 8-12 months of lead time before our actual move in date. I'd like to spend as much time as possible preparing for this so any information on what to expect or helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I'm currently, and for the foreseeable future, the only person in the QA department for this company.  

FYI: 

•  We are an FDA/BRCGS governed facility making RTE sandwiches, uncooked pie shells and uncooked biscuits.  
• We'll be employing the use of multiple reefer trucks and cold storage companies in leu of industrial freezer space on site. 

Thanks in advance for any help! 

If you are leaving a site and moving to a new location/site  its not just a change of address that BRC will need - just like SQF you will need a new certification.
