What the materials cover

These documents come from a one-day introductory seminar on planning and conducting audits at food manufacturers with a packaging focus. They cover internal and external audits, including supplier audits, and use typical questions to show how audits are prepared and carried out on the basis of common standards such as IFS, DIN EN ISO 9001, ISO 22000 and BRC/IoP. The focus lies on preparation, effective questioning techniques and the evaluation of findings with a view to the constructive further development of the QMS and processes. The content is aimed at staff from development, packaging technology, QA, laboratory, purchasing and sales, as well as management representatives, particularly those new to auditing.
