What’s new?
• HACCP to HARPC Preventative controls
• 21 CFR 117 (formerly 21 CFR 110)
cGMP update
Preventative Controls
• Qualified Individual • Supplier approval • Broader scope when assessing risks
Preventative Controls
Written food safety plan + HACCP plus PRP’s
= HARPC
“Identification of risk (potential hazard)
and proactive prevention”
“Validated”
Hazard Analysis
Hazards: biological, physical,
chemical (radiological and allergenic)
Occurrence: natural, unintentional
introduction, intentional introduction
Consider: likelihood and severity,
environmental pathogens
HARPC Considerations
Formulation Facility
Full process • Transport, manufacturing,
packaging labeling, storage, distribution
Reasonably foreseeable use
Sanitation • Product, process, people
HARPC Controls
Define “actionable level” of risks
Controls may include: • CCP’s • CP’s • PRP’s • Control activities
• Hand washing • Supplier approvals
Preventative Controls Qualified Individual (PCQI)
Someone who has successfully completed certain training in the development and application of risk-based preventive controls or is otherwise qualified through job experience to develop and apply a food safety system.
The written food safety plan required of food facilities must be prepared, or its preparation overseen, by one or more preventive controls qualified individuals
PCQI is charged with overseeing the validation that preventive controls are capable of controlling identified hazards…
cGMP’s Updated
21 CFR part 110 replaced by 21 CFR
part 117
Added: prevention of
allergen cross contact
Enhanced: supplier
approvals
Customer Controlled Hazards (117.136)
Documented explanation of
expected controls at customer /
consumer due to nature of product
(cocoa beans, coffee beans)
Documented expectations for
commercial customers regarding
controls (with verification)
Corrective Actions (117.150)
Corrective action plans, and actions, must include
assessment for and disposition
of product at risk
Supplier Approval
Verification of controls at supplier to ensure risk
management
Includes activities
undertaken on behalf of site (i.e. brokers, importers)
117.410 allows a fairly broad
range of supplier approval
mechanisms
Supplier Approvals
117.430 requires supplier audits
unless documented explanation determining otherwise
117.435 requires supplier auditors to be qualified for
task
117.420 allows alternate approval
mechanisms if verified and
effective
117.415 supplier self declarations
not accepted
BRC leads to FSMA?
FSMA
• The law is 89 pages • 21 CFR 117 is 100 pages • Federal Register Commentary
(regulations.gov) is 262 pages
BRC • Food 7 is 40 pages
Coming Soon
TAG has just completed a full analysis of BRC Food 7 vs PCHF
BRC will be releasing guidance, the comparison matrix, and an additional module for PCHF (end March)
HARPC for BRC training
FSA recognized PCQI training
Action Plan
Stay informed
Consider PCQI training
Re-assess hazard identification and management of external controls
Re-assess supplier approval mechanisms

FDA FSMA – Accredited Third-Party Certification
The FDA FSMA rule on the Accredited Third-Party Certification is now final. This rule, proposed in July 2013, and published November 2015,
establishes a voluntary program for the accreditation of third-party certification bodies, also known as auditors, to conduct food safety audits and issue certifications of foreign facilities and the foods for humans and animals they produce. These requirements will help ensure the competence and
independence of the accreditation bodies and third-party certification bodies participating in the program. Certification audits under GFSI should not be confused with
Accredited Third-Party Certification under FSMA- THESE ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT

Foreign entities may use certifications under FSMA for 2 purposes:
Certifications may be used by importers to establish eligibility for participation in the Voluntary Qualified Importer Program (VQIP), which offers expedited review and entry of food into the U.S. To prevent potentially harmful food from reaching U.S., the FDA
can also require in specific circumstances that a food offered for import be accompanied by a certification from an accredited third-party certification body. In either case domestic facilities will not be audited under
this program. This program only applies to foreign facilities and only
under very limited cases.

Accredited Third-party certification bodies
Are required to perform unannounced facility audits and to notify the FDA upon discovering a condition that could cause or contribute to a serious risk to public health. Accredited third-party certification bodies must:
– Ensure their audit agents are competent and objective – Verify the effectiveness of corrective actions to address
identified deficiencies in audited facilities – Assess and correct any problems in their own performance – Maintain and provide the FDA access to records required to be
kept under the program

Two Kinds of Audits that can be performed
Accredited third-party certification bodies can perform as part of the program, consultative and regulatory. In both kinds, auditors will examine compliance with applicable federal food safety requirements. – A consultative audit is conducted in preparation for a
regulatory audit and is for internal use. In addition to compliance with federal standards, a consultative audit also considers how the facility meets industry standards and practices. Only a regulatory audit can be the basis for certification.
An accredited third-party certification body could be a foreign government or other third-party entity or individual.
