Provide reassurance to all concerned

Consumers are increasingly concerned and aware of where their food comes from. They take an active interest in ensuring they are buying on an informed decision. Tailored and efficient management of your processes will prevent food safety failures and associated costs whilst increasing legal compliance.

The public, private sector and governments internationally are increasing regarding ISO 22000 as a guarantee of food safety, quality, and security.

ISO 22000 connects you to a growing network of international suppliers in developed and developing economies. ISO 22000 applies if you are in the food production industry, processing, distribution, or storage.

Steps to getting ISO 22000 certified

Working towards ISO 22000 certification with IMSM is a trouble-free, step-by-step approach.

Initial consultation
We help you outline your goals, focusing on what your business wants to achieve and how it defines success, particularly in relation to your client’s requirements. You and your ISO consultants will agree on reasonable outcomes and delivery dates.
Producing your organisation’s ISO 22000 manual system documentation
Next, the IMSM consultant will audit your existing procedures and help you document the new systems that will help deliver success – both existing and how you will improve these. The manual system documentation sets out how your business should operate going forward so that it can deliver ISO 22000.
You will be able to view the manual system documentation, along with most other relevant documentation, on our client portal IMSMLoop. It offers a comprehensive insight into the progress of your ISO implementation, along with copies of the relevant audit reports, certifications, and any necessary corrective actions. The portal serves as a central hub for tracking your ISO journey.
Training you to adopt the ISO 22000 framework
While the manual system documentation is a vital document moving forward, it is even more important that it gets put to practical use. We work with the senior management team to ensure the framework is embedded throughout your organisation. We can also develop and deliver tailored training for staff to ensure that the understanding and implementation of ISO 22000 is watertight. This will create consistency across your organisation, transforming your business from day one so it is optimised for efficiency, continual improvement, and greater profitability.
Submission to a third-party external auditor
Before you can be awarded the ISO 22000 certification, your organisation applies to the third-party certifying body that you have selected to conduct your audit. This audit objectively determines whether your business conforms to ISO 22000, and the relevant accompanying documentation is accessible through our client portal, IMSMLoop.

As we have provided excellent support and guidance to your business every step of the way, you can rest assured that your ISO 22000 certification will be successful.
