Comparing the
Programs:
All of these programs include the principles of HACCP found in the Codex
Alimentarius
All the programs include management systems requirements and
GMP/Prerequisite Programs
The organization of the standards vary
The SQF code has modules. Every company must comply with module 2
containing the management system elements and choose the module that
applies to their sector for GMPs
The BRC standard has the management system requirements, prerequisite
program requirements and site standards in one document.
The FSSC 22000 scheme requirements are found in several standards,
FSSC 22000, ISO 22000 and one of the prerequisite program documents
(ISO/TS 22002-1 or PAS 223)

Comparing the
Programs:
Because they are GFSI Benchmarked, the programs are
all well recognized
To choose the best certification program for your organization,
you may want to consider what program your customers use
Consider the target market (geographic, product)
GFSI has benchmarked these standards and determined that
they meet the requirements outlined by GFSI, leading to a
similarity of requirements between the programs, though they
are not exactly the same

by implementing programs. Use the standard
as a guide. Each standard includes

Develop and implement your HACCP Plan
This will be your next step if you do not have
one in place already. Be sure someone in your
facility is HACCP trained and can develop your
HACCP plan.
