Food Defense Plan Sustainability
To sustain the improvements made in implementing a Food Defense Plan, periodic review and update are required. Periscope Consulting suggests a combination of internal and external review, such as internal daily checklists and external inspections or audits.
Periscope can tailor an audit plan to precisely match your food defense plan. This can include checklist and self-assessment tools that you would use and 3rd party inspections and formal audits that we can perform on your behalf. Consider using these services with your suppliers too.
