Significant Changes in BRC Food Issue 7
1. Two new Fundamentals
2. Traceability
Tougher requirements for traceability apply especially to supplier management. Certified sites must not only maintain their own traceability system, but also ensure that their suppliers have an effective traceability system in place. A certification to any of the GFSI recognized standards will be considered sufficient evidence of such a system. A supplier questionnaire will not be regarded as sufficient anymore. During supplier audits, the traceability system must be included in the audit.
