NEC supports food-chain organisations in developing a structured food-safety management system integrating hazard control, prerequisite programmes, communication, traceability, emergency response, and continual improvement.
Assessment route: NEC provides consultancy, implementation, audit preparation, and certification coordination. The final certificate is issued by an independent certification body after successful assessment.
ISO 22000 specifies requirements for a food safety management system for organisations in the food chain, combining management-system principles with hazard analysis and operational food-safety controls.
NEC translates the framework into clear responsibilities, documents, controls, records, and improvement activities that fit the organisation’s actual operations.
Current reference: ISO 22000:2018 remains the current published requirements edition, with the 2024 climate-action amendment applying.
NEC shapes the route around the commercial objective, operational reality, and current readiness.
Meet management-system requirements requested during tendering and supplier approval.
Demonstrate structured control of food-safety hazards, prerequisite programmes, operational controls, traceability, communication, and improvement.
Organise responsibilities and evidence around recognised international practice.
Create clearer processes, accountability, controls, and objectives.
Identify gaps, reduce preventable failures, and improve decisions.
Strengthen confidence with clients, regulators, partners, and supply chains.
A well-implemented Food Safety Management System (FSMS) should strengthen daily work—not simply produce documents for an audit.
