Apply as Design Partner →Maintaining BRC Global Standard Compliance
The BRC (British Retail Consortium) Global Standard for Food Safety is one of the most rigorous GFSI-recognized certifications in the world. While SQF focuses heavily on documentation, BRC places a massive emphasis on senior management commitment, continuous improvement, and a holistic food safety culture.
Continuous Improvement Metrics
BRC auditors expect to see data-driven continuous improvement. This means tracking metrics like yield variance, supplier non-conformances, and customer complaints over time, and taking corrective action when trends emerge. An operations platform provides the historical data necessary to prove to an auditor that you are actively monitoring and improving your processes.
Rigorous Supplier Approval
BRC requires a deeply documented supplier approval program. You cannot simply buy ingredients from the cheapest source; you must verify their food safety credentials, track their GFSI certificates, and monitor their performance. Your software must link this supplier approval status directly to your purchasing workflows.
