Enhanced PCQI Training & Food Safety Plan Development
As an FSPCA Lead Instructor for Preventive Controls for Human Food (PCQI), I believe the most effective training occurs when participants can immediately apply regulatory requirements to their own operations.
While the standardized FSPCA curriculum provides the foundation required under FSMA, I enhance the learning experience by incorporating your facility's products, manufacturing processes, ingredient hazards, sanitation practices, and supply chain into interactive workshops and Food Safety Plan development sessions.
Rather than leaving with only a training certificate, your team gains a practical understanding of how to develop, implement, and maintain a risk-based Food Safety Plan that reflects your operation and supports long-term regulatory compliance.
Recall Management & Crisis Response
Provide experienced strategic, hands-on leadership during recalls, withdrawals, product contamination events and other food safety crises. Support includes immediate risk assessment and containment, regulatory and customer communication, recall coordination, root-cause investigation, corrective and preventive action, and recovery planning to protect consumers, maintain compliance and minimize business disruption.
Environmental Pathogen Investigations
Leading organizations through environmental pathogen findings by identifying root causes, strengthening sanitation and environmental monitoring programs, and implementing corrective and preventive actions that reduce future risk.
Supplier Risk Assessment & Supply Chain Programs
Designing and implementing risk-based supplier approval programs that strengthen supply chain oversight, improve ingredient risk management, and support regulatory compliance through practical, science-based verification activities.
Contract Manufacturer Transitions
Managing the successful transition of products to new manufacturing partners by overseeing qualification, process validation, technology transfer, and commercialization to ensure continuity of food safety, quality, and supply.
Supporting the commercialization of products in global markets through regulatory strategy, technical documentation, product claims review, certification support, and cross-functional collaboration to accelerate market readiness.
International Product Commercialization
Certification Management
Managing and maintaining certification programs including USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Gluten-Free, Vegan, and Plant Based while supporting successful audits and ongoing compliance.
Internal Audit Programs & Auditor Development
Develop cross-functional internal audit programs that go beyond identification of compliance gaps to drive meaningful improvement across food safety, quality, and regulatory systems. Through risk-based auditing, practical auditor training, and team mentoring, employees build the skills to identify systemic gaps, conduct effective root-cause analysis, and implement sustainable corrective and preventive actions. This collaborative approach strengthens accountability, improves food safety culture across the organization, with the overall goal of producing safe, high-quality products for your customers.
