Who needs a food safety plan reassessment?

Food Safety Plans don’t stay current on their own. As your operation changes, products evolve, and regulatory expectations shift, gaps can develop between what your plan says and what your facility actually does. Alchemy Consulting conducts structured reassessments to identify those gaps, strengthen your documentation, and ensure your plan is current, compliant, and ready for your next audit.

What’s included in the food safety plan reassessment service

Our consultants work directly with your team to evaluate your existing plan against your current operation, regulatory requirements, and audit expectations.

Plan review

Comprehensive review of your current Food Safety Plan and supporting documentation.

Controls evaluation

Assessment of hazard analysis, preventive controls, process controls, allergen controls, sanitation controls, and supply-chain programs.

Procedure review

Evaluation of monitoring, corrective action, verification, and validation procedures.

Supporting programs

Review of prerequisite programs including sanitation, allergen management, supplier controls, and more.

 Gap identification

Food safety consulting built for manufacturers at every stage

This engagement is designed for food manufacturers with an existing Food Safety Plan who need to confirm it still reflects their operation and meets current expectations. Our approach is ideal for:

  • Facilities with Food Safety Plans that have not been formally reviewed in one or more years
  • Operations that have undergone changes to products, processes, equipment, or facility layout
  • Teams preparing for regulatory inspections, customer audits, or GFSI certification audits
  • Food manufacturers subject to FSMA Preventive Controls requirements
  • Organizations looking to close compliance gaps and reduce operational risk before they become audit findings

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when I submit this form?

An Alchemy Consulting team member will reach out to you within one business day to schedule a 30-minute scoping call. From there, we’ll discuss the best path forward and outline what a potential project could look like. You’ll come away with a clear picture of what is involved and what it would cost, with no obligation to proceed.

Do I need to have my documentation ready before I reach out?

No. You don’t need to prepare anything before the call. If you have your existing Food Safety Plan on hand, feel free to bring it. If your documentation is incomplete or out of date, that’s exactly what this service is designed to address.

We’re a small facility. Is this engagement right for us?

Yes. Alchemy Consulting works with facilities of all sizes, from single-line operations to multi-site manufacturers. The project is scoped to your operation, so the work matches your complexity.

Our plan is a few years old but we haven’t changed much. Do we still need a reassessment?

Possibly. Even without significant operational changes, regulatory expectations and audit standards evolve. A reassessment helps confirm your plan still meets current FSMA requirements and would hold up under scrutiny. The discovery call will help determine whether a full reassessment is warranted or whether a lighter review makes more sense.

We’re not sure if we need a reassessment or a full plan development. How do we know which is right?

The consultation call will help determine exactly what’s needed. As a general rule, if you have a documented Food Safety Plan that is reasonably current, a reassessment is likely the better path. If you don’t have a plan, if your operation has changed significantly, or if you lack a proper hazard analysis, plan development is likely the right fit. The initial call will guide your direction.

What if we decide the engagement isn’t right for us after the scoping call?

No problem. The initial consultation is intended to help both teams better understand your operation, challenges, and goals. If we determine the engagement isn’t the right fit, or that a different level of support would make more sense, there’s no obligation to move forward. Our goal is to provide clarity and help you identify the best path for your operation.

Strengthen your food safety plan before gaps become findings

Alchemy Consulting helps food manufacturers evaluate and strengthen existing Food Safety Plans with practical guidance designed for real operations, regulatory expectations, and long-term food safety performance.

No obligation. We’ll review your goals, answer questions, and help determine the right level of support for your operation.
