ISO 22000 Food Safety Management Systems

Overview

Our ISO 22000 consultancy services support organisations involved in the food supply chain in establishing, implementing, and maintaining a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) to ensure the safety of food products at all stages of production and delivery.

CCIS works closely with organisations to translate ISO 22000 requirements into practical food safety controls, helping teams manage food safety hazards, strengthen process control, and integrate food safety practices into everyday operations in a structured and sustainable manner.

What is ISO 22000?

ISO 22000 is an international standard that provides a framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving a Food Safety Management System.

The standard applies to all organisations in the food chain, including food manufacturers, processors, distributors, storage providers, and food service organisations. ISO 22000 integrates key elements such as hazard analysis, prerequisite programmes, operational controls, communication, and continual improvement to ensure food safety hazards are identified, evaluated, and controlled effectively.

Benefits of ISO 22000

Implementing ISO 22000 helps organisations strengthen control over food safety hazards and improve consistency in food safety practices.

Organisations benefit from clearer identification and management of food safety risks, improved process control, and stronger confidence in product safety. ISO 22000 also supports regulatory compliance, enhances trust among customers and stakeholders, and improves readiness for audits and supply chain requirements by demonstrating a structured and responsible approach to food safety management.

Our Consultancy Approach

At CCIS, we provide practical and structured consultancy services tailored to your organisation’s size, industry, and operational context.

Our consultancy covers the full lifecycle of implementation, including an initial gap analysis to understand current practices, support for management system design and documentation, guidance on implementation and record‑keeping processes, practical training and awareness for relevant personnel, internal audit support, and assistance in preparing for certification or assessment.

We continue to support organisations beyond certification to help ensure management systems remain effective, compliant, and audit‑ready as business needs and requirements evolve. Our focus is on effective implementation and long‑term sustainability, not documentation created solely for audit purposes.

Our approach emphasises real‑world implementation, strong project control, and ongoing support-helping organisations achieve certification with systems they can confidently maintain over time.

• Strong project management to ensure on‑time certification

Ongoing After‑Sales Support & Maintenance

Certification is not the end of the journey. As business needs, regulatory expectations, and organisational scope evolve, ongoing support is essential to ensure management systems remain effective and relevant.

Our after‑sales support helps organisations maintain compliance, effectiveness, and audit readiness over time. This includes support for surveillance and re‑certification audits, assistance in addressing audit findings and corrective actions, updates to management systems when business processes or scope change, and ongoing advisory support to drive continual improvement.

We work with organisations as a long‑term partner, supporting the sustainability of management systems beyond initial certification rather than providing one‑off consultancy.
