SALSA and Organic auditing

Duncan Perry of Outsource Solution Ltd has been approved by the Institute of Food Science and Technology as one of the first 7 approved auditors for the newly launched SALSA scheme. The Small and Local Supplier Approval (SALSA) scheme is designed to verify supplier status of small producers through a 3rd party audit. It is expected that this will fulfil the requirements of retailers, wholesalers and caterers for their supplier approval process and their own Food Quality Management Systems. Approval under this scheme will be a valuable tool to grow small businesses into new markets and be a good validation of their systems.

Both auditing and mentoring services are provided. Please contact us for more details.

Duncan has also just been registered as an approved Organic Processor auditor by DEFRA and can undertake complex processing audits for approval under the SOPA organic standard.

Food Graduate into Business

Food Graduate into Business

A great opportunity exists for graduates to work within 2 food companies consecutively to progress their Quality Management systems to achieve British Retail Consortium Global Standard Food Certification. The project is mentored by Scottish Enterprise and Outsource Solution Ltd to provide the graduate and the businesses all the necessary support to achieve a successful outcome.

The project is aimed at businesses that may have not employed a Quality or Technical function in the past but now see a requirement and / or cannot justify the employment of a full time individual.

The graduate gains the necessary industry experience and the significant achievement of potentially achieving 2 BRC certifications in one year and, therefore, secured employment for the future. The Food Company can benefit from the certification and all the associated commercial benefits as well as the cost saving of sharing a graduate. Throughout this arrangement, however, both graduate and Company have the significant support of years of experience from the mentors.

This model has been successfully introduced at the start of the year and we are now in a position to match more suitable graduates and more Companies.

If you are a Food Science Graduate (or related discipline) or a Food Manufacturer who think they may benefit from this scheme, please contact Duncan Perry, email; perry@outsourcesolution.co.uk or phone 01506 631254 to express interest or request further information.
