Services – Regulatory, Compliance & Operational Support

Helping food businesses build compliance systems that work — not just check boxes.

​

Whether you’re preparing to import food products into the U.S., strengthen your quality systems, or prepare for audits and inspections, I support organizations with practical, tailored solutions that reflect real operational needs.

What I Do

​

1. Import Readiness & FDA Regulatory Support


Navigating U.S. food import requirements — including FDA facility registration, Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) compliance, labeling and documentation — can be confusing and high-risk. I help you establish and document the programs you need so shipments clear U.S. entry without surprises.

​

  • FSVP gap assessments and program development

  • FDA facility registration and documentation tracking

  • Import labeling review and compliance checks

  • Prior notice coordination with brokers and partners

  • Verification of supplier controls and hazard analyse

2. Quality Systems & Supplier Oversight


Strong quality systems make audits predictable and suppliers manageable. I help build systems that integrate core quality principles into your day-to-day operations.

​

  • Supplier qualification, monitoring, and risk evaluation

  • SOP and QMS framework development

  • Supplier audit preparation and reporting

  • Controls for traceability, recordkeeping, and change management

 

3. Audits, Inspections & Operational Confidence


Whether you’re preparing for an external inspection, customer audit, or internal review, I help you get and stay ready.

​

  • Mock FDA/agency inspections

  • Documentation readiness reviews

  • Audit gap analysis and remediation planning

  • Team coaching and audit response support

 

4. Training & Capability Building


Documentation is only useful if people know how to apply it. I design training that focuses on practical adoption — not just compliance theory.

​

  • SOP training & onboarding programs

  • Compliance awareness workshops

  • Functional training (FSVP, recordkeeping, supplier controls
