  6. Comprehensive Program • Philosophy & Commitment • Raw Material Source, Specifications & Assurances • Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point program • Good Manufacturing Practices • Employee Training Programs • Transportation Policy • Third Party Audits

  7. Philosophy & Commitment • Preventative Mindset • Proactive vs. Reactive • Continuous Improvement • Commitment from Entire Team • Leadership • Management • Production

  8. Raw Material Specifications • In-House Packer Source – 100% Bovine with mixed supply from 70% mature cows and 30% fed-cattle • 100% from Cattle Passing Ante Mortem Inspection Conducted by USDA:FSIS Veterinarian • Packinghouse Training & Awareness Relative to Potential Physical & Chemical Contaminants • CNS Tissue Removed in Packinghouse

  9. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) 7 Principles • Assess Hazards • Determine Critical Control Points – CCP • Establish Critical Limits for CCP’s – CCPCL • Procedures to Monitor CCP’s • Develop Corrective Action Plans • Recordkeeping • Verification

  10. Biological Microbiological Insect Infestation TSE’s Chemical Pesticides & PCB’s Lubricants, oils, etc. Physical Metal Plastic Potential Hazards3 Classes

  11. HACCP Example Microbiological - Pasteurization • Assess Hazard • Raw material contains potential pathogens • Determine Critical Control Points – CCP • Cooker discharge temperature - TEMP • Raw material grind - GRIND • Processing rate - RATE • Establish Critical Limits for CCP’s – CCPCL • TEMP - Minimum 270o F based on validation study • GRIND - Maximum 30 mm anvil gap on pre-breaker • RATE - Maximum 36,000 pounds/hour feed rate

  12. HACCP – MicrobiologicalContinued • Procedures to Monitor CCP’s • TEMP - Continuous monitoring by certified thermocouple • GRIND - Inspection, Weekly measurement of anvil gap • RATE - Computer tracking of cooker feed auger • Develop Corrective Action Plans • TEMP - Alarm notification, automated discharge shutoff • GRIND - Repair, Rebuild when gap reaches 30 mm • RATE - Reduce feed rate if over 36,000 pounds/hour

  13. HACCP – MicrobiologicalContinued • Recordkeeping • TEMP - Computer tracking of CCP and alarm log • GRIND - Operations & maintenance logs • RATE - Computer tracking of CCP and alarm log • Verification • Clostridium perfringens testing – indicator organism • 15 day intervals • Rotate shift and time within shift

  14. Plant Operator Screen

  15. Recordkeeping Cooker Temperature Trending and Statistical Analysis

  16. Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) • Housekeeping Issues • Recordkeeping • Pest Control Program • Facility Design & Repair • Sanitation Program • Startup & Shutdown Procedures

  17. GMP ExamplePrevent Salmonella Recontamination • APPI model adopted by +99% of industry • Process zones in facility • Work habits & policies • Startup procedures • Reprocessing of product spills • Dry cleaning of finished product areas • Sanitation practices that target “hot spots” • Facility design & equipment maintenance • Effectiveness verified by finished product testing No CCP available except formaldehyde addition

  18. Employee Training • Specific Modules on HACCP, GMP’s and SOP’s • New Hires • Entry at Trainee position • Individualized training over several months • Career Advancement • Training program for each position • Certified by written & verbal testing • All Employee’s • Quarterly quality training • Immediate team review of feed safety issues

  19. Transportation Policy • Certification of regulatory compliance by carriers • Trucks are only to haul agricultural commodities • Trucks are to be clean prior to arrival • Visual inspection of empty trucks upon arrival • No visible carryover regardless of past ingredient hauled • Will the integrity of our product be maintained? • Assurance of cleanout after delivery • Included in policy signed by carriers & drivers • Prominent reminder to driver attached to Bill of Lading Clean Conveyances and Inspection Prior to Loading Is the Responsibility of Every Ingredient Supplier!!

  20. Third Party Audits21 CFR 589.2000 • APPI Certification via Cook & Thurber • Found high compliance in Rendering Industry • Confirmed by FDA Inspections • Discontinued because of high compliance • Facility Certification Institute - FCI • Requirements are based upon FDA rule • Must prove compliance with FCI program • Ingredient supplier and transport certifications • Must demonstrate adequacy of flushing when co-mingling restricted use products • Annual audits to maintain status in program
