Comprehensive Consulting Tailored to Nebraska Food Operations

Nebraska’s economy is built on agriculture, meat and poultry processing, and food manufacturing. From grain-based producers in Lincoln to meat plants near Grand Island and dairy operations in Omaha, our consulting adapts to your process and product type. We create HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans, SOPs, and detailed checklists specific to your operation. Our consultants also design prerequisite programs covering allergen control, sanitation and SSOPs, supplier approval, traceability and recall systems, calibration, pest control, and foreign material prevention. Our Food Safety Consulting Nebraska services support HACCP, SQF, GMP, and GFSI certifications including BRC and FSSC 22000.

We also help facilities comply with FSMA Preventive Controls, FSMA 204 traceability rules, USDA inspection requirements, and FDA documentation standards. All programs are built as cohesive systems, not disconnected files, so you maintain compliance consistently.

The FoodReady Roadmap to Certification in Nebraska

We follow a clear, step-by-step process to prepare Nebraska facilities for successful audits.

Gap Assessment

Our team begins with an on-site or virtual review of your facility, examining product and personnel flow, sanitation zones, controls, and documentation. The outcome is a prioritized action plan that outlines exactly what needs to be done to achieve audit readiness.

Documentation and Program Development

We build or refine your HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans, SOPs, and PRPs. This includes allergen control, supplier approval, recall, and traceability programs. We also create user-friendly forms and logs for consistent recordkeeping.

Environmental Monitoring and Verification

For ready-to-eat and high-risk products, we establish an environmental monitoring program that includes zone mapping, swab frequencies, and pathogen control strategies. FoodReady’s software helps schedule tests, track results, and trend data for ongoing verification.
