Rhode Island’s Food Safety Consultants for Fast, Audit-Ready Certification.
From Providence and Warwick to Cranston, Pawtucket, and Newport, Rhode Island’s food manufacturers, distributors, and co-packers are held to high expectations by retailers, buyers, and regulatory agencies. FoodReady’s Food Safety Consulting in Rhode Island helps local companies design, implement, and sustain compliance systems that are practical, efficient, and built to pass audits.
As your Rhode Island Food Safety Consultant, we support every step of your certification journey — from gap assessments and HACCP or FSMA Preventive Controls plan creation to GMP and PRP implementation, documentation management, and mock audits. Whether you need HACCP, SQF, GMP, FSMA, USDA, FDA, or GFSI-aligned certification, we deliver done-with-you solutions that work on the production floor, not just on paper.
Engage with an expedient process that is more than traditional consulting. Supported by a unique combination of veteran food safety experts and software intelligence, we get your Food Safety / HACCP programs ready to stay ready for any GFSI, BRC, SQF, or Retail Audit, in addition to State, USDA, or FDA inspections.
Every project is led by Dave Seddon, FoodReady’s Chief Food Safety Officer. With more than 500 completed audits and recognition as an SQF Auditor of the Year finalist, Dave brings an auditor’s insight to every engagement. He understands what certifiers and regulators look for and helps Iowa food companies align their documentation, hazard analysis, and records with those expectations. Under his direction, our Food Safety Consultants in Iowa build systems that are not only compliant but also practical for your staff to run every day.
Rhode Island’s food sector includes seafood processors along Narragansett Bay, bakeries and beverage co-packers near Providence, and cold storage and distribution facilities across the state. Each faces unique challenges in maintaining compliance while managing seasonal operations, product variety, and workforce turnover.
FoodReady’s consulting process starts with a full gap assessment to evaluate your existing programs and identify where improvements are needed. We then create or refine HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans tailored to your processes and product risks. Our consultants ensure all core elements — sanitation procedures, allergen management, supplier approval, traceability, recall, and pest control — work as a single, cohesive system that meets certification standards.
FoodReady’s Food Safety Consulting Rhode Island services prepare facilities for HACCP, SQF, GMP, and GFSI certifications such as BRC and FSSC 22000. We also support FSMA Preventive Controls and FSMA 204 traceability compliance and assist USDA and FDA facilities with documentation and verification. Every system is designed to be sustainable for your staff to maintain year-round while remaining fully audit-ready.
FoodReady’s mission is to simplify compliance for Rhode Island food businesses by building systems that are efficient, transparent, and defensible during audits. Our consultants replace scattered binders and manual checklists with structured documentation and streamlined procedures that improve performance and reduce audit findings.
Working with our Rhode Island Food Safety Consultant team means gaining a clear, organized compliance framework that strengthens preventive controls, improves product consistency, and lowers risk. Our approach helps companies achieve faster customer approvals and maintain compliance with both state and federal standards. We focus on building systems that your team can realistically follow — whether you’re a seafood packer, bakery, or beverage processor.
FoodReady doesn’t just deliver documentation — we help you implement it. Our Rhode Island Food Safety Consultants collaborate with QA, operations, and management to make sure procedures are properly installed and verified. We train staff, validate sanitation processes, and confirm recordkeeping accuracy long before the audit.
FoodReady’s digital software platform enhances this process by simplifying how you manage compliance. With our tools, you can capture daily floor checks, run checklists, maintain document control, track environmental monitoring, and manage traceability across batches and lots. This integration of consulting and technology keeps your facility organized, verified, and inspection-ready at all times.

Gap Assessment
We begin with an on-site or virtual review of your processes, sanitation, and documentation. You receive a prioritized action plan outlining next steps toward full compliance and certification.
Food Safety Document Development
We create or refine HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans, SOPs, and PRPs that address allergen control, supplier approval, recall, and traceability. Templates and logs are designed for easy, consistent recordkeeping.
Environmental Monitoring, Pre-Audit & Training
For ready-to-eat or higher-risk operations, we develop environmental monitoring systems that include zone mapping, swab schedules, and Listeria and Salmonella testing strategies. Our software automates tracking and trending for verification.
Before your certification audit, we perform a complete internal review to verify documentation accuracy, staff readiness, and system performance, ensuring a smooth audit experience.
