Kansas-Tuned Food Safety Consulting Services

FoodReady provides a complete suite of consulting services that support Kansas’s diverse food industry, from meat and poultry operations in Dodge City and Emporia, to bakeries and co-packers in Kansas City, to dairy and beverage producers near Wichita and Salina.

Our consultants create or enhance HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans, SOPs, and site-specific checklists tailored to your products and workflow, while also establishing essential prerequisite programs such as allergen management and labeling control, sanitation and SSOP development, supplier approval and verification systems, traceability and recall programs, calibration and maintenance procedures, pest prevention and facility hygiene systems, glass and brittle plastic control programs, and foreign-material prevention.

Our Food Safety Consulting Kansas services prepare facilities for HACCP, SQF, GMP, and GFSI certifications including BRCGS and FSSC 22000, and we additionally support FSMA Preventive Controls, FSMA 204 traceability compliance, USDA and FDA documentation, and third-party audit preparation—delivering each system as a cohesive, easy-to-maintain program rather than a disconnected set of binders or forms.

Our Roadmap to Certification in Kansas

Here’s how we help Kansas food businesses achieve successful certification:

Food Safety Document Development

Next, we develop or update your HACCP and FSMA Preventive Controls plans, SOPs, and PRPs. Programs include allergen control, supplier approval, traceability, and recall management. We also provide user-friendly templates, logs, and recordkeeping systems designed for real-world use.

Environmental Monitoring, Pre-Audit & Coaching

For ready-to-eat and higher-risk facilities, we design environmental monitoring programs that include zone mapping, swab schedules, and pathogen testing strategies for Listeria and Salmonella. FoodReady’s platform helps schedule sampling, store results, and track corrective actions automatically.
