MOCK AUDITS

This is how we describe our proactive mock audit service”.Perhaps you have BRCGS, SALSA or another external audit due.Our team can provide you with a proactive mock audit against the standards you strive to be compliant with.

LOCAL AUTHORITY APPROVALS

Do you produce products of animal origin and trigger the criteria to require approval by the local authority? Then we can help with the application process through coordinating the collation of your application supporting documents, completing the application forms for you and then submitting to the local authority on your behalf. Where required, we can also conduct a pre-approval site audit to ensure no structural or practical issues will be raised as a concern, which in turn could prevent a successful approval application process.

TECHNICAL MANAGEMENT SUPPORT

Has your business grown to the point that ideally you would be able to employ a technical role within the team, but the bank balance can’t support the financial demands of a full-time technical role?Here at Beacon Compliance we offer interim technical management support to suffice your business technical requirements as it grows, whether its 1 day a month or 1 day a week. We can fulfil the full expectations that would come with a seasoned Technical Manager, or we can simply ensure that the day-to- day quality assurance operations are being achieved on time and accurately.
