10. Preparing for FSMA with GFSI Certification Both FSSC 22000 and SQF Level 2 have had comparison studies that show how the Food Safety Management System can contribute to meeting the FSMA requirements A facility that is Certified to one of these standards will be well on its way to complying with FSMA and can build any additional requirements into the Food Safety Management System The FSSC 22000 or SQF system clearly outlines an effective way to implement the preventive controls By implementing one of these systems a company will also benefit from having a GFSI recognized Food Safety Management System Certification
