Whether the audience is CFIA, Alberta Health Services, or a customer auditor, the GMP fundamentals — building, sanitation, personnel, pest control — carry the same weight.
Condensation and frost where warm moist processing air meets cold surfaces — overhead pipes, dock seals, freezer entries — creating drip contamination risk over product zones, plus pest pressure as rodents move indoors seeking warmth. GMP programs here need seasonal verification schedules: condensate mapping in cold months, intensified perimeter pest monitoring in fall, and door-management discipline that survives shipping-dock reality at minus thirty.
By making zones physical and procedural at once: colour-coded equipment and utensils per zone, controlled transition points with hygiene stations rather than open corridors, filtered and pressure-managed air where RTE exposure exists, and traffic-pattern maps that shipping and maintenance staff actually follow. Large prairie plants fail zoning through forklift and maintenance traffic, not production staff — so those roles get targeted training and audit attention.
Foundational GMPs that underpin every food safety system — building, equipment, personnel, sanitation, and pest control.
