Contact Us TodayGMP implementation in Seattle splits between two facility worlds: waterfront seafood plants where 21 CFR 117 Subpart B's sanitation and maintenance expectations meet salt air, standing water, and heavy daily washdown, and the inland specialty and natural-foods manufacturers whose GMP files must satisfy Washington State Department of Agriculture processor inspections plus the customer audits their retail channel demands. In both, moisture management and sanitary equipment design decide more findings than paperwork does.
Volume of cleaning isn't evidence of control: auditors want a master sanitation schedule, validated procedures for product-contact surfaces, verification (ATP, micro swabs) with trending, and equipment maintained so it can actually be cleaned — pitted surfaces and hollow rollers defeat the best crews. We shift plants from heroic washdown to documented, verified sanitation systems.
Washington processor inspections review sanitation practices and facilities, pest control, employee hygiene, water safety, and general 21 CFR 117-aligned conditions — with licensing renewal tied to findings. The records that carry inspections are the routine ones: completed sanitation logs, pest service reports with corrective follow-through, and training documentation. We make those records effortless enough to be real.
Foundational GMPs that underpin every food safety system — building, equipment, personnel, sanitation, and pest control.
