Hi All,
Not seen this posted up here yet so just sharing in case it's useful for anyone who hasn't seen it - BRC has published a new position statement and procedure for what they term a "blended" audit. Roughly this is a combined remote/physical audit intended to be used in place of what would normally be the full site audit, so for example if your BRC is normally two days, you could now do a 1-day remote audit for the systems review elements, and a 1-day physical audit for the site elements, the theory being that this will be helpful in the current circumstances, whilst still allowing sites to renew their "full" certification rather than the 6-month extensions that many of us now have. The site audit needs to be conducted within 1 month of the remote audit part, so it's really only viable if your facility has lifted at least some of the visitor restrictions.
Currently available for Food, Agents & Brokers, Storage & Distribution, and Packaging standards, and only for those sites that are already certified - it can't be used for first-time certification.
