Hello,
We are an airline catering company now planning for retail production and to get SQF certified. We are working on Edition 9 and have a question about System elements 2.4.4.2. Proficiency testing. " Where internal laboratories are used to conduct input, environmental, or product analyses, sampling and testing methods shall be in accordance with the applicable requirements of ISO/IEC 17025, including annual proficiency testing for staff conducting analyses."
We don't perform any micro or chemical analysis but all we do is ATP and EB testing in-house and we have a incubator away from the production in a room in which swabs are kept for EB testing. For proficiency testing do we come under the internal laboratory? What should we do for proficiency testing?
