SSAQ

Raw Materials – Supplier Self-Assessment Questionnaire – used in the approval of suppliers instead of a physical audit. A key and fundamental part of a desktop audit. Normally includes information on the supplier’s HACCP, QMS, complaint performance, micro performance, foreign body control, allergen control etc.

The supplier is then risk assessed and along with the material specification, the FBO will then decide to approve the supplier or to get more information/decide that a physical audit is required.
