Services
Compliance Aligned Consulting provides expert support for businesses navigating complex compliance landscapes. Whether your objective is to gain certification for new contracts (E.g., with the major supermarket chains or specific industries), enhance your existing Quality Management System (QMS), or identify critical system gaps to win tenders, our experienced consultants offer tailored insights and guidance to ensure you meet your strategic business objectives.
QMS Implementation
Quality Management System (QMS) implementation is the systematic process of establishing, documenting and integrating a set of policies, processes and procedures within an organisation to ensure that it consistently meets customer and regulatory requirements, while also striving for continuous improvement. It's not just about creating documents, but about embedding a culture of quality throughout every aspect of the business.
FAMI-QS
FAMI-QS (Feed Additive and Pre-Mixture Quality System) is a globally recognised feed safety and quality certification standard designed specifically for organisations involved in the production, processing, storage, packaging and distribution of feed additives and mineral-based pre-mixtures. It provides a risk-based auditable framework to ensure feed ingredients are safe, authentic, compliant and manufactured to a consistent quality level.
HACCP
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) is a systematic, science-based methodology used to identify, evaluate and control hazards that may affect food or feed safety. Developed through international consensus and supported by bodies such as the Codex Alimentarius Commission, HACCP focuses on preventative controls applied at critical process steps rather than finished-product inspection alone. It manages biological, chemical and physical hazards using risk-based thinking, CCP determination, monitoring, corrective actions, record keeping and ongoing verification.
Gap Analysis
Gap analysis is a systematic process used to identify the "gap" between an organisation's current state and its desired future state or target. It's a method for comparing actual performance with potential or desired performance. Essentially, it answers the question: "Where are we now, and where do we want to be, and what do we need to do to get there?"
The "gap" represents the discrepancies, deficiencies or areas where current performance falls short of the ideal or required level.
SQF
Safe Quality Food (SQF) is a globally recognised, GFSI-benchmarked food and feed safety certification standard administered by the SQF Institute. SQF provides a rigorous, risk-based framework for managing product safety, quality, supplier approval, traceability, process control, hygiene (GMP), allergens, food/feed fraud (VACCP) and corrective actions. The code applies across the supply chain—from ingredient manufacturing to finished product distribution.
FEEDSAFE
FeedSafe is an accredited quality-assurance program owned by Australia’s peak feed industry body, the Stock Feed Manufacturers' Council of Australia. It supports the safe manufacture and supply of stockfeed by aligning industry compliance with ISO 9001, HACCP, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), and strict contamination prevention expectations. FeedSafe focuses on traceability, supplier approval, hygiene, risk assessments, governance, training and corrective actions. The scheme verifies that feed is safe, compliant, consistent, and effective — promoting a strong feed-safety culture, robust process controls, auditable systems and continual improvement across the livestock feed supply chain.
Internal Audits
Internal audits are independent, objective assurance and consulting activities designed to add value and improve an organisation's operations. They help an organisation accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes.
ISO 9001, 14001 & 45001
ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 are internationally recognised management system standards that provide a structured, risk-based framework for operational excellence. ISO 9001 focuses on quality and customer satisfaction, ISO 14001 governs environmental management, and ISO 45001 supports occupational health and safety.
ISO 22000
ISO 22000 is an internationally recognised Food Safety Management System (FSMS) standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization. It sets a structured, risk-based framework for managing food safety hazards across the supply chain. ISO 22000 integrates interactive communication, prerequisite programs (GMP), HACCP principles, hazard analysis, traceability, emergency preparedness, validation and continual improvement.

About Us
About Compliance Aligned Consulting
With over 25 years of hands-on experience in the food/feed and the manufacturing industry, we understand the real-world challenges that businesses face when it comes to quality, compliance and operational performance. My career has taken me through every stage of the production environment—from factory floors and quality labs to leadership and compliance roles—equipping me with a practical, end-to-end understanding of what truly makes a system work.
I founded Compliance Aligned Consulting with a clear mission:
to help businesses build strong, sustainable and compliant management systems that not only achieve certification but support long-term success.
Our Approach
What sets our approach apart is our commitment to practical, tailored solutions. We work closely with each organisation to understand how they operate, where the pain points are and what is needed to strengthen their systems in a way that is simple, logical and sustainable.
We believe compliance should never feel like a burden. When designed well, a management system becomes a powerful framework that improves efficiency, enhances product quality, supports staff engagement and protects your brand.
