ISO 22000 mandates that organizations establish, implement and maintain prerequisite programs (PRPs) to minimize the potential of introducing hazards into the processing environment, control potential food hazards and reduce the potential of biological, chemical and physical hazards being introduced into the food or beverage. The processor must verify that the PRPs are effective as part of the FSMS and modify them as needed. Again, this kind of discipline is implied but not mandated in many HACCP programs.

ISO 9001 is defined as the international standard that specifies requirements for a quality management system (QMS). Organizations use the standard to demonstrate the ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements. It is the most popular standard in the ISO 9000 series and the only standard in the series to which organizations can certify.
This standard is based on a number of quality management principles including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach and continual improvement. These principles are explained in more detail in ISO’s quality management principles. Using ISO 9001 helps ensure that customers get consistent, good-quality products and services, which in turn brings many business benefits.
