How We Work
One-time Compliance Audits
Don’t know where to start? Aren’t sure how compliant your already existing facility is? Allay Consulting can help! You choose what standards you want to be audited to and we can send a compliance expert to the facility to consult a one-time audit. This will give you lots of information and give you a base line of what your company might, or might not need improving on. Pricing varies depending on standard (State Regulations, FDA, OSHA, cGMP, ISO 9001, ISO 22000) and travel cost.
Customizable Retainer Packages
After conducting a Baseline Assessment of a facility, our consultants will work with your company to build a package that fits your needs. While our packages always include a monthly number of hours that can be used for an onsite audit and followed up by a comprehensive compliance report, any number of compliance projects can be completed using those set monthly hours. Your Allay Consultant can help itemize and prioritize exactly what your company needs.
Hourly Professional Services
If your company is unsure of scope, or simply has a project or two that need attention, Allay can easily create an hourly plan. Ultimately, it is our job to make sure the product you create ends up in stores, not disposed of. While our hourly rate is usually the more expensive option, it can be beneficial in light of unforeseen or urgent situations, to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
Common Services
Product Safety Evaluation
Eventually, the FDA will require every product on the market to be evaluated and approved. The Product Safety Evaluation is an easy way to organize each product made in your facility, so they are easily available to regulators. In some states such as Colorado these evaluations are required to sell certain products that are high risk products (Audited Product Evaluations). Allay Consulting has Certified Quality Auditors on staff that are approved to conduct these kinds of product evaluations. Avoid costly shutdowns by gathering and preparing all the relevant product information, before they ask.
Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Development
Allay Consulting can assist with all required documentation and SOP’s for; FDA, cGMP compliance, ISO 22000 Compliance, and OSHA. Please contact us for pricing, timelines, and retainer packages.
cGMP Compliance
cGMP stands for Current Good Manufacturing Practices and is promulgated by FDA. cGMP regulations require a quality approach to manufacturing, enabling companies to minimize or eliminate instances of contamination, mix-ups, and errors. It is designed to minimize the risks involved in all steps of the manufacturing process. Allay Consulting are cGMP/ FDA experts and can help your company put together all of the required documentation, SOP’s and trainings required to receive the certification from an accredited certifying body.

ISO 22000 Compliance
ISO 22000 is a Food Safety Management System that can be applied to any organization in the food chain, farm to fork. Becoming certified to ISO 22000 allows a company to show their customers that they have a food safety management system in place. This is more in depth and complicated than cGMP standards but provides more customer confidence in the product. Allay Consulting can help your company put together all of the required documentation, SOP’s and trainings required to receive the certification from an accredited certifying body.

The standard is underpinned by science and is outcome-based. It allows for flexibility in approach and is not unnecessarily prescriptive, helping organizations achieve their regulatory and risk-based objectives.
