💡 Performing an internal audit is a KO Requirement in the IFS PACsecure standard. According to Requirement 5.1.1, you must document, implement, and maintain an effective internal audit program and ensure that all the requirements of the standard are audited. 

🖥️ To assist internal audit teams with this task, IFS developed two software solutions:

1️⃣ The 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁 is an Excel spreadsheet that enables internal auditors to enter their findings, score the results, create an action plan, and print an audit report. This option is versatile as it can be utilised by anyone conducting an IFS PACsecure internal audit. 

➡️ Download the Excel spreadsheet today from the IFS Document Hub on www.ifs-certification.com

2️⃣ 𝗜𝗙𝗦 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗫𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗡𝗲𝗼 (𝗔𝗫𝗣 𝗡𝗲𝗼) is a PC Windows application for IFS PACsecure certified companies. The software makes internal audit reporting easy and is free of charge. It enables you to assess your product safety and quality management system effectively, receive scores immediately to identify areas for improvement, generate the internal audit report, and share the report with your IFS Auditor as he or she uses the same software. 

➡️ Download the AXP Neo software directly from the IFS Database after your login.

📅 IFS PACsecure 3 audits are possible from 1 July and become mandatory as of 1 October 2024. For unannounced audits, PACsecure 3 will apply if the audit window begins on or after 1 October 2024. In general, the applicability of IFS PACsecure 2 ends on 30 September 2024.

Let's look at how retailers are using IFS Progress to improve the product safety competence of their suppliers. 👀

We received some insightful feedback from Merve Öztürk, Product Safety Projects Manager at Migros Ticaret:

"As Migros, we have been conducting product safety audits for our existing and candidate suppliers with the IFS Progress Program, formerly Global Markets, for years. We inspect our food suppliers with IFS Progress Food, non-food suppliers with IFS Progress HPC, and our distribution centre operations with IFS Progress Logistics and follow developments", she explains.

"The purpose of our supplier audits is to encourage the continuous improvement of our suppliers in terms of product safety and to create opportunities to provide real 'capability building' in the production sector", Merve clarifies. 

She further outlines the benefits for her suppliers: For instance, our existing and candidate suppliers who want to become Migros suppliers have the opportunity to improve themselves with these assessments. They can even become eligible to receive internationally valid certificates, which can open the door to the world to make exportations. 

"For this reason, the new brand name 'IFS Progress' for the supplier development programmes reflects its most important purpose even more clearly and distinctly", she emphasises.

We say: "Thank you, Merve Öztürk, for sharing your experience with us and for your positive feedback! We are pleased to learn that our IFS Progress Programs are helping to drive product safety and establish a culture of food safety that positively impacts collaboration between retailers and suppliers."

🛒 Migros Ticaret A.Ş., usually abbreviated as Migros, is the largest retail group in Türkiye. Migros Türkiye has been operating all over the Türkiye since 1954. Today, the company has 3,121 shops in 81 Turkish provinces and seven geographical regions.

🎯 Our development programs enable suppliers to continuously monitor, build, update, and improve their products and processes to deliver safe, quality products that customers and consumers can trust. It also helps suppliers progress towards IFS Certification.

🚀 With IFS Progress, suppliers achieve the prerequisites for operating, growing, and progressing steadily in a regional, national, and international environment and be accepted as trusted business partners.

📅 IFS Progress has been the new name for our development programs since 15 May 2024, replacing the name Global Markets. Besides IFS Progress Food, we also offer IFS Progress Logistics for logistics services providers, IFS Progress PACsecure for packaging materials suppliers and IFS Progress HPC for household and personal care products producers.
