Desarrollo de un manual de Buenas Prácticas de Manufactura para la línea de snacks para la Asociación de Productores y Productoras Nueva Esperanza de Mulalillo (APRONEM)

Abstract

The present research work was carried out in APRONEM with the objective of carrying out the development of a manual of Good Manufacturing Practices for the snack line. For its execution, a diagnosis of the current situation of the plant was carried out, by means of an initial verification register based on the Sanitary Technical Norms for Processed Food according to the resolution (ARCSA 067-2015). The qualification on compliance was done by means of four categories "does not comply", "partially complies", "complies satisfactorily", "complies very satisfactory" or "does not apply" being their rating levels (0, 1, 2, 3 Or N / A). The impact of default is weighted by three "critical", "major" and "minor" categories with their rating levels (1, 2, 3). The results of the initial diagnosis, conformed by the 8 chapters of the current regulations, were in the "very satisfactory" category of 34.97 percent, with a "critical impact" of 62.37 percent. Subsequently, an improvement plan was executed based on the non-compliances found. Subsequently, the documentation of the Manual was developed, which is made up of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOP). Finally, the improvements made at the plant were evaluated by means of a final verification register, where the "very satisfactory" category was 86.71 percent, with a "critical impact" of 36.84 percent. Therefore, in comparison to the initial diagnosis, there is an overall improvement in terms of compliance with GMP, through the application of the manual.
