Monthly BOH Brand Standards Audit

This monthly back-of-house brand standards audit helps restaurant teams assess kitchen operations and compliance. It covers open/close checks, fridge and freezer temperature logs, proper food wrapping and labeling to spec, rotation and date control, and allergen-aware dry storage. Verify handwashing stations, PPE, COSHH documentation, and first-aid supplies. Inspect floors, walls, ceilings, and hand-touch points for cleanliness and repair. Review MEP readiness, correct color-coded chopping boards, numbered probes and wipes, and evidence of tasting controls. Include due diligence diary completion and sign-offs, supplier feedback process, pest control actions, and equipment condition and cleanliness, including fryers, grills, dishwashers, extraction hoods, ice machines, bins, and yard areas. Confirm chef hygiene standards and required Level 3 food safety certification, and ensure use of the Matrix and MPW portal for operational consistency.
