GMP Pre-Operation Audit Checklist

This GMP pre-operation audit checklist helps food and dairy plants verify readiness before production. It covers multiple areas including blending, filling, pre-coding, weighing, storage, wash rooms, change rooms, debagging, can sorting, packing, warehouse, toilets, external premises, and break rooms. Checks include integrity of breakables, equipment and area cleanliness, UV light operation, structural soundness and pest exclusion, availability and accuracy of required forms, personal hygiene and correct attire, medical fitness, calibration of scales and metal detectors, batch coding, room and air pressure readings, compressor gauges, proper product storage and labeling, and water filtration status. Use this template to standardize pre-op inspections, reinforce GMP compliance, and reduce contamination risks.
