PASS (Producer Audited Supply Systems)
Where does a PASS Program Fit?Agricultural Companies Seed producers are rapidly introducing a variety of specialty crop varieties and crop traits. New crop introduction requires careful control of materials during the scale-up from test-plot to demonstration to commercialization. PASS programs can help the agriculture and seed industries document and audit their stewardship procedures for the commercial marketplace and for regulatory agencies, and assist in systems to control the flow of crops into specific market channels. Global Supply Chain Management and Vendor Certification Food and agricultural processing companies are increasingly turning to specialty and value-added products that depend upon complex supply chain systems. Whether it is verifying the identity and purity of raw materials or monitoring post-manufacture product integrity, PASS programs can help processors with reliable third-party verification of raw materials and product movement. Plant-Made Pharmaceuticals PMPs are under intense scrutiny by regulators, media, NGOs and the food industry. A PASS program could be the heart of the best management practices that would be required to meet basic regulatory requirements. Additionally, a PASS program could demonstrate responsible stewardship to the scientific and commercial community. Processors Processors must ensure that all raw material and ingredients that enter their operations are meeting the specifications required of their quality programs and policies. PASS can lend greater transparency and a higher level of assurance that the final products are complying with internal quality objectives, industry standards, and buyers' expectations.
