Workflow

Overview

Creating comprehensive HACCP plans manually requires extensive research across FDA, USDA, and food safety resources, taking attorneys and compliance officers 6-8 hours per plan. The process involves cross-referencing multiple regulatory sources, identifying critical control points, establishing measurable limits, and ensuring every section meets strict federal compliance standards—all while maintaining accuracy across complex food safety protocols.

CaseMark automates HACCP plan generation by intelligently analyzing your process flows, searching authoritative FDA and USDA resources, and drafting compliant documentation in minutes. The platform identifies hazards, determines critical control points, establishes regulatory-compliant limits, and generates complete monitoring and verification procedures—all with proper citations to official guidelines.
