The problem with your current workflow

You built the HACCP programme.
Now you're maintaining it for free.

Most QA consultants spend more time chasing manufacturing clients for evidence than doing actual consulting work. Every follow-up email, every reminder call, every unplanned remediation visit is unbilled time eating into your capacity to grow.

Chasing plants for COAs and supplier certs
You ask for the updated HACCP certificate or COA for a raw material lot. They say they'll send it. Two weeks later you're following up again — and the certifier audit is next month.
Re-doing work after major non-conformances
You built a solid HACCP programme. Six months later PRP records have slipped and the plant needs remediation. That visit is time you didn't budget for and can't charge full rate on.
No visibility between site visits
You don't know if your client is maintaining what you set up until you're back on site — or until they call you in a panic before a GFSI or customer audit.
Admin overhead caps how many plants you can support
The time you spend managing each plant's documentation is time you're not spending onboarding a new client. The bottleneck isn't skill — it's follow-up.
The evidence gap between your consulting visits isn't your fault — it's structural. There's been no system built for the consultant–plant relationship in manufacturing compliance. EthicalHub fills that gap. Your client logs on the floor. You review from your dashboard. The information flows to you instead of you chasing it.

How it works

Complete the HACCP programme. Send one link.
Review from your desk.

The entire consultant–plant relationship — from onboarding to ongoing compliance review — runs through EthicalHub.

1 Step one
You develop the HACCP programme
You write or review the HACCP plan, train the QA team, and get the plant properly compliant. Your consulting work is done — and it's solid. Now you need it to stay that way between audits.
Your existing workflow, unchanged
2 Step two
You send the plant a link to join EthicalHub
One invite link. Your client sets up their facility, loads suppliers and COAs, and activates goods-in and PRP logging on the floor. Takes 15 minutes. You're connected as their consultant automatically.
One link — they're onboarded
3 Step three
They log on the floor. You review. No chasing required.
Your client maintains PRPs, goods-in, and NCRs inside EthicalHub. You review from your dashboard, sign off CAPAs remotely, and generate dated audit packs — without a phone call or follow-up email.
More plants per month, same effort
What this means for your practice

Less follow-up. More plants.
Better audit outcomes.

EthicalHub doesn't change how you consult — it removes the admin overhead that caps how many manufacturing clients you can take on.

01
Onboard more plants without hiring
The time you recover from chasing evidence is time you can spend onboarding a new manufacturing client. Most consultants can take on 30–40% more plants once the follow-up admin is gone.
02
Your HACCP work actually holds up
When a plant you've worked with passes their next GFSI or customer audit cleanly, that's a reference. EthicalHub keeps the systems you built functioning — not just on day one, but at audit time.
03
Full visibility without site visits
See every plant's Production Audit Readiness score, open NCRs, expiring COAs, and PRP gaps from your dashboard. You know what needs attention before they call you.
04
Generate audit packs in 60 seconds
A dated, downloadable HACCP audit pack for any client, any period — with overall score, PRP summary, goods-in log, NCR/CAPA trail, and supplier cert status. Ready for your certifier or customer audit.
05
No conflict with audit obligations
EthicalHub is software infrastructure, not a professional service. Using it alongside your consulting practice raises no conflict of interest with any audit or certification obligations you hold.
06
Built for HACCP/GMP and GFSI — not hospitality templates
FSANZ 3.2.1, Codex HACCP, and GFSI scheme paths (SQF, FSSC 22000, BRCGS) built in from day one. Not a global template with a manufacturing checkbox added later.
Before and after

How your month changes.

Same clients. Same expertise. Half the admin.

Without EthicalHub
  • Email plants for supplier COAs before each visit
  • Chase calibration schedules on a spreadsheet
  • Discover expired COAs during a certifier audit
  • Compile audit evidence manually from scattered records
  • Return for remediation visits that weren't in your schedule
  • 3–5 hours of admin per plant per month just to stay current
With EthicalHub
  • Plants log goods-in and PRPs — evidence appears in your dashboard
  • COA expiry tracked automatically with alerts to you first
  • Production Audit Readiness visible daily — you're always ahead
  • One-click HACCP audit pack generated in 60 seconds, any date
  • NCRs tracked and closed before your next site visit
  • Time recovered = capacity to onboard 2–3 more plants monthly
The time you recover from admin is time you can spend onboarding new manufacturing clients. That's how you grow.
