On 26 February 2015, FSSC 22000 published FSSC 22000-Q--a brand new and voluntary module for the certification of Food Quality Management Systems (QMS) in compliance with ISO 9001:2008. This addition will give organizations the possibility to be FSSC 22000 audited and certified for both Food Safety and Quality Management Systems.
