BFQC cGMP Certification
A proprietary certification built for manufacturers in high-risk high volatile industries that want to separate themselves from weak competitors and prove their systems can hold up under real scrutiny.
BFQC cGMP Certification is a proprietary certification using industry leading benchmarks along with FDA cGMP requirements.
It is not currently an accredited certification.
THE MARKET IS FULL OF CLAIMS.
VERY FEW MANUFACTURERS CAN PROVE IT.
In emerging and high-risk product categories, buyers, brand partners, and industry stakeholders often cannot tell who is operating with a real quality management system and who is simply making claims.
BFQC cGMP Certification was built to create separation.
This program is designed for manufacturers who want to demonstrate real operational discipline, stronger cGMP alignment, and a level of readiness that pushes them towards more formal and accredited GFSI-aligned pathways.

How Certification works
-
We discuss your operation, product category, facility profile, and whether the certification is the right fit.
-
You complete the required pre-audit questionnaire and supporting document review process.
-
BFQC conducts a 2-day on-site audit of your operation against the proprietary BFQC cGMP Audit Standard.
-
You receive a formal audit report. Manufacturers that achieve a passing score are awarded BFQC cGMP Certification.
-
Certification is renewed annually to maintain credibility and standing.
Audit scoring is based on a 100-point system.
A minimum score of 70 is required to pass.

A MORE DEMANDING STANDARD FOR SERIOUS MANUFACTURERS
The BFQC cGMP Audit Standard was built to challenge manufacturers beyond the level many operators are used to.

This is not a lightweight marketing exercise.
It is a serious certification program for manufacturers that want real separation.
