* The VitiSynth Global Audit © is the next generation of a second party audit James has been conducting for clients over many years. The checklist used during these audits includes over 2000 criteria related to technical, business management, environmental management and occupational health & safety aspects of vineyard, winery, warehouse and cellar door operations. The criteria are mapped against the VitiSynth Wine LoT © to provide structure and to create the opportunity for the client to use the VitiSynth database to further explore opportunities for improvement / innovation. The audit provides clients with a very detailed and constructive overview of the current status of operations including status in relation to compliance with international standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, HACCP, GMP, ISO 22000 and GFSI recognised standards such as IFS and FSSC 22000.
