Abstract

In AGROTECNICA in the city of Riobamba, a Plan of Good Manufacturing Practices (GM P ) was Designed and Developed for the production plant of animal food, in order to validate all post production processes to manufacture quality products and sustainable safety. The study is supported in quality audits made with a checklist taken through th e NORM: (REGULATION OF GOOD PRACTICE FOR PROCESSED FOODS) and the valuation of bromatological profiles of its products, to demonstrate compliance with: guarantee parameters, reported by the company. The audit determined the Initial and Final situational st atus of the company. Using “HYPOTHESIS TESTING” for proportions with applicability to a confidence level of 95% ( α =0.05), it was determined that the final test (2 nd evaluation) is greater than initial test (1 st evaluation) or; 86.3%>54.3%. With this result the company may request the certification of its production operations, based on the use of Good Manufacturing Practices , because the percentage of compliance with Norm 3253 (86.3%) shows a higher value at the minimum compliance required (75%). The develo pment of the Plan to the Good Manufacturing Practices is a positive influence on quality and safety of balanced food, ensuring that the hygienic and sanitary technical specifications of its products are fulfilled. It is recommended to proceed with the impl ementation of the Plan and to continue with the other Food Security System in order to get the animal welfare and the final consumer of its products , the man.
