==Differences between FSMA Preventive Controls and HACCP==
*FSMA places a much stronger emphasis on science, research and prior experience with outbreaks than HACCP. For example, the FDA now uses [[whole genome sequencing]] to match the exact strain of pathogen isolated from hospital patients to DNA recovered from food manufacturing facilities.<ref>{{cite news |last=Alonso-Zaldiva |first=Ricardo |date=9 June 2016 |title=Investigator: FDA still taking months to recall tainted food |url=http://www.bradenton.com/news/business/article82698737.html |newspaper=Bradenton Herald |___location=Bradenton, Florida |access-date=9 June 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=How Whole-Genome Sequencing Can Help Fight Foodborne Illness |url=https://www.foodsafetymagazine.com/news/how-whole-genome-sequencing-can-help-fight-foodborne-illness |work= |___location= |date=14 September 2017 |access-date=18 September 2017 }}</ref>
*FSMA requires that a "Preventive Controls Qualified Individual" (PCQI) with training and experience oversee the plan.<ref>{{cite news |last=Viswanathan |first=Sangita |date=13 March 2015 |title=What to do Now to Migrate from HACCP to HARPC |url=https://foodsafetytech.com/feature_article/what-to-do-now-to-migrate-from-haccp-to-harpc |newspaper=foodsafetytech.com |___location= |access-date=2 May 2016}}</ref> HACCP assigned responsibilities to a team drawn from management.
*FSMA requires that firms vet ("Verify") all their suppliers for the effectiveness of their food safety programs. This has the effect of drafting companies into the FSMA enforcement effort, since the Supplier Verification and Foreign Supplier Verification programs require that the suppliers provide written proof that they have Prerequisite Programs, and Preventive Controls systems which includes their own supplier vetting program.<ref>{{cite news |last=Hermida |first=Maile Gradison |date=April–May 2016 |title=Ten Considerations for Developing a FSMA-Compliant Supplier Verification Program |url=http://www.foodsafetymagazine.com/magazine-archive1/aprilmay-2016/ten-considerations-for-developing-a-fsma-compliant-supplier-verification-program |newspaper=Food Safety Magazine |___location= |access-date=8 September 2016 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.naturalproductsinsider.com/articles/2016/02/prevention-instead-of-correction-fda-implements-n.aspx |title=Prevention Instead of Correction: FDA Implements New System for Food Safety Regulation |last1=Gallegos |first1=Antonio |date=10 February 2016 |website=naturalproductsinsider.com |publisher= |access-date=2 May 2016 |quote=}} </ref>
