1. Overview of NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP CertificationIn January 2019, the Global Retailer and Manufacturer Alliance (GRMA) announced the publication of NSF/ANSI 455 standards, a set of consensus-based GoodManufacturing Practices (GMP) requirements for manufacturers of dietary supplements (NSF/ANSI 455-2), cosmetics and personal care products (NSF/ANSI 455-3)and over-the-counter drugs (NSF/ANSI 455-4). In addition, an Audit Requirements Guideline (ARG) were published as companion documents to assist with theinterpretation of each standard. A fourth standard, NSF/ANSI 455-1 Terminology for the NSF 455 Portfolio of Standards, was also published as a supplement tothe three (3) NSF/ANSI 455 GMP standards.The NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP for Dietary Supplement standard was developed in accordance with 21 CFR Part 11, 21 CFR Part 111, and applicable Food SafetyModernization Act (FSMA) final rules: Preventive Controls for Human Food (21 CFR Part 117), Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food, and ForeignSupplier Verification Programs (FSVP) for Importers of Food for Humans and Animals. The purpose of NSF/ANSI 455-2 is to address key challenges in the dietarysupplements industry by having one accepted standard.Key Industry ChallengeInconsistencybetweenaudits andauditorsUnable toreview auditresultsRetailerGMP auditsnot mitigatingsupplierrisks3Audit fatigueManufacturerInterpretationof GMPrequirements& guidanceDifferentretailerrequirements 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.

1. Overview of NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification (cont’d)Benefits of transitioning to NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification Public standard developed in consensus by manufacturers, retailers, public health regulators, and certification bodies American National Standards Institute (ANSI) accredited standard One industry GMP standard Mitigate supplier risk Calibration of certification bodies and auditors to one standard Standardized audit report ANSI logo on certificates for global recognition Prevent manufacturers’ audit fatigue by reducing the number of audits in a year Reduce associated costs of auditing to multiple independent standards Assists manufacturers with continuous improvement Assists manufacturers with implementing industry best practices Greater consumer confidence in manufacturers and their products Accepted by retailersOut of ScopeWarehouse and distribution centers (standalone), brokers, label designers, laboratories, office buildings, transport companies,E-Commerce, or facilities producing medical food or functional food do not qualify for certification to NSF/ANSI 455.4 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.

2. NSF ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification vs. NSF GMP Registration ProgramsThe NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification and NSF GMP Registration are both developed in accordance with 21 CFR Part 1.9, 21 CFR Part 11, 21 CFR Part 111 andFSMA regulations.Key Differences Pre-Audit documentationA company seeking certification to NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification must provide documents to NSF at minimum of one (1) business week prior to thescheduled audit date.Documents required include but are not limited to:5 Company organizational chart Site plan Process flow diagram List of products and technologies included in the scope of the audit Typical shift/schedule patterns Standard operating procedures index/table of contents Regulatory inspection history (past five years) Site regulatory registration 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.

NSF ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification vs. NSF GMP Registration Programs (cont’d) Document formatThe NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP standard document structure is based on an ISO 9001 format while the NSF GMP Registration Requirements document structure isbased on a Quality Management Systems format.NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP StandardNSF GMP Registration RequirementsContext ofOrganizationElectronicRecords &SignaturesImprovementAdministration& RegulatoryQualityManagementLeadershipWarehouse andDistributionGMPRegistrationNSF/ANSI ion &Process ControlsFood SafetyFacilities6 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.

2. NSF ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification vs. NSF GMP Registration Programs (cont’d) Audit Grade RuleAudit grade calculation is based on the number and severity of the nonconformances defined by the standard. The result obtained in your NSF/ANSI 455-2GMP audit may differ from your NSF GMP Registration audit.NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP CertificationGrade RuleNSF GMP RegistrationGrade A00 7A009 or fewer01 70010 to 17008 to 15019 or fewer01 15 (8 to 15*)0018 to 26110 to 17016 to 22(16 to 23*)00029 or fewer 1––0027 or more0 2–0118 or more01 18 ( 16*)0210 or more00 27 ( 24*)03 or more0 or more1 or more0 or more0 or moreBCDBCFail*R ecommended changes by NSF submitted to NSF/ANSI 455-2 Joint Committee to remove thegaps and/or overlap of grades.

2. NSF ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification vs. NSF GMP Registration Programs (cont’d) Post-Audit deadlinesNSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification and NSF GMP Registration have similar post audit processes, however NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP has a shorter corrective actionreview timeframe, as shown in the process flow below.NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP CertificationApprove CARReceive GMPCertificationGrade IssuancePerform AuditConduct ReportTechnical ReviewIssue Audit and CAR Reports– (10 days)*Submit CARs** to NSFConnect – (10 days)Legend:Review CAR(5 days)Reject CARNSF ResponsibilityRework CAR(5 days)Client ResponsibilitySubmit CAR ReworkNSF Connect* Days are calculated from the last day of the audit.** Overdue CARs shall result in suspension or denial of certification.NSF GMP RegistrationApprove CARReceive GMPRegistrationGrade IssuancePerform AuditConduct ReportTechnical ReviewIssue Audit and CAR Reports– (5 days)*Legend:NSF ResponsibilitySubmit CARs** to NSFConnect – (30 days)Review CARReject CARRework CARClient Responsibility* Days are calculated from the last day of the audit.** Overdue CARs may result in suspension or denial of certification.8Submit CAR ReworkNSF Connect 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.

2. NSF ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification vs. NSF GMP Registration Programs (cont’d) Repeat NonconformancesNonconformances cited during a previous audit that are not corrected by the next scheduled audit shall be assessed as Repeat nonconformances.Nonconformance cited are based on risk in accordance to the definition in the standard of Critical, Major and Minor.NSF/ANSI 455-2 GMP Certification9 A repeat Minor nonconformance is elevated to a Majornonconformance if not closed out within three (3) monthsof the certification audit. An amended report is issued with the revisednonconformance classification. This may impact theaudit grade. Failure to provide objective evidence within the three (3)month period may result in Suspension. Monitoring audit is conducted within six (6) months of thecertification audit.NSF GMP Registration A repeat Minor nonconformance is not elevated to aMajor nonconformance. Failure to close out repeat nonconformances may result toa suspension. 2020 NSF International – Unless otherwise specified, no part of this document may be reproduced or utilized in any form by any other means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying andmicrofilm, without permission of NSF International.
