A government authority engaged First Key to play the role of a third-party auditor; the work comprised of reviewing and updating an application package, a Commercial Permittee Manual and Terms, Quality Assurance Guide, and Liquor Inspector job description. The First Key team assigned to this project were also expected to provide guidance on the unique alcohol production facility health and public safety risks, and to share best practices relevant to other liquor inspection checklists used across other jurisdictions. The objective of this work was met, which was to provide assurance and advice to the government authority on the management and governance of craft alcohol production.
