SFSPac® for K-12 School Nutrition Programs
In 1992, the SFSPac Program was developed to focus solely on
K-12 school nutrition departments and to provide School Nutrition
professionals the ability to better manage and control their sanitation
and safety programs. Over the years, we’ve worked closely with the
School Nutrition Association to continuously improve the SFSPac Product
System and SFSPac Programming we provide.
School Nutrition Services is passionate about food safety and understands that it is more
than just products and procedures. It is critical that food service
professionals are provided with practical tools they can use in their
day-to-day operations. SNS will partner with you to help ensure food service
areas are clean, safe and compliant. The SFSPac Program offers a
complete system that includes scheduled visits from a professional
SNS/SFSPac technician who provides the education and documentation needed to
verify a successfully operating Food Safety System.
The SFSPac Program is a national program that delivers on-the-job
staff training, standardization of procedures and supplies,
documentation of results, OSHA and HACCP
training and compliance verification—all for one set cost. The SFSPac Food Safety and Sanitation Program is used in thousands of K-12 schools throughout the
United States and is considered the industry’s premier sanitation and
safety system.
The SFSPac Program allows you to concentrate on the more important
challenge of managing your department along with the ultimate goal of
satisfying your customers—the kids!
Process & Benefits
Shared Savings — The SFSPac Program is designed to provide so much
more than just cleaning products and procedures; it’s a complete
sanitation solution for school nutrition departments. We offer your
district the state-of-the-art purchasing methods used in lean
manufacturing operation. Food safety procedures, cleaning materials,
education, documentation and verification are bundled together to

budgeting, eliminates the need for purchase orders and, most
importantly, provides the comfort of knowing that each school nutrition
operation is receiving the attention it needs to meet your district
objectives.
HACCP Compliance — As long time advocates
of food safety we understand your commitment to children and the
mandates you face. It’s our job to provide you with the most accurate
information and tools available to help ensure your success. Working
with the most respected school nutrition experts, the SFSPac Program
offers a comprehensive HACCP Food Safety
Verification Program, and when necessary, can design a custom program
built for your district’s unique menu, food preparation and operational
needs. The SFSPac Program includes a standardized system for confirming
procedures are implemented properly. Our SNS/SFSPac technicians provide
ongoing verification and electronic documentation of compliance as well
as corrective actions to ensure your food safety program is working
properly.
Environmental Responsibility — As a division of PortionPac Chemical
Corporation, the SFSPac Program has a unique advantage to help schools
meet their environmental goals. PortionPac has more than 40 years worth
of leadership in environmental responsibility. Recent recognition
includes the Chicago Manufacturing Center’s Sustainable Leadership
Program, Mayor Daley’s GreenWorks Award and the State of Illinois
Governor’s Pollution Prevention Award.
The SFSPac Program was developed for school food service using these
same environmental, social and economic principles. As a result, the
SFSPac Program reduces the use of energy, water and cleaning materials
as well as reduces the volume of waste generated by your department.
This positively impacts your bottom line and overall employee and
student health.
Education & Training
A professional SNS/SFSPac technician visits each kitchen on a set
schedule to help monitor your Food Safety System. The technician will
focus on a food safety topic chosen from a comprehensive list of Kid
Clean® Education Modules provided by SNA for 1 CEU
credit. To supplement the Education Modules, the SFSPac Program also provides written and multimedia procedures as well as
product and procedure guides and charts. If corrective action
re-education is necessary, the technician will provide it on the spot.
Our most experienced technicians are SFSPac Certified and have
successfully completed SNA Certification, ServSafe® Certification, the OSHA Awareness Course and CPR training.
Support
Our technicians are always there to help implement your SFSPac
Program. They use handheld computers to gather information for service
reports. Those reports are sent after each service rotation noting
training conducted as well as issues you need to be aware of. We make
sure you never get blindsided by an issue relating to sanitation and
safety. It’s like having an additional supervisor in the field whose
sole job is to focus on sanitation and safety.
