Case Study: GNP Company achieves streamlined document management and faster audit readiness with Qualtrax Compliance Software

GNP - Customer Case Study

GNP Company (formerly Gold’n Plump) is a Midwest chicken processor known for a culture of quality, innovation and continuous improvement — in 2010 nearly 1,000 employee suggestions drove significant savings and engagement. As third‑party food‑safety audits (like SQF 2000 Level II) became more demanding, GNP struggled with inconsistent, hard‑to‑track paperwork and needed a scalable, company‑wide document management approach.

GNP implemented Qualtrax through a cross‑functional steering committee, department ambassadors and an intensive training rollout, loading standardized templates and setting up routed approvals and a single document repository. The result was consistent document formats, traceable histories, faster approvals, easier audit preparation and better process ownership — improvements that have reduced audit pain, increased day‑to‑day efficiency and reinforced the company’s continuous‑improvement culture.
