Mackman, I went through my Compliance Review Dec 2009. Didn't get a safety audit, but full blown audit I had 48 hrs to have all my paperwork ready. Praise God, I came through with no dings, perfect score on it. The below is a LONG LIST of items you will need in place (EVEN IF YOU ARE AN O/O), it does not matter if you are the only person with your company, it must be looked at as a Company, including you being on a Drug Consortium (this is HUGE, and can get you shut down if not on the drug consortium) Below is a list of items and the reg you can find what it states for you.
