Abstract
Integrating the Halal Product Assurance System (HPAS) with Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS) is essential for ensuring that food products are safe, high-quality, and halal-compliant. This study examines the implementation of an integrated model combining HPAS, ISO 22000:2018, and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) in a perishable products company. Data were gathered through document review, direct observation, and structured questionnaires, with performance evaluated using the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and a composite index. The assessment covered twelve key performance indicators: documentation, human resource roles, food safety culture, logistics and storage, risk control, productivity, customer satisfaction, labeling and branding, product quality, waste minimization, hygiene and sanitation, and Halal Product Process (HPP) implementation. Results show a performance score of 92%, categorized as excellent. The company maintains stringent hygiene and sanitation measures at every stage-from raw material receipt to final distribution-minimizing contamination risks and preserving halal integrity. The integrated system has proven effective, supported by the recognition that perishable materials demand disciplined and continuous control. This integration also strengthens consumer trust and market competitiveness. The findings provide practical insights for perishable food industries seeking to implement a high-performance halal-food safety integration model that supports operational excellence and long-term sustainability.
