Audits

Guaranteeing the reliability of a supplier and the quality of their goods is vital to buyers. Our audits ensure a supplier has the required competence, compliance and capability to meet contractual requirements. 

Audits are designed to verify that a factory operates within accepted social welfare standards and local labour laws. Our auditing process also helps factories to improve their efficiency and minimise defects during production. 

We offer different kinds of audit: 

Factory Audits 

Our factory audits help buyers to reliably and efficiently select and maintain a highly qualified vendor base. We provide assessment of a manufacturer’s Quality Management System (QMS) and perform surveillance audits of their production processes. 

• Factory Quality Audit,  

Also known as Manufacturing Audit or Quality Management System (QMS) Audit, is a cornerstone of quality assurance. It encompasses supplier audits as well, forming a comprehensive quality verification program.  

Supplier Qualification 

We evaluate your supplier’s performance against quality compliance standards and requirements. The main objective is to ensure that your supplier is capable of producing goods on time and to the required quality. 

Our audits are designed to provide a holistic assessment of your suppliers' capabilities and processes. The purpose of this program is twofold: to minimize risks and enhance supply chain performance. By evaluating the capability and capacity of new suppliers, the QMS audit forms a critical foundation for your quality assurance program.
