Factory Audits
A Factory Audit (or Quality System and Compliance Audits) is a systematic evaluation of the quality system and responsible business practices of a supplier or manufacturer.
Factory Audit and Vendor Assessment Services
A good partner can make your business easier while an unaccountable one may bring headache and disaster. Regardless what the vendor tells you, an essential step to start is to get your validated first-hand report. Whether you just need some basic information to avoid scams or ensure factory-only deals, or to get deep into the manufacturer’s conditions and performance, factory audit before order is always helpful in the overseas sourcing process.
Our comprehensive solutions of factory audits ensure that factories align with your requirements in terms of quality management and ethical standards, including simple factory audit, comprehensive factory audit, social compliance audit, GMP audit, and retailer compliance audit.
Factory Audit by Type
Simple Factory Audit
Verify basic facts about the vendor or manufacturer, like an in-person walkthrough tour on your own, to avoid scams, confirm legitimacy and production capabilities.
Comprehensive Technical Audit
Comprehensively evaluate potential new suppliers’ quality management systems and verify their ability to meet your quality, safety, and lead-time requirements.
Social Compliance Audit
Ensure that your factory is socially and ethically compliant and responsible, and identifies specific areas of deficiencies that require improvement.
GMP Audit
Confirm that your pharmaceutical, medical or food production facility adheres to regulatory standards across all processes, from development through packaging.
