Supplier and process audits
A second-party audit is an assessment of a supplier by a customer, either directly or through people acting on the customer’s behalf. We translate your purchasing and quality expectations into audit criteria and review supplier practices against them.
- Selection and assessment of new suppliers before approval
- Periodic and risk-based audits of existing suppliers
- Review of conformity with customer requirements and technical specifications
- Assessment of production, quality control and traceability processes
- Combined review of documents, records and on-site practices
