In today’s highly competitive consumer market, retailers and buyers need a vendor base that will partner with them to meet all aspects of production, from design and quality, to product life cycle times and delivery requirements.
As such, factory assessment audits are being employed by companies to assess the production capability and performance of the factories they employ against proven quality principles i.e., a factory’s ability to deliver consistent quality management over time, rather than at one given time or only for certain products.
With Quality Management, Good Manufacturing Practices, Product Control, Process Control, and Personnel forming the core areas addressed by a factory assessment, our Factory Assessment tool can help your company:
- Evaluate capabilities of potential new suppliers as part of the selection process.
- Identify key strengths and weaknesses of your existing supplier base.
- Make key production capabilities and sourcing information readily available to your sourcing managers.
- Monitor and track progress of factories employed by your suppliers over time to drive quality throughout the manufacturing process.
- Bring compliance managers, buyers, and suppliers together to make tangible improvements.
- Bring Audit Managers and Auditors to actively collaborate with Compliance Managers, Buyers, Suppliers and Factories in efficiently managing audits and audit data.
