Suppliers Management and Development
We evaluate the quantitative and qualitative contribution of the suppliers to the success of the Customer’s company:

• Suppliers auditing and evaluation: We asses the capability, R&D, capacity, quality systems, and management skills;
• Supplier’s development and qualification/certification planning and execution. This step is a natural continuation to the Supplier auditing and evaluation step, and its objective is to bring the supplier to the levels required by our client.
• Suppliers network optimization;
• Evaluation of the risks associated with the existing suppliers.

Whether the objective is merely to assess how the supplier meets contractual commitments, or if the supplier is capable of implementing the improvements you need, then auditors can provide a valuable and professional independent supplier audit, based on our customer’s specific requirements.
We assess potential suppliers and audit existing suppliers' performance.
