SUPPLIER AUDITS
Factory audits are used to understand and independently evaluate the suppliers management system at the level of production, quality, environment, working conditions, etc., in comparison with international norms and standards.
They are always necessary if you are working with a supplier for the first time and you want to get up-to-date information on what type of partner you will be dealing with or if you plan to carry out a comprehensive and independent evaluation of a supplier in accordance with the requirements of international quality standards ISO 9001, VDA, TS 16949, AS9100.
The audit allows you to know the most important aspects of their quality system, production capacity, facilities, personnel, working conditions, etc., before making decisions to do business with it.

Factory audit
The main objective of the factory audit is to provide to the buyer a valuable information about a potential new supplier. This evaluation determines the supplier's ability to successfully fulfill a production order in the future, thus ensuring that the required quality and efficiency standards are met.

In the environmental audit, AQC group's certified auditors evaluate the supplier's commitment to environmental responsible practices and guarantee that your suppliers comply with international environmental laws and standards, especially compliance with the international environmental standard ISO 14001.
