Before choosing your final supplier, you will need an effective way to check out any potential supplier’s factory and processes. Our experience Factory Audit Team inspectors will:
- Verify the factory existence

- Check the credentials of the person you’ve been dealing with prior to our involvement
- See first-hand their quality procedures employed and the factory floor conditions.
The Factory Audit report will include Factory profile, Factory organization, Production equipment and capacity, Quality assurance system, Technical standard, R&D, Supplier management, Hygiene, Environment and Security and Social accountability.
What can we do?
Currently dealing with a Chinese company but things seem to always get lost in translation? Experienced the frustration or constantly talking to different people, repeatedly explaining your position to be met with painfully slow response times or non-related answers? How about constant price increases or delays in delivery? You are not be the first!
Knows Sourcing can take over the management of your current supplier(s). Now it becomes our challenge, freeing you up to focus on business. When this happens, suppliers are usually just as relieved as you are, freeing you up to focus on growing and managing your business.
Supplier Evaluation
If the sourcing requirements are found to be feasible for your product, we move on to evaluating the supplier’s capability to supply the products based on your specifications and budget. If we find any discrepancies, we will notify you immediately to avoid future problems or delays.
Request for Information (RFI), Request for Quote (RFQ), Request for Proposal (RFP)
We have created a detailed questionnaire over our years dealing with countless suppliers. Knows Sourcing provides these questionnaires to prospective suppliers thereby helping you gauge the suppliers’ capability in an instant and select the most preferred.
Suppler Bid Analysis
Our team provides you a detailed analysis of the bids placed by prospective suppliers, removing the guess work and making it easy for you to study the market, competitors, and the prices on offer.
Supplier Score Card Report
A supplier score card report after a comprehensive analysis of suppliers makes it easy for you to decide on the best supplier. Often, price is not the only consideration and greater success often is achieved by not taking the cheapest quotation.
Transaction Management
After a supplier relationship has been established, our team can take care of the tasks such as your purchase order management, delivery tracking, and payments processing with one or multiple chosen suppliers.
