The program aims to build suppliers’ inspection capacity and to improve their resilience in situations where third-party on-site inspection is unable to conduct. Throughout the program, buyers foster closer relationships with their suppliers, and thereby build a stronger supply chain.

The Supplier Self-Inspection Program is a sustained approach to ensure that suppliers meet buyers’ inspection requirements through a program of on-going assessment, training and monitoring.

• Assessment: assess current competency of suppliers
• Training: use of on-site or online training to train suppliers on inspection principle, skills, processes, critical points, and other specification as per buyers’ inspection protocols and certification requirements
• Monitoring: monitor inspection quality of suppliers by un-announced audits or other measures to ensure consistent quality delivery

Data from this program can be stored in Eurofins Assurance OnLine to deliver analytics to inform and optimize sourcing decisions.

The program is highly customizable, and particularly benefits buyers who are looking to strengthen their suppliers’ ability to both more effectively manage quality inspection and facilitate final inspection on site.
