Make More Informed Supplier and Sourcing Decisions
Confirming Supplier Credibility, Capabilities and Readiness to Support Informed Procurement
Intertek's supplier verification confirms the credibility, capabilities and operational readiness of your suppliers. By reducing sourcing risks, it supports informed procurement decisions.
Sourcing depends on suppliers that can be relied upon. Supplier verification helps organisations understand who they are working with before decisions are made, as part of Intertek's tradeable and customised solutions for global trade.
Three aspects of a supplier
Supplier verification looks at three aspects of your suppliers:
- Credibility: establishes whether a supplier is a credible trading partner.
- Capabilities: establishes what the supplier is able to do.
- Operational readiness: establishes whether the supplier is ready to operate.
Reducing sourcing risks
Sourcing risks arise when decisions are made without a clear understanding of a supplier. Confirming credibility, capabilities and operational readiness removes much of that uncertainty, helping organisations approach sourcing with greater clarity.
Supporting procurement decisions
The information gained through verification supports informed procurement decisions. Procurement teams can compare and select suppliers on the basis of confirmed information rather than assumption.
Key benefits
- Reduced sourcing risks: greater certainty about the suppliers you choose to work with.
- Informed procurement decisions: decisions based on confirmed credibility, capabilities and readiness.
- Customised solutions: a service offered within Intertek's tradeable and customised solutions.
