Every company wants to excel in the work they do and they do want to survive in the competitive market.  There are companies that rely on other units to finish the production and manufacturing process, these units are called supply units. Different materials and resources need to be procured; these are sent by the suppliers. It becomes the company’s responsibility to check the materials sent by the suppliers to make sure the finished product has quality. This is where Supplier Audits are done to check on the quality of materials sent by the supplier.

Let us look at some of the advantages of supplier audit

• More confidence on all the raw materials and services provided by the suppliers.
• Reduction in incoming rejections
