Factory Audit & Compliance Checks
On-site or remote audits covering capacity, quality systems, certifications, and ethical standards. You receive a structured report with red flags, recommendations, and go/no-go decisions.
Factory audits are essential for risk mitigation and quality assurance. Without proper due diligence, you risk production delays, quality issues, and compliance violations that can cost far more than the audit investment.
Why Factory Audits Matter
In global supply chains, trust cannot be assumed - it must be verified. A factory that looks reliable on paper may still face hidden issues: outdated machinery, inconsistent quality systems, unverified certifications, or poor working conditions.
Without thorough audits, companies risk late shipments, compliance failures, or reputational damage that can derail entire projects.
At AC-TR, we make sure your suppliers are not just saying the right things, but proving them.
Our Approach
Our audits go beyond a quick checklist. Each assessment combines **on-site or remote inspections** with a structured framework that evaluates:
- Capacity – Can the factory realistically handle your volumes and timelines?
- Quality systems – Are there robust processes, documentation, and traceability in place?
- Certifications – From ISO 9001 to IATF 16949, we validate certificates and test alignment with international standards.
- Ethical standards – Working conditions, health & safety, and environmental compliance are checked to safeguard your brand.
You receive a comprehensive audit report highlighting red flags, strengths, and actionable recommendations. This gives you the confidence to make go/no-go decisions based on evidence, not assumptions.
