What is a Supplier Verification Audit?
A Supplier Verification Audit, or Vendor Evaluation, is a detailed supply chain due diligence procedure conducted to validate and assess the legitimacy, reliability, and operational capability of prospective suppliers. These audits mitigate potential risks such as fraud, quality issues, compliance breaches, and disruptions within the supply chain.
