Identification and assessment of suppliers

The prior selection of suppliers provides an organisation with a first impression, but this is not sufficient to award a firm contract. The evaluation of a supplier includes the evaluation of:

• Facilities.
• Technical ability.
• Production capacity.
• Quality requirements: facilities, staff, methodologies, environment, etc.
• Logistics capacity.
• Compliance with other types of requirements: environmental, occupational health and safety, social responsibility, etc.
• Product quality, including the taking of samples and testing in an independent laboratory.
