Free Manufacturing Plant Visit Checklist For Confident Audits

A factory looks impressive on a video call; on the floor, the truth shows. This comprehensive, risk-based framework evaluates and scores manufacturing partners across ten weighted sections, so you can approve suppliers objectively rather than on a good impression.

What's inside

• Company and legal verification: registration, licensing, ownership, and financial stability
• Production capability: machinery condition, capacity, maintenance, and scalability
• Engineering and process control: SOPs, SPC, calibration, and first-article procedures
• Quality control systems: incoming, in-process, and final inspections (AQL), traceability, and CAPA
• Supplier and raw material control: approved supplier management and material traceability
• Compliance and safety: certifications, social compliance, and worker protection
• Workforce, production management, packaging, and logistics controls
• IP protection and risk management: NDAs, tooling ownership, and business continuity
