FAQ
Factory audit questions.
Can QIS verify whether a supplier is a real factory?
Yes. QIS can visit the supplier site, check basic business identity, production area, equipment and whether manufacturing activity matches the product category.
Is a factory audit enough to replace product inspection?
No. A factory audit checks supplier capability and risk. Product inspection checks actual order quality before shipment. For new suppliers, both are recommended.
When should Amazon sellers audit a supplier?
Before paying deposit, before scaling order volume, or after repeated quality problems that suggest weak process control.
