2nd Party Audits
Strengthen Supplier Relationships Through Customized Compliance & Performance Evaluations
What are 2nd Party Audits?
A 2nd party audit is conducted by a company (you) or a representative (like Vertic Arabia) on your suppliers, contractors, or service providers to ensure they meet your specific requirements.
Unlike 3rd party audits (which are typically for certification), 2nd party audits are tailored assessments focused on your business standards, contractual obligations, industry expectations, or internal processes. They’re essential for building a reliable and transparent supply chain.
