"We are not a sourcing agent, we are factory direct partner..." We help our clients get exactly what they want at the best possible price through our in-depth knowledge of design process, manufacturing, quality control, and focus on where it is needed most: China.

Supplier Audits

Source the factory best suited to your requirements.

MIND personnel survey the potential of new suppliers on-site and provide detailed reports on the general operations, quality systems, qualifications and capabilities of the supplier as a viable source.

Supplier Process Control and Quality System

MIND supplier audits evaluate all manufacturing process control systems for existing or new suppliers. Each audit report covers several areas, including evaluations of management, quality control methods, non-conforming materials, corrective action, and inspection and test equipment.

Social Accountability

These evaluations focus on the following areas: Health and safety, discrimination, disciplinary practices, working hours, compensation, management practices, forced labor, freedom of association and child labor laws.

MIND auditors have experience with audits for such customers as Sears, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, Homedepot, Lowes, Target, Toys'R Us and many more. Our auditors conduct preliminary and/or final audits to ensure continuous improvement goals are being identified and achieved.

Supplier Development

Reduce sourcing risk and cost

Some suppliers appear qualified at first but then fail to deliver the needed quality after time and money have been invested in project development. Other suppliers have many of the desired capabilities for your projects but are inconsistent in quality performance. Supplier switching costs can be very high and the risks to quality and delivery are unacceptable.

MIND supplier development services help resolve these problems in a timely and cost effective manner. Our team documents your problem issues and requirements for the supplier, audits the supplier facility, analyses the supplier operating conditions, creates a corrective development profile together with the supplier, and then guides the supplier through successful completion.
