Enhance quality management and build a responsible and sustainable supply chain with a one-day amfori QMI audit.
As supply chains become more internationalized and intricate, the demand for visibility and quality intensifies. Many companies have their own audit criteria, but these create considerable quality management challenges, from inconsistent assessments and a lack of visibility to duplicated efforts and a drain on resources.
Recognizing these multiple issues and the need for a common standard, amfori and partners created the amfori Quality Management Initiative (QMI). This standardized, integrated approach to quality management system audits enables non-food organizations to monitor and enhance producers’ quality management and build responsible and sustainable supply chains for global buyers, brands and retailers.
Our one-day, on-site amfori QMI audit assesses the quality management capabilities of producers in China, India, Vietnam and Thailand across four areas:
amfori QMI audit data is stored transparently and efficiently in the amfori Sustainability Platform, alongside amfori BSCI (social) and amfori BEPI (environmental) reports. This enables members to identify best practices and quality improvement areas, and provides them with one place to monitor all their environmental, social and governance (ESG) data.
