01
Fabric inspection
Review material against approved requirements before the bulk programme proceeds.
Quality & Compliance
Quality built into
every stage.
Quality assurance is a coordinated process, with defined checkpoints and buyer-specific requirements guiding each review.
02
Sample & pre-production approval
Align fit, measurements, construction, trims and finish before production.
03
Measurement & colour control
Check dimensional consistency and colour against approved standards.
04
Workmanship & inline inspection
Review construction, stitching and process consistency during production.
05
Final & packing inspection
Coordinate finished-garment and packing checks against the buyer programme.
06
Buyer-specific requirements
Define test, audit and inspection expectations with the selected facility.
Documentation.
Then assurance.
Certification and audit status varies by manufacturing facility and programme. Relevant documentation is reviewed and confirmed against the factory selected for each buyer requirement.
Programme requirements may include BSCI, WRAP, Better Work, GRS, RCS, FAMA, Walmart requirements, Nirapon, RSC, FCCA or buyer-specific audits. These names describe potential buyer requirements, and do not establish ANS certification or universal partner approval.

Quality and evidence questions
What is agreed in a quality plan?
Define measurement tolerances, materials, workmanship, inspection stages, sampling approach and any required tests for the selected programme. A plan is not proof that a test or inspection has passed.
How should certification evidence be assessed?
Review the named holder, facility, relationship, certified scope, reference, validity and permitted logo use. A logo alone cannot establish that a photographed garment or every manufacturing partner is certified.
Can buyer-specific testing be discussed?
Share the destination market and test requirements during development review. Applicable standards, laboratory arrangements, costs and evidence are confirmed for the programme; no testing result is assumed.
