Shared Audits |
|
|
| Cosmetic industries have to perform many suppliers’ audits. This situation could cause problematic issues for all parties: |
|
 |
|
- The number of suppliers to be audited is too large for internal resources
- Some suppliers reject audits due to the number of audit requests
- The volume of business with some suppliers is too low |
|
|
