Inspection & Audit
Supplier Verification
Supplier verification checks the claims a supplier makes against available evidence: legal identity, registration status, contacts and the documents they provide. It is a structured, documented step for buyers who need to confirm who they are dealing with before committing funds.
When it fits
When to verify a supplier
A supplier-provided business licence or certificate needs to be checked for consistency.
You want confirmation that the name on the bank account matches the contracting entity.
You are consolidating supplier records for your own compliance file.
You need a standard, repeatable check for every new supplier.

Process
Verification process
- 01
Claims list
We write down exactly what the supplier claims — identity, registrations, capabilities, certifications.
- 02
Evidence mapping
Each claim is mapped to the document or record that could support it.
- 03
Cross-checks
Records and documents are reviewed for consistency; gaps are recorded.
- 04
Statement
We issue a written statement marking each claim verified, unverified or contradicted.
Honest boundaries
Verification limits
- Verification confirms information, not performance — a verified licence does not guarantee product quality.
- Some records are not publicly accessible; where evidence cannot be obtained we say so.
- Certifications claimed by suppliers require separate validation with the issuing body or qualified assessors.
Frequently asked questions
What can be verified from public records?
Business registration, legal name, address and some ownership/status information, depending on jurisdiction and record availability.
Do you verify bank accounts?
Where the supplier provides account details and evidence allows, we check consistency between the account name and the contracting entity. Full bank verification is subject to banking cooperation.
Is verification a certification?
No. We issue verification findings about information; we are not a certification body and do not certify suppliers.
