Our Services
Factory Evaluation
Before placing an order in a new factory it is important for the customer to understand that their chosen manufacturer has the necessary infrastructure, systems, processes and capabilities to fulfill it. They also need to ensure that local and international standards of quality and safety are consistently maintained across all of their international vendors, and throughout the manufacturing and delivery process. We would also verify that the factory respects all national legal requirements, safe working conditions and fair labour practices.
Product Safety
Children wear brands in many countries must comply with all industry and legal requirements. The mandatory legal requirements are different for different countries. The requirements vary from designing a safe product to chemical compliance to flammability to nightwear regulations etc.
We help ensure that products shipped meet all requirements facilitating smooth business.
Supply Chain Management
It is crucial to a business to know that it’s sourcing a manufacturing site that employs quality systems and good manufacturing processes. Our comprehensive, tailored approaches illustrate what is really happening within supply chains. Our supply chain management services measure business risk on the following points.

Ethical Audits
Brands are increasingly held accountable not only for their own performance but also for the performance of their international supply chain, including the working conditions of factories in which a product is manufactured. Companies are increasingly using social auditing as a core function to meet demands for corporate accountability.
Typical social compliance audit may not illuminate all working condition problems and opportunities for improvement within any given business. Moreover it is being seen that independent audits conducted by the vendors themselves do not paint the correct picture, which makes for deep and worrisome challenges in terms of credibility and reliability.
C-TPAT Assessments
We have a team of experts that conducts C-TPAT assessments at the supplier base. With our expertise in C-TPAT security requirements, we assist in improving business efficiency and reduce risk wherever possible in the supply chain regarding security. This program calls upon importing businesses and service providers to establish policies enhancing their own security practices and those of business partners involved in the supply chain, based on C-TPAT security criteria, like – Business Partners Requirements, Container Security, Physical Access Controls, Personnel Security, Information Technology Security, Security Training and Threat Awareness.
