China Supplier Due Diligence
A legitimate company can still be the wrong partner for your order. Look beyond identity to the commercial and operational questions that matter to your project.
Start from your exposure
A long production run, dedicated tooling or reliance on one factory creates different questions from a small trial order. We agree what the decision involves and build the review around that exposure. The depth of work depends on the information available and the access agreed.
Review the business and its operating model
The scope may include identity, registration and ownership information where available, supplier documents, production arrangements and subcontracting. We ask how the proposed order fits the supplier's capabilities and commitments, and which commercial relationships need clarification.
Test the assumptions behind the purchase
Who is responsible for the goods, tooling and key components? What happens if a subcontractor or material changes? Which records support the claimed capacity? We organize the evidence and unresolved questions so you can compare the business risk with the planned commitment.
Different from initial verification
Verification is an initial identity and document check. Due diligence connects wider findings to a particular purchasing decision. It may recommend a factory visit, sample validation, revised terms or an alternative source. It is not a credit guarantee, legal opinion or complete view of undisclosed information.
What to send us
- Supplier details and available company documents
- Proposed order value, terms and timeline
- Tooling, exclusivity or dependency concerns
- Known issues and the questions your team needs answered
What you receive
- A scoped business and operational assessment
- Evidence sources, access limits and unanswered questions
- Priorities for further checks and commercial decisions
How we manage the work
Define the decision
Identify the commitment and the risks you want examined.
Gather and challenge evidence
Review available information and seek clarification from relevant parties.
Present the assessment
Separate evidence from assumptions and identify practical next steps.
Questions before you start
Can you access every company record?
No. Availability varies, and some records may be restricted or not supplied. Missing information and access limits are explicitly recorded.
Is this the same as supplier verification?
No. Verification establishes basic identity and document consistency. Due diligence examines a wider set of questions tied to a particular commercial commitment.
Does the report tell me that it is safe to pay?
It provides findings to support your decision, not a payment guarantee. Payment controls, contracts and specialist advice may still be necessary for the transaction.
