Building a Smarter, More Resilient Supply Chain Team

Supply chain resilience depends on the competence of those managing suppliers and compliance programs. Beyond certifications, today’s businesses need skilled professionals capable of identifying risks, auditing ethically, and driving supplier improvement. The Supply Chain & Auditing Skills Training program builds the capacity to evaluate suppliers effectively and ensure sustainable operations.

Our Second-Party Auditor Training teaches how to perform value-added supplier audits aligned with your organization’s standards—not just ISO checklists. Participants learn to assess processes, interview effectively, and issue reports that drive real corrective action.

The Social Compliance Auditor Course focuses on SA8000 and SMETA principles, covering ethical sourcing, worker welfare, and grievance systems. Participants master the soft skills necessary for confidential worker interviews, site observation, and reporting sensitive findings professionally and objectively.

Success Story

Supplier Audit Training Sharpens Procurement Team's Skills

The Challenge:

A multinational’s procurement team audited suppliers using checklists that failed to uncover systemic risks. They lacked the skills to evaluate process controls or assess compliance with social standards effectively.

Our Solution:

BQCIS conducted a 2-day customized supplier auditing course focused on process risk assessment, interviewing techniques, and objective evidence collection. The program used real supplier examples to simulate on-site scenarios and corrective action follow-ups.

The Result:

The team’s audits became significantly more consistent and insight-driven. They began detecting weaknesses early and supporting suppliers with improvement plans—reducing nonconformities by 45% and improving supplier reliability across regions.
