Ⅰ. Technical synergy verification

Prioritize the inspection of whether the supplier has technical reserves that match the characteristics of stainless steel, including material formula R&D capabilities, special process processing experience (such as anti-rust coating technology), customized design cases of non-standard parts, etc. Technical synergy can significantly reduce the cost of later communication.

Ⅱ. Supply chain stability review

It is necessary to verify the supplier's raw material inventory turnover rate, production line automation level, emergency order response speed and other indicators. Suppliers with JIT (just-in-time) supply capabilities can effectively avoid the risk of material shortages.

Ⅲ. Quality certification system audit

Suppliers are required to provide ISO9001 quality management system certification, third-party test reports (such as SGS material analysis), defective product traceability mechanism and other certification documents. It is recommended to conduct on-site inspections of the equipment configuration of its quality inspection laboratory.

Ⅳ. Multi-dimensional evaluation of business reputation

Verify the supplier's reputation through channels such as industry association credit ratings, upstream and downstream customer interviews, and historical contract fulfillment rates. Focus on preventing shell companies or trade intermediaries from impersonating manufacturers.

The comprehensive use of the above evaluation system can systematically reduce cooperation risks and establish a pool of high-quality suppliers that meet the characteristics of the stainless steel industry.
