Absolutely. Our consultants visit your production unit in Bihar in person. We check your setup, run physical checks, and train your staff so they can answer the auditing officer's questions with confidence.
SMETA is a one-time external check report, done, shared, done. SA8000 is a certification that requires you to maintain the standard year-round, with annual checks and a recertification every 3 years. Most garment workshops need SMETA. A smaller number of key strategic suppliers are asked for SA8000. We'll confirm which one your buyer actually requires.
A registration gives you an official certificate (like ISO 9001). An check-up is a check-up: someone inspects your manufacturing unit and writes a report. Some standards like SMETA only give you an check-up report, not a certificate. Both are important for winning buyer trust.
