The right scope for the decision in front of you.

T1 checks the consistency of one proposed purchase. T2 follows important unresolved questions through relevant records. Advanced work is agreed case by case.

T1

Supplier Verification

A defined review of the supplier and the company, documents and product claims behind one proposed purchase.

USD 149

24–48 hours after complete intake

The company, product model and supporting documents need to match.

When this fits

Buyers who already have a supplier, a proposed product and transaction materials to check before committing.

Standard scope

  • 1 supplier and 1 primary legal entity
  • 1 specified product model
  • Up to 2 agreed certificate or authorisation claims
  • Agreed quotation, contract and payment-related name comparison
  • A 3–5 page decision memo with sources, gaps and limits
See the checks and source limitations

Company and transaction materials

  • Identify the primary Chinese legal entity and its accessible registration status.
  • Compare names and dates across the buyer-provided quotation, contract or other agreed document versions.
  • Compare a supplied payment-related company name with the contracting entity where relevant; matching names do not establish bank-account ownership.

Product and claim scope

  • Record the exact product model, variant and intended market supplied by the buyer.
  • For up to two agreed certificate or authorisation claims, check the applicable issuer or official record, holder, status and available model scope.
  • Separate matches, material discrepancies, missing information and points the available sources cannot verify.

Delivery

A 3–5 page evidence-based decision memo: what aligns, what conflicts, what remains open and which question to resolve before signing or paying. A numerical risk score is not promised.

Not included

Additional entities, product models or unlimited document versions; direct supplier contact, bank-account ownership confirmation, laboratory testing or product inspection.

T2

Enhanced Supplier Due Diligence

Investigate material gaps in a proposed transaction through focused company, relationship and public-record research.

USD 349

3–5 business days after complete intake

Remote

When this fits

Buyers whose transaction contains a material discrepancy or relationship question that needs more than document comparison.

Standard scope

  • Everything in the standard T1 scope
  • Up to 2 directly related entities when material to the question
  • Question-led ownership, history, address and public-record research
  • Seller, exporter, manufacturer, holder or payee relationship where relevant
  • Explain which material gap is resolved and which remains open
See the checks and source limitations

Investigate the material gap

  • Trace up to two directly related entities when needed to explain the seller, exporter, manufacturer, certificate holder or payment entity.
  • Use accessible ownership, corporate history, address, business-scope, litigation, enforcement or administrative records only when relevant to the question.
  • Test plausible explanations against the available documents and records; distinguish a supported relationship from a supplier statement.
  • Explain whether the added evidence resolves the question, changes the buyer’s next step or leaves a material point open.

Not included

Direct supplier confirmation, legal opinion, bank-account ownership verification, site visits, product testing or unrelated entities.

Supplier contact and site work are separately scoped—not included in T1 or T2.

Structured Supplier Interview

A consent-based interview designed around unresolved questions and new, attributable evidence.

Review scope

A scoped interview informed by the existing document review; we agree participants, questions and evidence requested before contact.

What the interview records

  • The interviewee’s name and role, and answers about the specified model and seller, manufacturer or OEM/ODM relationship.
  • Statements on assembly, testing, packaging, outsourcing, certificate ownership and available records where relevant.
  • What was said, shown live, supported by a document or still unverified; any restricted access is recorded with its reason.
Timing
Agreed in the quotation after supplier participation is confirmed
Not included
An independent site visit, production-capacity guarantee, product inspection or laboratory conclusion.
Supplier consent
Written consent required

A declined interview or video request is documented as unavailable evidence, with the stated reason and effect on the original question. It is not automatically a high-risk finding.

On-the-ground Evidence Collection

A consent-based visit to record what is observable at an agreed place and time.

Review scope

Site access, observer, location, questions and permitted records are confirmed in the quotation.

Site evidence

  • Record location, visit time, host and role, signage and alignment with the stated legal entity.
  • Describe visible equipment, activity and presence of the specified product without inferring ownership, capacity or future output.
  • Record supplier explanations, restricted areas and outsourcing claims separately from direct observations.
  • Provide contextual photographs with captions stating what each image does and does not establish.
Timing
Agreed in the quotation after site access and observer availability are confirmed
Not included
Product pass/fail, wattage or interface testing, AQL sampling, quality release, production or shipment inspection.

Ongoing Supplier Review

A scoped pilot to revisit an agreed supplier baseline and explain meaningful changes.

Review scope

Supplier count, sources, review interval, response window and fee are defined before the pilot.

Baseline and change review

  • Record agreed legal entities, models, relevant certificate claims and unresolved questions as the starting baseline.
  • At the agreed interval, revisit available company, ownership, address, litigation, enforcement, administrative and relevant certificate records.
  • Compare new quotations, product documents or payment instructions only when the buyer supplies them.
  • Explain the effect of material changes on the existing buying decision and identify the next evidence needed.
Timing
Review frequency and term agreed in the quotation
Not included
Real-time or 24/7 alerts, unlimited suppliers or cases, automatic discovery of private payment changes, site visits or purchase decisions.

Review scope

We define the entities, evidence sources, people, deliverables and review cadence before accepting the work.

Possible agreed work

  • Coordinate several defined verification questions across buyer-nominated suppliers.
  • Maintain a human-reviewed record of evidence, open issues, last review dates and agreed next steps.
  • Combine remote research, consent-based interviews or site evidence only when individually scoped and feasible.
Timing

A conclusion you can question

For each agreed question, the memo records the supplier claim, applicable question, source and date, located record, cross-check, finding, effect on this transaction, limitation and next evidence. An unavailable record is not proof that the claim is false.

How we verify supplier claims

Questions before you book

When does the delivery clock start?

After payment is confirmed and the required intake information is complete. Each service states its delivery period. Waiting for missing documents is not included.

When is self-research enough?

If you only need company records and can interpret them for this purchase, a data tool may be enough. Ask us to review a defined transaction when the documents or relationships need independent explanation.

What does T2 add to T1?

T1 compares the submitted company, documents and specified product. T2 investigates material gaps using relevant corporate, relationship and public records within its fixed entity limit. It does not guarantee a favourable answer.

What if a point cannot be verified?

We state the source checked, the access or evidence limit, and the next document or person that could resolve the question. No record found is not the same as proof that something does not exist.

Does a matching payment name prove bank-account ownership?

No. We can compare the name in supplied payment instructions with the contracting entity and related records. Only an appropriate banking or authorised process can establish account ownership.

Does no red flag mean the supplier is safe?

No. The memo reflects the agreed questions and evidence available at the review date. Delivery, product quality and future conduct are not guaranteed.

What if more entities or documents need review?

We define document versions and entities before work begins. If the case exceeds the standard scope, you may narrow it, approve a separate quotation or seek the applicable refund under the payment terms.

Do you inspect quality or find suppliers?

No. Core services review buyer-nominated suppliers and transaction evidence. We do not perform product QC, AQL inspection, laboratory testing, sourcing or supplier placement.

Does a genuine certificate cover the quoted model?

Not necessarily. The holder, model variant, rating, date and intended market must be compared with the applicable record. A genuine document is not a product test.

What if a related company receives payment?

Different entities can have a legitimate arrangement. We document the names and available relationship or authorisation evidence; we do not infer fraud or verify the receiving bank account from a name match.

Not sure which level fits?

Tell us the transaction question, exact model and material already available. We will confirm the applicable scope before work begins.
