Put your production capability in front of the right apparel projects
Buyer discovery starts with a supplier profile that can be assessed. Present the facility, available capacity or inventory, technical scope, and supporting records clearly so project fit can be reviewed on evidence.
Onboarding, qualification, and matching do not guarantee order allocation, volume, or timing. Commercial terms are agreed for each purchase order.
Qualification path
Four stages, with evidence at each step
Scope and records should correspond to the proposed facility and work. See the supplier onboarding overview for related profile context.
- 01
Screen
Share facility, product scope, processes, and current operating information.
- 02
Audit
Review applicable facility, compliance, machinery, and quality records within an agreed scope.
- 03
Trial
Assess a sample or trial against technical requirements and agreed acceptance criteria.
- 04
Qualify
Keep the supplier profile and evidence organized for project-specific consideration.
What can be offered
Make the offer type and evidence easy to assess
Available inventory
Identify goods or materials, quantity, location, condition, and records supporting stated availability.
Stocklots
Provide lot-specific composition, usable quantity, condition, documentation, and available inspection details.
Build a traceable record set
Keep machinery and process details, compliance documents, quality procedures, inspection records, and offer data current and tied to the correct site.
Keep terms order-specific
A project match does not settle price, payment timing, volume, or award. Confirm details in the quotation and purchase order for the transaction.
Supplier questions
Before you submit a profile
Does joining guarantee apparel orders?
No. Onboarding and qualification make a supplier profile reviewable for relevant projects; they do not guarantee order allocation, volume, or timing. Fit is evaluated for each opportunity.
What records should a supplier prepare?
Prepare current facility and capacity information, machinery and process details, compliance and audit evidence, quality procedures, and records supporting inventory or production offers. Keep records traceable to the relevant site and date.
How are suppliers screened?
Supplier screening has four stages: initial screening, audit, trial or sample review, and qualification. Confirm evidence and scope for the supplier and project.
What kinds of supply offers can be listed?
Offers may cover production capacity, available inventory, or stocklots. Describe quantity, timing, product or material details, and evidence for the offer submitted.
When are commercial payment terms decided?
Commercial terms are set for the specific purchase order. Confirm the agreed payment schedule and other terms in the order documents; no universal schedule is stated here.
How does a supplier match with a project?
Matching considers buyer product and timing needs alongside documented capability, availability, quality controls, and compliance evidence. A match is project-specific and is not a promise of an award.
