To verify that suppliers uphold our VCoE requirements, our in-house experts and commissioned third-party assessors conduct announced, semi-announced, or unannounced assessments, as well as subsequent follow-up and assessment visits. For our core product lines, we assess all supplier facilities at least annually. We also annually assess subcontractors with identified risk factors, such as the presence of foreign migrant workers.(p.5)
