CERTIFICATION VERIFICATION

Certifications, Confirmed — Not Just Claimed

Verification of industry certifications beyond the core set — BSCI, Higg Index, bluesign®, BCI and Fair Trade, confirmed directly with issuing bodies.

Why Certification Verification

A certification logo on a supplier's website is easy to display and hard to verify without checking directly with the certifying body. Certification verification confirms it's current, valid, and actually held by that supplier.

This extends beyond the core certifications already covered under Supplier Due Diligence (ISO, OEKO-TEX®, GOTS, GRS, SA8000, WRAP, SMETA) into additional standards relevant to specific buyers and markets.

Why People Diligence

Global auditors know the checklist. Local players know the region. People Diligence combines both — international inspection and testing standards, delivered through on-the-ground assessors who know Pakistan's textile manufacturing hubs firsthand.

Every finding is documented with evidence — not a generic pass/fail stamp — so you can see exactly what was checked and how it was verified.

Compliance & Data Protection

Every assessment is conducted under strict confidentiality and in line with applicable data-protection and regulatory obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Different buyers and retail markets require different standards — some require BSCI, others Higg Index or bluesign® specifically. This service covers verification for whichever certifications your buyers require.
This is flagged clearly in the report — an expired certification is treated as not currently held, regardless of what the supplier claims.
