What is Second-party Audit?
A second-party audit, also known as a supplier audit, is an assessment conducted by one organization on another organization within its supply chain or business network. Unlike third-party audits conducted by independent entities, second-party audits involve a direct relationship between the auditing organization and the one being audited. These audits serve to evaluate the supplier’s adherence to specific criteria, standards, or contractual agreements set by the auditing organization.
Why is Second-party Audit Important?
The purpose is to ensure compliance, assess quality, and manage risks within the supply chain or business partnerships, fostering transparency and accountability in the relationships between organizations.
