In an environment where compliance, traceability, and risk management requirements continue to grow, supplier qualification has become a critical factor in securing supply chains and ensuring operational performance.

While many suppliers appear compliant during the selection and onboarding process, challenges often emerge once production begins: documentation inconsistencies, limited traceability, undeclared subcontracting practices, or compliance procedures that struggle to keep pace with increasing production volumes.

Through this Breakfast Talk, CCIFV and its Sourcing Committee will provide practical insights into how companies can assess the true reliability of suppliers, identify hidden risks at an early stage, and strengthen their supplier qualification processes over the long term.

Key discussion topics will include:

• Assessing a supplier’s operational maturity beyond documentation;
• Identifying weaknesses in traceability and data management practices;
• Understanding the risks associated with subcontracting and limited visibility into production capacity;
• Examining why compliance systems often become less effective as production scales;
• Recognizing warning signs during supplier onboarding and factory visits;
• Building practical qualification frameworks to reduce operational risks and improve supplier reliability.

This session will also offer valuable opportunities to exchange ideas with sourcing, procurement, supply chain, and compliance professionals while expanding your network within the French-Vietnamese business community.
