for production only if the minimum score of 90% or above is

Asia have some percentage of their operations outsourced. We value
complete knowledge of our supplier base and realize the importance
of the entire manufacturing process. That is why we survey any
subcontract operations during the audit as well. Because their
capabilities will be affecting our end productand yours.
