Know before usingThe company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms.The workflow is not a contract or quality certification; local legal duties and technical review may still apply.The brief is not an audit, legal opinion, customs determination, certificate validation, credit review, or performance guarantee; risk-appropriate verification remains necessary.
