Source and review
What the source establishesThe guide cites current ISO garment-measurement, body-measurement, and textile-conditioning standards plus NIST measurement-process guidance for repeatability and reproducibility; it requires organization-specific codes, added points, targets, and tolerances to remain explicitly controlled.FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route.The linked tool or guide is maintained inside Stitch Authority and was checked against its current public interface.
