| Know before using | The record does not supply universal POM values, validate fit across a population, prove process capability, choose a statistical study or sampling plan, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified technical, fit, quality, statistical, safety, compliance, and legal review. | The public map is opt-in and certification applies to an individual production unit; it does not establish product quality, capacity, availability, upstream coverage, or whole-chain performance. |

| What the source establishes | The guide cites current ISO, AATCC, and NIST sources for body and garment measurement boundaries, textile conditioning, dimensional-change testing, repeatability and reproducibility, and AQL-indexed sampling, while requiring the live product owner to set rather than inherit numerical tolerances. | WRAP states that the map contains current certified production units worldwide and supports manufacturer discovery across apparel, footwear, sewn and leather goods, and textiles. |
