Expanding beyond domestic borders allows companies to access a wider customer base and drive powerful growth and resilience. However, it could also be a battlefield of complexities too. Businesses have to navigate shifting trade policies, emerging technologies, volatile supply chains, and fierce competition. This is where an aggregator could be a boon.

Our Procurement Process: A Step-by-Step Guide
Inductus Global has a structured procurement process with a strong focus on quality and ethics. We navigate the complex waters of global trade while adhering to budgets, goals, and business timelines. Read on for details.
Step 1: Needs Identification
The process starts with a personalized onboarding call with your project manager. This initial consultation is much beyond a simple process overview – we conduct a strategic discussion and take time to understand your specific expectations, needs, and vision for your product. We take pride in our meticulous approach which means evaluating important factors like quality benchmarks, technical specifications, service efficiency, and customer satisfaction.
Our team further conducts in-depth market research to align our procurement strategy with globally recognized quality standards (ISO 9001), consistency, compliance, and excellence at all stages. The commitment of our sourcing agents extend beyond quality since we integrate ethical sourcing with corporate responsibility for measurable results. Overall, Inductus Global builds a tailored procurement strategy that seamlessly aligns with business goals while maintaining the highest industry standards.
Step 2: Supplier Selection & Evaluation
Inductus Global leverages 11,000+ verified, trusted, and audited manufacturers PAN India. However, this is not the only network we rely on. We are on a continuous process of research and verification of new factories to ensure highest compliance and quality.
We assign 25 manufacturers for every project selected through multiple evaluations and strict quality checks. We narrow it down to 4 to 5 manufacturers who meet the global standards and adhere to fair trade practices. NDA and NNN agreements are also facilitated as and when needed to ensure higher security. Each potential supplier undergoes a rigorous multi-stage audit process by assessing factors like cost efficiency, delivery performance, and financial stability. Priority is given to suppliers with ISO 9001 and SA8000 certifications to maintain excellence standards.
Step 3: Quotation Process
We start by obtaining quotations from a wide range of factories conducting an end-to-end comparative analysis which is based on company credibility, product quality, cost, compliance, and suppliers’ understanding of specific needs. Only the most eligible one reaches the next stage. This is critical since having a precise understanding of global trade is necessary to ensure market entry. Several products would require particular certifications for sales and import and therefore we proactively conduct compliance checks to identify necessary legal requirements.
Before finalizing a selection, we provide complete transparency on prototyping, design, unit costs working closely with you. This helps us ensure product refinement until they meet your requirements accurately. Once this is done, we shortlist the top 2-3 most qualified suppliers and start with the sampling process. On the other hand, we always maintain a backup supplier for flow and reliability even during periods of high surge.

Step 4: Negotiations & Sample Development
Our negotiation process helps secure optimal sourcing terms, contractual precision, and regulatory compliance while preserving the highest standards of ethical integrity and quality. We prioritize anti-corruption policies, fair labor practices, and quality control to ensure every agreement is mutually beneficial to help build long-term partnership on trust. The contracts are structured in way that they include the following:
- Ethical compliance
- Performance benchmark
- Routine compliance
Our team monitors the entire prototype development process which ensures that samples adhere precisely to your preferred specifications while suppliers take accountability for accuracy, quality, and timely execution. This further reinforces our unwavering commitment to excellence.
Step 5: Contract Award
Finalizing a supplier has little to do with cost and quite a lot with total value. Therefore, our contract award process prioritizes suppliers that offer the best combination of cost efficiency, ethical business standards, and product quality practices like :
- ISO 14001 – Environmental Management System (EMS)
- ISO 45001 – Occupational Health & Safety Management System
- SA 8000 – Social Accountability Standard
There is also a provision of regular reporting and audits which ensures suppliers maintain the highest quality as per industry benchmarks throughout the contract.
Step 6: Mass Production Management
Here, we set up a purchase agreement to formalize every detail. This includes packaging, pricing, payment terms, delivery schedules, product specifications, and contract conditions. Such transparency offers mutual understanding and commitment from the supplier which also serves as a protection against fraud. It adds an extra layer of security to avoid the risks of unforeseen circumstances.
Our USP in mass production management lies in daily checks and close monitoring of the process and keeping a close eye on consistency and quality with the help of an on-site inspector. Moreover before shipment, we conduct a final QC to confirm if goods meet the pre decided standards. In-process inspections are further arranged by collaborating with your project manager.
Step 7: Quality Control & Pre-Dispatch Inspection
To ensure product reliability, compliance, and excellence, we implement a quality control and pre-dispatch inspection. The approach begins with periodic on-site checks followed by factory audits to ensure no stones are left unturned to ensure strict adherence to processes and product specifications and standards.
At Inductus Global, we implement a rigorous, multi-tiered quality control process to ensure excellence at every stage of the procurement journey:
- Evaluation Stage – We conduct thorough supplier assessments, verifying certifications, compliance, and production capabilities before onboarding.
- Production Stage – QA continues with in-process inspections and supplier-led self-audits, ensuring adherence to predefined standards during manufacturing.
- Delivery Stage – Before final receipts, we conduct comprehensive checks to verify that the delivered products meet agreed-upon specifications and quality benchmarks.
- Post-Delivery Stage – Our commitment extends beyond delivery, incorporating customer feedback, long-term performance monitoring, and continuous improvement initiatives to maintain the highest quality standards.
Apart from this, we adhere to ISO 2859 (AQL) for acceptance sampling, ISO 22000 & HACCP for food safety management, and ISO/IEC 17025 for testing and calibration. Other compliances include ASTM International Standards and AIAG CQI Standards for automotive industry QC.

Our freight forwarding solutions are flexible and seamless which allows us to choose from the most suitable transportation mode – sea, rail, or air as per deadlines and product size, weight, and destination. Our products leave the warehouse on time and reach their destination without delays utilizing No. 1 delivery services for maximum efficiency.
