sources of trouble.

Visit the Program Website »

The more locations your company has, the longer and more complex the list of suppliers. Do you know whether they are all in compliance with governmental, health, and other regulations? Are you sure they have adequate insurance or recall procedures? How can you be sure they aren't exposing you to unnecessary liability risk? The answer is VeriServe by Source1.   It's a web-based compliance assessment that helps make sure every supplier delivers not only great product, but real peace of mind too.

The Source1 VeriServe Supplier Verification service will ask your suppliers to provide information about their operations in order to continue their role as a supplier to you. Questions cover a wide range of issues affecting your own company's security and safety, including:

Supplier Profile

  • Goods and services provided
  • Invoicing and payment terms
  • Company terms and conditions
  • Minority business status
  • Product recall procedures

Federal & State Regulations

  • USDA and FDA registration
  • Compliance with Bioterrorism Act
  • HACCP documentation
  • ISO certification
  • Local health requirements

Company Requirements

  • Third party certification for ready-to-eat products
  • Comprehensive General Liability Insurance
  • Workers Compensation
  • Vendor Service Agreement

The best part is VeriServe costs you nothing; it's paid for by the supplier. Peace of mind has a cost, except with Source1!    Visit Out VeriServe website here »

Here's how it works

  • Every supplier is sent a web-based assessment with detailed questions covering every aspect of requirements to sell to your locations.
  • Motivated to complete the assessment in order to do business with you, the supplier is more than willing to comply with your request.
  • Payment for the service is easy, secured and electronic .   You pay no charge for the peace of mind.
  • Working with Source1 a portion of the supplier paid service fee can be returned to you.
  • You receive important supplier information, gain greater control of your supply chain and reduce your exposure to risk.
