Benefits for manufacturers

With the CIG Scheme, manufacturers enjoy the advantage of a single inspection visit conducted by a qualified CIG Inspector—rather than multiple visits from inspectors representing different organisations

What is the CIG scheme

Fewer on-site inspections

thanks to optimized scheduling and shared inspection
data.

Simplified internal processes

as one harmonized inspection scheme replaces overlapping procedures.

Local expertise

with inspectors who speak the local language and understand regional conditions.

Reduced travel and accommodation expenses

for inspectors.

THE DIFFERENCE

Factory inspection: without vs. with CIG scheme
