Desk Assessment
The desk assessment involves submission and verification of documents only. Third-party agencies such as RITES review these documents to ensure compliance with financial and quality standards. If discrepancies are identified, resubmission may be required.

• Production Capacity: List of machinery utilized in the manufacturing process.
• Quality Assurance: Documentation detailing quality assurance measures and part-wise inspection protocols for each product.
• Territory of Operations: Evidence of operational presence across multiple locations, along with standard operating procedures for transportation to ensure defect-free deliveries.
• Supplier Management: Information on approved suppliers, including their names, addresses, and other relevant details.
• Handling of Rejected Materials: Procedures for managing materials rejected during manufacturing.
• Warranty Policies: Warranty documentation for product samples provided to customers.
• Safety Standards: The manufacturer’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) outlining safety protocols.
