Audit every vendor to the same standard, every month
Vendor audits fail when every auditor uses a different checklist. ComplySmart standardises vendor compliance audits, verifies licences, wage records and PF/ESIC challans, and turns the result into a vendor score your procurement and HR teams can act on.
What Vendor Audit Management supports
Audit every contractor against a standard checklist and score. Here is everything it covers.
Audit planning
Vendor audit calendar by site, contractor and risk level, with auditors assigned.
Standard vendor checklist
One detailed checklist applied consistently across vendors, states and auditors.
Document verification
Licences, wage registers, attendance and PF/ESIC challans checked against obligations.
Vendor self-submission
Vendors upload documents directly; every submission refreshes their score.
Findings and remediation
Non-compliances assigned to the vendor with deadlines, reminders and re-verification.
Vendor scorecards
Dynamic scores and trends used for renewals, payments and procurement decisions.
How ComplySmart does it

Vendor compliance management that protects the principal employer
A vendor compliance audit is only useful if it changes behaviour. Linking scores to payments and renewals gives vendors a reason to fix gaps quickly, and gives you documented evidence of due diligence.
Vendor Audit Management: questions answered
What is a vendor compliance audit?+
A structured check that a vendor or contractor meets its labour law obligations: licences, wages, PF/ESIC remittances, registers and returns.
How often should vendors be audited?+
Monthly verification of remittances and wages, with a deeper periodic audit, is the standard most principal employers follow.

Yes. A standard vendor checklist is provided, and ComplySmart pulls the vendor's registers, declarations, forms, licences and challans against it.
Can vendor documents be pre-audited before the audit visit?+
Yes. Vendor submissions are pre-audited so the on-site audit focuses on real gaps.
Can we audit many vendors at once?+
Yes. Checklists and document pulls can be run in bulk across vendors and sites.
Can vendors upload documents themselves?+
Yes. Vendors submit documents into ComplySmart and the vendor score updates on each submission. Book a live demo of ComplySmart.
