Due diligence is the bridge between a promising conversation and a controllable shirt order. The goal is not to collect the most documents; it is to make each document match the same production reality.
Match the factory identity
Check the legal entity, address, bank account, production floor and order-signing party. Ask whether any process is outsourced. The reliable shirt OEM factory audit checklist turns this review into practical questions.
Make the quotation comparable
Ask the factory to separate garment price, fabric, trims, labels, packaging, sample work, freight and other charges. Check MOQ by style and color. The shirt manufacturing quotation and MOQ guide explains the basic structure.
Connect the contract to evidence
The contract should refer to the approved sample, size chart, quality standard, inspection point, payment trigger, delivery term, change approval and IP handling. For deposits and inspections, also use the garment manufacturing contracts guide.
Review capability in context

Frequently Asked Questions
Why verify the payment account separately?
The account name should correspond to the contracted entity or a documented authorized arrangement; an unexplained mismatch is a risk that needs clarification.
What is more important, a low quote or a complete quote?
A comparable, itemized quote is more useful because fabric, trims, packing, inspection and delivery scope can otherwise be hidden.
What should be frozen before production?
Freeze the sample, measurements, fabric, color, trims, labels, packing, quantity, inspection standard and delivery terms.
