LIVESTOCK AUDITS

The Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment mandates that exporters adhere to the Exporter Supply Chain Assurance System (ESCAS) by submitting an audit report summary for their supply chain. ESCAS ensures that Australian livestock exporters guarantee the approval and maintenance of animal welfare in importing countries in accordance with the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) recommendations. This compliance is verified through independent audits, and TQCSI Far East has earned acceptance from the Australian Government Department of Agriculture as one of the independent auditors for exporters' supply chains in Malaysia. The livestock audit conducted by TQCSI Far East aims to assess whether the facilities and supply chain elements meet animal welfare standards, and it includes a comprehensive summary of performance related to traceability and control processes in alignment with the ESCAS regulatory framework.
