Abstract: The present system comprises a number of discrete elements, which when combined provide a solution which has not been attainable in the industry. A database of answer templates provides the answers to all conceivable questions asked on supplier self audit questionnaires. A web portal allows manufacturers access to the above template to allow personalisation of the answers to their own business. A routine to map each questionnaire into this database is provided. In one embodiment, technologists at a central location may perform the mapping of questionnaires. However, customers may directly map their own questionnaires, if desired. A software suite may be provided which manages access, security and general portal administration.
