[Discussion] vendor is doing more work than we give it credit for
vendor is doing more work than we give it credit for. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this. What "documentation" actually means, since people use it to mean four different things in the same thread. A certificate of analysis is one document about one lot. A batch record is the…

Agreed on buying small first. The cost of a test is small next to the cost of committing to a supplier you have not checked.
That is a report count, not a test count. The table lists both and they are very different numbers.
Mild pushback: a supplier with fewer entries is not worse, it is less sampled. Those are different claims and the table says so.
Fixing my own comment above: I said 14 orders and it is 5. The pattern is the same, the count was wrong.
