Certificate of conformity
Also called: CoC
Certificate of conformity — A document declaring that a delivered product or lot meets its stated specification and standards, usually issued per consignment or batch.
A CoC links the goods on the delivery note to the specification in the purchase order or tender: product code, batch number, quantity and the standards claimed. It is different from a certificate of analysis (CoA), which reports the actual test results for a lot.
Ask for both in tender files where the specification calls for measured values.
