Audit Firm Selection — Type and Criteria

Which type of audit firm should EcoOptimize engage — local Bangladesh firms, multinational firms (Germany / USA), or a mix?

Local firms in Bangladesh provide deep textile-sector access, faster onboarding, and lower coordination costs. Multinational firms provide international credibility, higher-value client portfolios, and access to European buyer ESG requirements. Audit firms are both platform users and potential channel partners.

Options
Bangladesh-local only (2–3 local firms) Multinational only (Germany / USA) Mixed — 1 local BD + 1 multinational DE Phased — local first, multinational at Month 3+
