What is the difference between a 3.1 and a 3.2 Material Certificate?

A 3.1 Material Certificate is endorsed only by the manufactures own representative who has to be

purchasers authorised inspection representative, who can confirm that the testing and inspection
process demanded by the specification have been adhered to correctly.
