Things to Remember When Dealing With Quality Inspection

When it comes to any kind of product or service, quality inspection is one of the most important factors that should be always considered. Of course, with the level of competition growing in most markets on a daily basis, quality has become a critical success factor for many organizations. If you want to meet your customers’ expectations and stay ahead in the market, you will need to find a quality control company in the Philippines. They will not only ensure that your operations are maintained at the highest possible level of quality, but will also reduce waste insofar as possible. 

It is clear that when you manufacture products in Asia, it is essential that you keep quality control factors in mind. Of course, no firm would wish to ship inferior quality products that would risk reputational damage with customers. Markets simply will not accept defective, unsafe and poor quality products or services, regardless as to the price point and discounting.  For this reason, it is important to identify the right company in order to manage quality control at the highest level.  There are a number of key things to factorin dealing with quality control. These are follows:

Quality vs. Compliance 

It is important to distinguish between Quality and Compliance as both are key components of manufacturing processes. Quality is defined as services and products that are intended to deliver specific performance levels whilst compliance is all about meeting regulatory requirements. The organizational goals of most businesses center upon manufacturing competitive products that drive profitability, thus, ensuring that the business thrives in an environment of rising product development costs and globalization. In order to achieve these goals, factories need to ensure the creation of high quality, compliant products. 

Need for Manufacturing Traceability

The need for manufacturing traceability is increasing globally with commercial pressures growing to meet regulatory requirements. By mitigating the risk of product recalls, performing end-to-end quality control of processes and reducing manufacturing costs, organizations can easily handle and minimize risks across the entire supply chain. The key focus here is the ability to help manufacturers to easily identify the problem when it occurs, together with the associated details. 

Determining the Inspection Result

When quality inspection companies inspect products, there are a number of potential outcomes. These include Pass, Fail, Hold or Not Ready. Pass as we all know that the product/service is fit for purpose. 

Fail is clearly the opposite of Pass. When the result is ‘Fail’, then the product has significant defects and cannot be shipped. 

When the inspection indicates Hold, this means that there is some form of issue such as sub-standard product quality, UPC or incorrect Universal Product Code, the dimensions of master carton are different to that on the PO or Product Order and the tag price is at variance with the Product Order. As per the pre-shipment inspection, when the product is not ready, it means that it has not been manufactured as per the 80/20 rule and, as a consequence, the inspection cannot take place. 

It is essential that every customer receives only those products that meet their specifications. Guangdong Inspection is ready and able to help, as one of the best quality control companies in the Philippines and China.
