    Your company has developed a good product. Congratulations! At your offshore factory, you have standards in place to ensure that quality manufacturing processes are in place. Great! Get ready for loads of revenue and customer satisfaction!

    Not so fast. There’s that major step of conducting inspections. Inspections are important pre-emptive measures that are crucial to shipping quality products and ensure a company’s survival.

    Inspections aren’t just about ensuring quality, they can be used to verify that good systems and processes are in place. Ultimately, inspections have the ability to drive continued quality process improvements benefiting both the buyer and the manufacturer.

    Here are 3 key reasons why your company needs inspections.

    • Quality of your products

    Your raw materials, the building blocks of your production, need to meet specific criteria before you begin assembly which can be accomplished through a Raw Materials Inspection. Coupled with inspections made during production (DUPRO) these two steps ensure issues do not become catastrophic events by CATCHING THEM EARLY. Prior to shipment, a Pre-Shipment inspection ensures that products meet your requirements before they ship.

    • Efficiency

    Inspections help ensure that you are manufacturing at optimal performance.  . Is the factory meeting your volume requirements? Are operations running at a pace that meets your proposed deadlines? Inspections will ensure your business won’t be caught off guard by subpar manufacturing performance.

    • Improve performance

    Minimizing the risk of poor quality resulting in returned products, chargebacks and lost customers can be accomplished through the use of inspections during the manufacturing cycle. Resulting in strengthened brand reputation.

    Your business faces a lot of competition. There are plenty of other companies out there that are vying for market share. Quality inspections help set you apart as a leader in avoiding mistakes and brand perception and deliver an optimal product to your customers
