Product Quality Control and Quality Assurance Inspection: Enduring your Quaity Sourcing in China
Product quality control inspection is a process of ensuring that products or services meet specified requirements and standards before they are delivered to customers or released into the market.
Quality Inspection involves evaluating, verifying and testing items for defects, deviations, or non-conformities that may affect their performance, safety, reliability, and usability. They help to ensure quality control in the manufacturing process, and can protect against product recalls, customer complaints, and reputational damage.
GIS quality control inspections verify product quality and quantity to meet customer requirement and comply with regulations and standards.
3 Types of GIS Product Quality Inspection Services
GIS quality inspection services cover comprehensive inspections throughout the entire manufacturing process from Pre-production inspection, during production inspection, and pre-shipment inspection.
1. Pre-Production Inspection
Pre-production inspection can highlight quality risks before that of manufacturing mass production.
2. During Production Inspection
During-production inspection helps correct quality issues and avoid affecting the shipping schedule.
3. Pre-Shipment Inspection
Pre-shipment inspection ensures that products meet requirements and quality standards before shipped.
How GIS Conduct a Product Inspection?
GIS quality inspectors usually check products at certain production stages against a comprehensive checklist which is based on the specifications of the product and the requirements of the client. They inspect the products to check whether they are fit for production or semi-finished goods, as well as finished goods ready for shipment to customers.
For each inspection, the checklist is tailored according to the product regulation and standards and the requirements of the client. However, checks typically assess the following:
- Specifications
- Function
- Appearance
- Performance
- Workmanship
- Packaging
- Quantity
Checklists can also be made according to the type of the inspection. For example, pre-production inspection checklists will include checks of raw materials and components.
In most cases, it is not feasible to inspect every single unit of a product or evaluate every aspect of a service. Instead, a representative sample is selected for inspection. In performing products sampling inspection, GIS exclusively apply the ISO 2859 sampling standard which specifies a sampling scheme: Acceptable Quality Level (AQL), to find whether the lot order has met the client's specifications.
The results of the inspection are then compiled into an inspection report. Once the pre-shipment inspection is completed, a report is compiled with a conformed/not conformed result, an overview of key findings, and a detailed account of the inspection results.
All the original photos, videos, original testing data are contained, so you can see exactly what was discovered. A full and detailed inspection report, together with a photographic record within 24 hours of the inspection allows you to see the work undertaken.
