The global market is depending more and more on the fast, reliable production, shipment, and delivery of goods. Due to this, the need for quality inspections services imported consumer goods is greater than ever. Of course, many suppliers work very well with their clients for years on end without having any major quality control issues. However, at Quality Corrections and Inspections (QCI), we regularly encounter situations where some type of product examination is necessary to help ensure and/or improve the quality of imported goods.
A 100% inspection in quality control represents a process where every item in a batch of products is inspected for its quality and ability to meet brand requirements. While most 100% inspections are reserved for high-value products, there are plenty of other scenarios — especially when it comes to the relationships that consumer goods retailers have with their suppliers — that can require this type of inspection. For third party inspection services, a number of factors can be required to be checked during 100% inspections — including but not limited to:
When large batches of items need to be 100% inspected, other factors such as knowing which quality issues need to be addressed and formulating a plan for a product’s disposition when it does not meet standards are also considerations.
Ultimately, because 100% inspections require more resources than random sample inspections, the decision to use them is an important one that should result in the outcomes your company and brand are looking for. That’s why working with a reliable independent inspection and rework company — like QCI with over 35 years of inspection experience — is one of the most prudent choices you can make.
