Challenges
With decreasing product life cycles and time-to-market, the challenge to deliver quality products on-time increases. If a product does not meet the appropriate quality specifications for the marketplace – either after or late in the production stage – the result can be loss of product and revenues, delayed shipment or wasted materials, and the potential risk of increased returns.
Our solution
An inspection is the verification of product quality and quantity to pre-identified specifications before, during or after the production process. Inspections throughout the various stages of production can help both buyers and manufacturers monitor that quality requirements for the product are being met and support on-time delivery of quality products.

Quality Improvement / CX Alignment
By inspecting products prior to shipment, the risk of poor quality products being released to market is reduced. It also allows you to have a perspective of your customer's buying "experience" pre-shipment.
Process Improvement
Inspections are a source of data and manufacturing intelligence on how production processes are performing providing insights into how a better design might lead to higher quality and less waste.
