What aspects are inspected during production check?

What aspects are inspected during production check? Naturally, the inspector verifies that production is taking place in the production lines. He/She can also ask for the updated production schedule.

During production check can be failed for four reasons:

  1. Non-conformity to specs:

All the relevant aspects of the product (quantity, components, assembly, aesthetics, function, size, labeling…) are controlled, based on the buyer’s requirements.

  1. Visual defectsbeyond AQL limits:

Based on the sampling plan, the inspector selects and checks some products, and then he compares the number of defects to the AQL limits.

  1. Failed on-site test(s):

Some simple tests can be done by the inspector in the factory (instead of sending samples to a laboratory). For example: a full function check, to make sure that a DVD player really “works”.

  1. Obviously the order could not finish in planned lead time:

The inspector can calculate how many products can be finished in one shift. And how long it takes to complete the whole order. If the calculated finish time is more than one week than contract time, the inspector need mention it in during production check report, so that the buyer know there might be a delay of the shipment.
