Key Points for Quality Control and Testing
China has low costs, a large workforce, and strong production quality, thus it is considered the largest manufacturing country in the world. Though a large number of products are produced every day, manufacturers ensure that their items undergo inspections to guarantee quality.
Quality control in China is a critical component of any production, and we are especially careful in our operations in China. The threat of somebody visiting a factory already pushes factories to improve the quality level of their workmanship since they are aware that failed quality results in cancelled orders.
We, at ODM strongly emphasize the inspection of every product before shipment to maintain quality products. There are a number of key points during production when you can carry out Quality Control and Testing.
Keeping it simple…
Clients speak with us and discuss their order specifics and where it is being shipped to, the end customer and the quality levels required. Some clients and some countries are extremely strict on quality. Some sacrifice a little quality to get the cheapest price. Our job is to go to the factory and report to clients by way of a highly visual reporting document. The pictures tell exactly what we see in China, the state of the factory and most importantly the state of the product being inspected. Then the client makes up his mind on whether to pay the factory and ship or rework the order. ODM assist as required…

The IPC, carried on at the start of production, is often overlooked in favour of a single FRI inspection once goods are complete. Best to catch problems early on for everyones sake.... Factory to save costs redoing orders / Client saves time and can make changes early on which might not be possible later...
