Pre-Shipment Inspection
Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI), also known as Final Random Inspection, is the most common inspection type to confirm the whole shipment’s quality level. It normally requires the production to be completed and at least 80% of goods packed into cartons. A Pre-Shipment Inspection is suggested to be scheduled at least some working days before the planned loading date, so that the buyer can have enough time to check the report and decide whether to release the shipment as planned, or to discuss corrective actions with the manufacturer.
Checking for Pre-Shipment Inspections includes the following criteria:
- Quantity
- Product appearance
- Performance & function tests
- Workmanship
- Assembly
- Accessories
- Material
- Colors & logo
- Size & measurements
- Weight
- Assortment
- Carton condition
- Barcode scan test
- Packing & Marking
- Shipping marks
- Warehouse condition
During Production Inspection
During Production Inspection (DPI), also known as In-Process Inspection, is performed when at least 10% of an order is completed. It can uncover problems at an earlier production stage, allowing more time for rework and correction. It also helps you supervise whether the production process is on schedule. A During Production Inspection is normally scheduled when the production is 10%-60% finished.
