pre-shipment Inspection

Also known as Final Random Inspection, it is the last quality control process before goods leave the supplier's factory or warehouse. The results of the inspection will help the customer make important decisions to accept, reject or rework.

Pre-shipment inspection(PSI)is a quality control and inspection service conducted before the shipment of products. Typically provided by third-party inspection agencies, this service aims to ensure that products meet specific quality standards and specifications to satisfy customer requirements and expectations. The process involves a detailed examination of various aspects of the product, including appearance, dimensions, functionality, performance, and more.

Why do I need a Pre-Shipment Inspection?

Ensuring Product Quality

By conducting inspections before products leave the manufacturer's warehouse, the likelihood of quality issues during transportation and delivery is minimized. This helps ensure that customers receive high-quality products.

Reducing Rework and Returns

Identifying and correcting potential quality issues before shipment reduces the chances of post-delivery rework or returns. This contributes to increased efficiency and a reduction in additional costs and time.

Enhancing Reputation

By delivering inspected products, manufacturers can build a good reputation. This is essential for long-term collaboration and customer satisfaction.

Supply Chain Reliability

Pre-shipment inspection contributes to ensuring the reliability of the entire supply chain. It helps manufacturers and suppliers collaborate more effectively to ensure that products are delivered according to agreed-upon quality standards.

Application scenarios

- Production is completed, but I want to confirm if the quality meets requirements before shipment.

- I want to assess the quality of this batch to make an informed decision on accepting the shipment, while avoiding disputes with suppliers or customers over product quality.

- I hope to have data and quality reports as tools for continuous quality improvement.

- Pre-shipment inspection is a critical process as part of our trade terms with the supplier.
