PRE-SHIPMENT INSPECTION

Our fully qualified pre-shipment inspection services thoroughly review and test your supply chain, ensuring your standards for quality are met.

What does a pre-shipment inspection (PSI) involve?

Unlike other forms of manufacturing inspection, pre-shipment inspections take place at the latter stage of the manufacturing process; usually once the production run is at least 80% complete.

Essentially, it gives you the opportunity to catch any last-minute problems that occur, and to take action to fix the issue before the product is shipped to your customers.

Why is the pre-shipment inspection important?

Your pre-shipment inspection takes place before the product is finished and then packaged. Essentially, it’s the last stage of the process before recalls and corrections start to become very expensive, and it helps you minimize import risks.

What will a pre-shipment inspector check?

Our pre-shipment inspection (PSI) services will cover a range of criteria, including:

• The functionality of your product
• Your quality performance of products
• How durable your product is
• Checking whether your product meets appearance standards
• Ensuring that your product fits the specified dimensions

As well as a number of other criteria.

The key thing to remember here is that our expert inspectors work to customized checklists. That means that we can tailor our checks to suit the unique needs of your business, and check to ensure your products meet any specified industry standards.

What are the main benefits of a pre-shipment inspection?

There are a number of key benefits to having a PSI carried out, including:

• The peace of mind that comes from knowing your order has been completed successfully
• The ability to verify the quality of products at the manufacturing source, preventing the risk of paying for low-quality or even defective goods
• The guarantee that the product you’re sending to customers is being manufactured to the standard and the quality you require
• The knowledge that you’re minimizing the risk of your products being returned

And, of course, a pre-shipment inspection allows you to minimize the risk of unhappy customers, which should improve customer retention and increase your company’s ROI.
