QC System

A Multi-Stage Quality Control System

Stage 01

Supplier Quality

  • Factory verification
  • Quality system
  • Capability assessment
Stage 02

Pre-Production

  • Approved sample
  • Specifications
  • Materials
  • QC checklist
Stage 03

During Production

  • Production monitoring
  • Process control
  • Defect monitoring
  • Functional checks
Stage 04

Pre-Shipment

  • AQL sampling
  • Appearance
  • Dimensions

Defect Management

Defect Classification & Corrective Action

Identifying a defect is only the beginning. The next step is understanding its severity and deciding what action is required.

Classification

Critical

Potential safety, regulatory or major functional concern.

Applied only where applicable to the product and agreed inspection criteria.

Classification

Major

A defect that may affect function, performance, usability or product acceptance.

Evaluated against the agreed quality criteria for the product.

Classification

Minor

A defect that does not materially affect function or usability but does not meet the agreed quality criteria.

Recorded and reported for evaluation against acceptance criteria.

Re-Inspection

Defect classification and acceptance criteria should be agreed according to product requirements and applicable inspection standards.

Sampling Approach

AQL Inspection

A sampling-based approach for evaluating production quality against agreed acceptance criteria.

AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) is a sampling-based inspection approach used to evaluate whether a production lot meets agreed quality requirements.

Acceptance / Rejection

AQL is not a substitute for clearly defined product requirements.

Sampling plans, inspection levels and acceptance criteria should be agreed according to the product, order requirements and applicable standards.

The Right Approach

Quality Control Is More Than Final Inspection

Final Inspection Only
