Pre-Production Inspection

The Pre-Production Inspection (PPI) is the first step to assure the quality of your products. This type of quality control is performed before the production process begins. We will check the quantity and quality of the raw materials and components which are used for your order, and whether they are in conformity with the product specifications.

We suggest a PPI for sensitive and critical lead–time of if this is an order to a new factory. Due to high cost pressure and market changes, many suppliers try to buy cheaper material and replaced them with approved components during the production.

How does JV perform the Pre-Production Inspection?

Once you decided your vendor and finished an audit, the JV team will come before the mass production of your order begins. The aim of the Pre-Production Inspection is to make sure your vendor understands your requirements.

Which steps does JV follow on a PPI:

Step: 1

Our inspector arrives at the factory before the production starts.

Step: 2

Random selection of samples: Raw materials, components and semi-finished products are randomly selected to ensure the best possible representation.

Step: 3

Raw materials & accessories check: The raw materials and components will be checked by our inspector according to the requirement for the product.

Step: 4

Product finish and workmanship check: Our inspector carefully checks the products finish, color and quality of raw materials, components and semi-finished products.

Step: 5

Audit of production line: Our inspector will do a simple audit of the production line, to verify the production ability, production process and quality control ability.

Step: 6

PPI is an early-warning system that safeguards your product against costly import risks. For all inspections, JV uses the standard internationally recognized ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 (ISO 2859-1) statistical sampling procedure. These comprehensive criteria cover: functionality, performance, durability, overall appearance, and dimension.

Step: 7

Inspection report:The detail report issued be our inspector will show all findings and include many pictures for review. With this report you obtain a clear picture of whether everything is in place for tour products to be completed according to your requirements.
