The Pre-Production Inspection (PPI) is completed after you identify and evaluate your vendor / factory and is done right before the beginning of the actual mass production. It can be completed at the factory or at the vendor office. The goal of performing a PP Inspection is to make sure your vendor has understood your specific requirements and the specifications of your order and is actually prepared for its production.
What do we check during a Pre Production Inspection?
Raw materials and key components of your order, relationship between the factory and the vendor, understanding of your demands by the factory, samples, costs, production schedule and processes, in-house quality control checks and key persons from the vendor and factory (production manager, people who speak English etc).
The added value of the Pre Production Inspection?
The PP Inspection will help you to setup the preliminary production testing to match the required sample. By performing this inspection, you will get a clear vision of the production schedule and get ahead of any possible incoming problems, which could affect the quality of your goods. Most of the time, the main reason for production issues and poor quality is not the know-how of the factory but rather the misunderstandings between you and the manufacturer which often come from culture and language differences. The PP Inspection will allow you to get past this communication gap and make sure both parties understand each other.
