During Production Inspection

Also called inline inspection, is performed the production is 15-50% completed. It allows buyers to verify the production progress, and identify any defects and causes, as they’re occurring, to prevent epidemic problem in the final bulk products.

What is an During Production Chck (DPC)?

During Production Check (DUPRO), sometimes referred to as Inline Inspection,  is performed when 10-50% of the production is completed. The inspection randomly selects units from all completed batches to ensure that your factory is adhering to your original specifications and keeping production on schedule.

By using the internationally recognized ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 (ISO 2859-1) statistical sampling procedure, the inspection covers functionality, performance, durability, overall appearance, and dimension. Inspection certificates may be issued upon request in the letter of credit. This rigorous quality control process ensures that your production stays on track and meets your expectations.

What Checks Will be Conducted for a DUPRO?

For a DUPRO, Veriquality inspector(s) will randomly select samples according to the ANSI/ASQ Standard Z.1.4-2008 sampling standard.

The subsequent checks are customized to align with the client’s specifications and the nature of the product being inspected. Veriquality offers a wide array of pre-made inspection checklists tailored for specific products, which clients can readily utilize. In cases where clients require specific additional checks, they have the option to supplement the existing checklists or create a unique one of their own.

A typical DUPRO or Inline Inspection includes the following checks, just as Pre-Shipment Inspection

  • Quantity verification (semi-finished, finished and packed).
  • Workmanship and Finishing (visual check to identify defects for further actions, e.g. rework, replacement, rejection).
  • Product Conformity against tech packs, PP comments, approved sample (construction,  dimensions, colors).
  • Functionalities as intended and as per design specifications
  • Packing method and quality, assortment, marking, and labeling.
  • All applicable Field Tests and Measurements (size measurement, assembly test, loading test, safety test, etc.). *
    Customers’ special attention points

* Different tests and measurements may apply to different kinds of products.

Besides those, the inspectors will also check production organization,  estimated production capacity, and predicted order completion date.
