What is a third party inspection? And how to do it?
A third party
inspection is to let an unbiased, independent, and specialized 3rd party inspection company, other than the buyers
or the seller to perform the inspections, tests of
the products. It has great advantage over the cost, skill, experience,
overheads, energies, and conveniences.
There are
various inspection types for various
production stages:
- material
inspection (like fabric inspection in garment industry),
- initial inspection when the products
just coming out, to find and correct problems early,
- during production
inspection
(30%-50% ready and packed)
- inline inspecton (to be defined by
you if needed)
- full check
- final random
inspection,
commonly used, when the products are mostly ready for shipment with full
packaging.
- Container Loading
supervision
The inspection
company will contact the sellers to set up the inspection, confirm the date and
address.
There is a
standard inspection process defined the
sample size, allowed defect rate, and inspection procedures. The
sellers can also name their inspection requirements, test
requirements, seal some random samples to send to test, or for reference.
The info
needed for the inspection would be PO or PI
info, packing list, packing requirement, technical drawing, artworks, special
requirement, and the seller's contact info.
