Vendor & Pre-Shipment Inspection
Eyes at your supplier's works so problems are caught at source — anywhere in the world.
Problems found at your receiving bay are expensive. The same problems found at the supplier's works are a schedule conversation. Vendor inspection puts a qualified, independent pair of eyes on the floor where the work is happening.
Expediting and surveillance visits confirm that production is where the supplier says it is, that the right material has been drawn, and that hold points have not been passed without notification. Pre-shipment inspection checks the finished consignment against the purchase order: quantity, marking, documentation, preservation and packing.
Where loading is critical, our inspector supervises it directly and verifies quantities as they go into the container or onto the trailer.
