Production Monitoring PM Supervise Factory Quality Control
Process auditing for determining root causes for issues
There’s a difference between identifying product defects and other issues and pinpointing their root causes. Product inspectors can often point to the production processes which are introducing particular defects. They may even be able to sometimes suggest potential causes. But they typically cannot analyze a process to determine how to fix problems.
An importer that desires a greater amount of improvement in a factory’s operations can opt instead for a process audit. Process auditing is normally conducted by manufacturing consultants who closely examine the production processes themselves. These consultants generally find the root cause of any problems and help factory staff implement solutions.
Production monitoring is still useful in detecting problems early so the factory can address them. But if factory management are unable to fix specific problems, a process audit can be the best way forward.
Production Monitoring - For challenging or high-risk orders, it is recommended to have an inspector at the factory throughout production. We will monitor your order daily and report back the production status as well as product quality issues. Therefore, you can identify and direct the factory to fix possible production problems before they arise.
A production monitoring system is a process that is designed to record the overall performance of the production line in real-time. The system collects data from the various sections of the production line and is relayed to employees and managers working on the line. The data that is collected by the monitoring system is used in improving the efficiency of the production line.
Production monitoring offers a wide view of manufacturing
One of the main benefits of production monitoring is that it gives you a wide look at all the manufacturing processes at work in the factory. It’s typically a combination of all three types of product inspection:
- Early product inspection at the start of production, giving insight into the status and quality of parts and materials used
- During production, or “DUPRO”, inspection looking at a product as it’s moving through manufacturing stages; an
- Final inspection, checking a product when most units are already finished
Inspection at a particular production stage can be helpful for most importers. But rather than having a limited view of a product in one area, production monitoring reveals the whole spectrum of manufacturing. This can be beneficial in a number of ways, including revealing how factory workers operate and the implications for your product.
- All-inclusive pricing for inspections
- An inspector onsite within 48 hours
- Same-day inspection reports
- Easy online scheduling of services
- The detailed dashboard of quality trends, accessible in real-time
PSI/FRI (Pre-Shipment Inspection)
- The Significance: Pre-Shipment Inspection refers to an inspection carried out by all the goods are produced and packed completely. By conducting a sampling test in accordance with the AQL standard, to have an overall assessment of the quality of the goods.
- Mainly includes: quantity check, workmanship check, product size and weight, product performance parameters, product color, outer carton measurement, various labels will be given about if the goods can be shipped. This inspection can serve as a powerful reference to judge the quality of the whole batch of products.

Helping you understand a supplier, Including supplier's actual capabilities, quality control system, management, and operating procedures.
|
Pre-production inspection
|
Before production, helping you make sure the raw materials and components will meet your specifications and are available in quantities sufficient to meet the production schedule.
|
During production inspection (DPI)
|
Checking the products during the production process and trying our best to avoid some defects appearing, It can also help you check the product schedule and confirm that the products are ready when the time of shipment.
|
Pre-shipment inspection (PSI)
|
It is the most effective inspection that confirms the whole shipment's quality level. It normally requires the production to be 100% complete and at least 80% of goods to be packed into cartons The checked samples are randomly selected according to AQL standard.

It is an important step during the delivery process, It can make sure your products are correctly loading and reduce the possibility of breakage. Guaranteeing the good quality and condition of your products until you receive them.

The result of this synergy is unprecedented real-time visibility into the fine details of your entire manufacturing enterprise and supply chain. The benefits of EnterpriseIQ real-time monitoring are endless, beginning with:
- Improved overall productivity, efficiency quality with timely hands-off data capture and analysis of both machine and process performance data.
- Improved data accuracy and integrity as redundant data entry and batch interfaces are eliminated.
- Improved customer relationships as everyone in the supply chain has access to the same product information.
- Elimination of unnecessary downtime as production and maintenance issues are identified before they become a problem.
- Reduced production monitoring expenses as costly and cumbersome third-party integrations are eliminated.
