It helps you make final decision to work with the factory or not, and can help avoid scammers who pretent to be legitimate identity.

Pre-shipment inspection (PSI), also called final random inspection(FRI), is a part of supply chain management and an important and reliable quality control method for verifying goods' quality before you settle final payment.

To catch production problems early, you can use During Production Inspection service.

7. How many days prior to loading/shipment day is good to carry out pre-shipment inspection?
Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) is always conducted when the goods is 100% finished and at least 80% packed into master cartons at least (if there is more than one item, at least 80% of each item must be packed into master cartons) prior to inspector’s arrival. It is set default as inspection condition.

Some clients require Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) when the consignment is above 80% finished and 80% packed.

Some clients require Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) when the consignment is 100% finished and 100% packed.

It is suggested Pre-shipment inspection should happen at least 2 days before loading date, so clients have time to review the report and the problems found during the inspection can be remedied by factory before shipment.

8. How does sampling work during an inspection?
Eagle Eyes use the well-proven and widely adopted international standard ANSI/ASQC Z1.4-2003 (equivalent to MIL-STD-105e, ISO2859, NF06-022, BS6001, DIN40080, and GB2828) to measure the acceptable quality level of the products inspected. This standard and its equivalence are designed according to the statistics theory and are indexed with AQL table. The sampling plans in these standards indicates the number of units of products from each lot or batch which are to be inspected (sample size) and the criteria for determination of the acceptability of the lot or batch.

9. What are your Inspection Services Coverage?
Coastal provinces and Major manufacturing cities across China.

10. What if the lot quality fails inspection?
If the quality fails inspection, it is required that the supplier should rework the whole lot to fix the defectives instead of reworking the AQL sample sizes inspected only. It is recommended that client requires re-inspection after one failed inspection, so the factory’s correction of non-confirming issues can be justified. Re-inspection always happens a few days after the failed inspection date.

11. What happens if non-confirming goods are found when the shipment arrives?
It is extremely rare that non-conforming goods Or unexpected rates of defectives make it out of the factory after eagle eyes quality inspection. In the vast majority of cases, the root reasons turn out to be damage during shipping or shipments were approved after a failed inspection and the buyer trust the factory (who was likely supposed to rework the goods) enough to ship without having performed a re-inspection or a defect sorting service.

Therefore, we highly recommend you to book re-inspection or defect sorting service after a failed inspection and to work with your shipping partners to ensure the product against damage in transit.
