Control quality and timing

Production follow-up: know where your order really is

"On schedule" by email often means not started. We check material arrival, production start, first-piece quality and daily output at the factory, and tell you early when the ship date is at risk, while there is still time to act.

Best for
Buyers with tight launch dates or new suppliers
Typical timeline
Visits weekly or at agreed milestones
You receive
Milestone reports with photos and a ship-date forecast

The challenge

Why delays come as a surprise

  • 01

    Optimistic updates

    Sales staff report what you want to hear; the production floor tells a different story.

  • 02

    Late materials

    Raw materials and components arrive late, and the whole schedule moves without notice.

  • 03

    Quality drift

    First pieces are fine; by the middle of the run tooling wears and checks get skipped.

What is included

Scope of work

  • Production schedule

    A milestone plan agreed with the factory at order confirmation.

  • Material check

    Raw materials and components verified on arrival against the specification.

  • First-piece check

    The first output compared with the golden sample before the run continues.

  • Progress visits

    Output counted against plan at each visit, with photos.

  • Early warning

    A clear alert and recovery options as soon as the ship date is at risk.

  • Change control

    Any change the factory proposes to materials or process goes to you first.

Questions

Frequently asked

How often do you visit?

It depends on the order: weekly for most, at key milestones for simple products, more often for critical launches. We agree the plan in the proposal.

What happens if production is late?

We tell you immediately, with the cause and options: overtime, partial shipments, a second line or an air-freight split. You decide.

Is this the same as inspection?

No. Follow-up tracks progress and catches problems early; inspection is the formal check against AQL before shipment. Most clients combine both.
