During Production Inspection

Pre-shipment Inspections, Factory Audit

Inline inspection to catch defects while they can still be fixed. During production inspection (DUPRO), also called inline or in-line inspection, checks your order while the factory is still producing, usually when 20% to 60% of goods are finished. Problems found now can be fixed before the whole order is made.

Why it matters

Defects found after packing mean sorting and rework, and often a missed ship date. Finding them mid-run keeps both cost and delay down.

What we check during during production inspection

  • Cutting, sewing, assembly and finishing line checks
  • Materials and trims against approved samples
  • Early defect trends and their root cause
  • Production progress against the agreed schedule
  • Corrective actions from earlier inspections
  • Line quality controls and in-line inspectors

How it works

  1. We agree the checkpoint with the factory and you
  2. Inspector reviews running lines and finished goods
  3. Defects are recorded with photos and rates
  4. You receive findings and recommended corrective actions

When to book

Book for first orders, new factories, complex products or tight delivery dates. It works well before a final random inspection.

What you receive

A short report with photos, defect rates, a production progress estimate and recommended corrective actions.
