Quality Inspection Before Shipment

The three inspection stages that prevent costly surprises at destination.

Pre-production inspection (PPI)

Before materials are cut or molded at scale, confirm that raw materials, colors, molds, and components match the approved sample. PPI catches specification drift early — when corrections are cheapest.

During production inspection (DPI)

For larger orders, inline checks at 20–50% completion verify workmanship consistency and assembly standards. This is especially important for electronics, apparel, and multi-SKU furniture programs.

Pre-shipment inspection (PSI)

The final gate before balance payment: verify quantity, random-sample quality against AQL standards, packaging, barcodes, and labeling. KM Enterprises provides photo-documented PSI reports with a clear release or hold recommendation.
