Pro QC's Solution Matrix
Protect Your Brand, Avoid Costly Defects and Ensure Compliance
Supplier Audits
On-site evaluations provide key information relevant to supplier selection, vendor compliance, or to identify root causes and associated improvement plans. Factory audits are also used periodically to evaluate supplier performance.
QC Inspections
Quality inspections ensure your product meets specifications. Identifying issues early using first article, in-process and/or pre-shipment evaluations provides time for corrective actions prior to leaving the factory. Product inspections save time and money by avoiding costly defects and delays.
Product Testing
Ensure your products are in compliance with applicable standards, or identify and resolve issues. Regulatory and safety testing verifies conformance to design, properties, performance, reliability and lifecycle.

Client Stories
Wahl
In addition to supporting our efforts to pass the audit, we wanted to ensure that Wahl was doing the ‘right things’ for our employees. Jean is very honest, knowledgeable, hardworking and dedicated to the project. He provided educated feedback that helped us balance best practices and business requirements. I am confident that we would not have made the progress without Jean’s support, nor do I think that we would have developed the courage to proceed with the audit.
