Product Inspection Services
For third-party quality inspection services, Pro QC recommends the International Inspection Standard ANSI Z.1.4-2003 (ANSI Sampling Table) to determine the number of units that will be randomly selected for evaluation.
Samples are checked against a detailed inspection plan for appearance, applicable functionality, packaging integrity, workmanship, and the client’s specific requirements. Discovered defects are classified as major, minor, or critical depending on the inspection plan. We have no concern to follow our customer’s QC standards, procedures, and documentation.
Pro QC’s quality control inspection services apply to all industries and are tailored to the requirements of each project. From 100% to AQL-based inspections, our solutions cover the entire spectrum of quality inspections and include First Article Inspections (FAI), In-Process Inspections (DUPRO), Pre-Shipment Inspections (PSI), and Container Loading Supervision (CLS).
Our product inspection reports and results with digital photos are delivered to our clients within 24 hours of the service through our secure online client center so that product shipments can be quickly authorized.

Advantages of QC Inspections
Avoid Costly Product Defect and Shipment Delays
Quality control (QC) inspections minimize the number of costly defects by detecting non-conformances throughout the production cycle before it is too late.
Identify or Explore Corrective Actions
Product quality inspection services help companies determine the overall quality of their order, and determine the need to issue corrective actions before any products leave the factory.
Protect Brand and Reputation
Sub-standard products result in customer complaints and damage brand reputation. Third-party product quality inspections help ensure consistent customer satisfaction and maintain brand integrity.
