Sample Review
What is sample review service?
Normally, before the bulk production of the order, the importer needs to review the samples provided by the factory, which means that the samples are sent to the importer for a long distance between countries across thousands of kilometers. After confirmation, it is sent back to the factory for bulk production. This is a long waiting period, but a necessary part of international trade. CQI’s sample audit service puts an end to this waiting period. The importer chooses to send a sample to CQI, and the QA and QC departments work together to verify that the sample meets the importer’s requirements, from the production process to the potential quality risks.
How do importers benefit from sample review service?
- Avoid wasting time on international shipments and customs clearance. For example, the importer can decide whether to send the samples abroad based on the results of the sample audit, thus reducing the need for multiple international shipments.
- All categories of products are sent to CQI for audit and storage, which can shorten the delivery time and reduce international transportation costs.
- Sample audit and inspection to the same third party, which means outsourcing the quality control of the product, reducing communication costs.
- Get sample audit results quickly.
- Customized reporting formats.
- Get constructive suggestions. Because after the sample audit, the importer can ask the factory to improve the production process based on the results of the audit to reduce the quality risk at a later stage.
