Pre-shipment Inspection

This inspection is normally carried out at the source for acceptance or rejection of the shipment. This is the most common type of inspection and is designed to protect the buyer or receiver from the shipment of a bad lot. As the shipment is ready for dispatch/ 80% of goods are already packed/or as per client requirements, the buyer / supplier requests CQS Nepal for the inspection of the lot. CQS inspector inspects the goods offered for inspection and collects samples randomly representing the whole lot; and upon testing and verification of the quality of samples based on statistical principle, the lot quality is estimated. Based on the lot quality estimated the whole lot is either accepted or rejected. A bad lot is stopped for the shipment at the source itself. The quantity of goods in the lot is also estimated during pre-shipment inspection.

Post Delivery Inspection or Discharge Supervision

This inspection is carried out at the delivery destination of the shipment. Representative samples are drawn to check quality and quantity of the lot. After checking and verification of samples, the lot quality is estimated. Based on the estimated quality, the shipment is either accepted or rejected. This type of inspection is also very common. This type of inspection will enforce the supplier indirectly to ship the goods of right quality in right quantity to the final destination.

Continuous Process Monitoring

Some customers request CQS Nepal to continuously monitor the goods during its processing or manufacturing itself. Upon such request, CQS Nepal inspectors are permanently stationed at the processing plant to monitor the quality and timely processing of the goods. This type of inspection ensures that bad quality products if made, are segregated from the very beginning and only good quality products form the lot. This type of inspection also helps the supplier by providing them expert’s services to produce goods of right quality and avoiding an unfortunate situation of lot rejection at the end.

In-process Checking

CQS inspectors make random visits to the premises of supplier during the processing of the goods. During these surprise checks, general condition of the cargo produced till then is checked and samples are also drawn for laboratory testing. Upon discretion of the customers, these visits can be made surprise. Surprise in-process checks ensure that the supplier takes enough precaution during the manufacturing or processing of the goods itself, thus ensuring timely delivery of quality goods.
