Overview - Quality Control
In the supply chain industry today, products are being sourced from external vendors. These vendors vary from the highly sophisticated to the highly skilled, but with low access to technology. A few manufacturers have chosen to send their representatives to each facility to oversee the quality and accuracy of the operation. Others have chosen to instill a high degree of checks when the product is received into their own facilities. Retailers also perform inspection to ensure accuracy and quality of the product they receive from the manufacturers.
Quality Control (QC) helps address the quality control procedures that may be performed at a warehouse receiving products from vendors.
