Objective: Taming
the Giant Panda
Problem Analysis
• Low volume high mix has been for many years been the reason why many Israeli manufacturers dread the Chinese
market.
• Due to the increase competition and cost reduction has forced us to produce in the far east. This drive has required
a need of for a different kind inspection in China

Methodology
Major emphasis on quality source inspection in china For the following reasons:1. Quality assurance production representation which
gives immediate response to manufacturing problems: 1. minimizing influence on scheduling.2. Gives option to stop production in china on-line
and rework or new production. 2. Education – To educated the Chinese companies
that it does not pay to give us poor quality.3. Ensure drop shipment quality.4. Minimize quality cost.

Chinese Quality
Inspection production Overview
Production Readiness \Audit (PRA)
Production Final Inspection
Company Manufacturing/ Audit( ISO compliance)
Production In-Line Inspection
• The first stage in approving a manufacturer is to audit the company . This is a process where you evaluate the manufacturer as to his capabilities to produce your product and complying with ISO 9000. In many companies this is done by management.

PRA is an inspection audit who’s goals are as follow:
1.To verify that since the Company audit nothing has changed. Subcontractors were not changed and if changed to verify the compliance of the subcontractors to the requirements
2.To verify that raw materials comply with all product requirements.
3.The production file is updated and all corrective action if any were implemented from last production and implemented in the production file/line.
4.Test stations are calibrated and manpower is certified.
Note :The Chinese market is always looking to reduce cost and the best way is with raw materials which influence the reliability (long term) and not the quality (short term). In addition since time period between production is notcontinuous . It should be assumed that it’s a new production. Manpower in china changes frequently especially after their yearly vacation and this causes a direct effect on the quality of the production and quality and reliability of the product .

Production In-Line Inspection(PIL)
The Production In Line Inspection goal is :
1. to spot check of functionality (short circuit, open circuit etc ) per product specifications.
2. Inspect quality of workers and work flow process on the production line.
3. Initial data yield analysis
Production Final Inspection
• PFI- Production final inspection is the last stage where poor quality can be blocked.
• The goal of this stage:– Is to verify the compatibility of the purchase order to the production
batch (quantity, catalogue, address etc) and to the packaging specifications.
– Sampling of the production batch .
