Inspection Process

Create a 10- to 12-slide visual presentation, with speakers’ notes, that outlines the components of a receiving inspection plan.

Select a commodity to use as your example. Possible commodities include:

• Electrical components used in smartphone assembly
• Bulk food products, such as grains and liquids
• Mechanical components for industrial tool manufacturing
• Wiring components used in aerospace manufacturing
• Textiles used in clothing manufacturing

Develop a receiving inspection plan for suppliers of the selected commodity based on the following criteria:

• Newly sourced supplier
• Existing sourced supplier

Analyze why this criteria is important to the receiving inspection plan strategy.

Assess the critical inspection elements to be considered when developing the plan, including the following:

• Incoming lot inspections
  • Sampling
  • Frequency
  • Lot containment
  • Data management
  • Special handling considerations
  • Supplier notifications
• Disposition of non-conforming material
  • Supplier returns
  • Scrap
  • Sorting

Include a process map of the incoming receiving inspection process.
