Final Shipment Inspection (FSI)- new customers just $265, most China locations!
Final Shipment Inspections are performed after production is at least 80% completed and either at the production facility or much less often at the freight forwarder's or agent's warehouse.

KRT Suggests: Use just this service if your budget allows for only one inspection and if you are not concerned about possible shipment delay due to product reworking time and confrontation with the supplier about poor final product quality.

In-Process Inspection (IPI)- new customers just $265, most China locations!
In-Process Inspections are performed during the actual production process prior to production completion so that problems can be more easily resolved and possible delays in shipment avoided.

KRT Suggests: Use this service if upon production completion there could be quality problems that would cause you serious shipment delay, product reworking expense, or an unwanted confrontation with the factory regarding acceptability.

First Article Inspection (FAI) - new customers just $265, most China locations!
First Article Inspection is the analysis of the first item manufactured in a production run to verify correct setup, correct process alignment, and to verify that the product is built to print and all the components are in the correct configuration.

KRT Suggests: Use this service if your product is being produced by an automated method such as injection molding or metal stamping where the quality and accuracy of the first unit produced will represent all future units produced.

Container Loading Check (CLC) - new customers just $265, most China locations!
Container Loading Checks are performed during the actual container loading process to assure that both the goods and quantities of goods loaded are indeed the same goods and quantities ordered.

KRT Suggests: Use this service if your main concern is a short-shipment (the loading of quantities less than you have ordered) or loading incorrect items or loading the items incorrectly.
