Type of Inspection

There are three types of inspection:

  • Normal inspection is used at the start of the inspection activity.
  • Tightened inspection is used when the vendor's recent quality history has deteriorated (acceptance criteria are more stringent than under normal inspection).
  • Reduced inspection is used when the vendor's recent quality history has been exceptionally good (sample sizes are usually smaller than under normal inspection).

Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten.
