SIF is used as a bible by our client cell; it contains all information required by them to follow-up on order and conduct inspections. Most of the production orders are subjected to three inspections Inline/Midline and Final. SIF process is connected to the inspection process. PO copy, Quote Sheet and ASRF are the first documents that go into the file. ASRF is prepared when an item is approved and production go-ahead is given. It is the most important document and looks at the product from customer’s point of view identifying all grey areas, at this time sample is signed and given to factory along with signed ASRF. During Inline inspection PSRF is prepared QC inspects the product and looks at all points mentioned in ASRF any variations detected are either rectified or reported to client.
Midline is conducted when 15-20% merchandise is in-house, at this time LAF and PAF are prepared to close labeling and packaging. LAF has all labeling instructions and prototypes attached it is sent to buyer for approval. PAF has packaging specification and dummy packaging picture it is sent to client for approval as well. Our effort is to have these closed at least 30 days before the final inspection.
Final inspection is conducted once goods are ready to ship, however it is the easiest part of the job once above processes are performed diligently.
