Specification
Confirm what the customer has approved before production begins.
QUALITY & TRACEABILITY
Quality should be part of the process, not an inspection added at the end.
Repeat work depends on clear specifications, identifiable jobs and finished goods that can be connected back to production.
Job control
Keep the production requirement identifiable through the route.
Process checks
Check production, print and conversion against the requirement.
Finished goods
Identify and check packed output before customer dispatch.
TRACEABILITY
When a customer asks a question, the production record should help answer it.
Traceability is useful because it gives production, quality and customer-service teams a common reference point when reviewing repeat work or investigating a concern.
