Importance of QA and QC in Garment Manufacturing

In the fast-paced world of garment manufacturing, quality is crucial. At SiATEX Global, we recognize that maintaining consistent quality is essential not only for customer satisfaction but also for sustaining our competitive edge in the industry. By implementing robust QA and QC processes, we deliver garments that align with customer designs, tech packs, and specific requirements.

QA and QC Teams: Skilled and Committed

Our QA and QC teams are composed of skilled and experienced professionals with a deep understanding of garment manufacturing. They are deployed in all production units and work round the clock to monitor and control quality. Their presence at every stage, from pre-cutting to final inspection, ensures that quality standards are strictly adhered to.

• Comprehensive Training: Each QA and QC team member undergoes rigorous training, equipping them with the knowledge and skills needed to identify and address quality issues.
• Focus on Precision: By conducting precise, regular inspections, our teams can detect and resolve issues early, ensuring high-quality output for every production run.

QA & QC Process: Step-by-Step Inspections

At SiATEX Global, we believe in a detailed, step-by-step approach to quality control. Each production stage is monitored to uphold quality at every checkpoint.

1. Pre-Cutting Approval

The QA and QC teams are involved in the production process immediately after pre-cutting approval is granted. This ensures that any potential issues with fabric, color, or pattern alignment are identified and corrected before production begins. Our focus at this stage includes:

• Material Inspection: Ensuring that fabrics, trims, and other materials align with customer specifications.
• Color and Pattern Matching: Checking that color consistency and pattern alignment meet the required standards.
• Sample Verification: Confirming that the pre-production samples match the approved tech pack.

2. Size and Set Inspections

After the pre-cutting stage, our QC teams conduct size and set inspections. These inspections verify that each garment meets the specified dimensions and design configurations. Key aspects of this inspection include:

• Size Verification: Ensuring that garments conform to the client’s size chart.
• Set Consistency: Checking that all elements of the set (e.g., top and bottom for a tracksuit) match in color, size, and quality.

3. Inline and Midline Inspections

Inline and midline inspections occur during the production process, allowing our QA and QC teams to spot potential issues early. These inspections include:

• Inline Inspection: Conducted as each garment is assembled, focusing on stitching, construction quality, and consistency.
• Midline Inspection: A more detailed check once garments are halfway through production, allowing for any necessary adjustments before final stages.

These inspections are critical for catching issues early, minimizing wastage, and maintaining consistent quality.

4. Pre-Final Inspection

The pre-final inspection is conducted after production but before the final quality checks. During this phase, our QC team thoroughly examines each garment to ensure it meets customer expectations.

• Visual Inspection: Looking for any visual defects, such as stains, misalignments, or loose threads.
• Functional Testing: Checking for functionality, such as zipper performance, button alignment, and strength of stitching.
• Final Dimensions Check: Ensuring that all garments match the specified dimensions and fit requirements.

Only garments that pass the pre-final inspection proceed to the final inspection stage.

5. Final Inspection and Client Approval

The final inspection is the last quality checkpoint before garments are cleared for shipment. This stage involves a comprehensive review of each garment’s quality, functionality, and adherence to customer specifications.

• Quality Report: All inspection findings are compiled into a detailed report reviewed and signed by both the Quality and Merchant teams.
• Client Approval: Once our internal QA and QC teams are satisfied, the client reviews the inspection results for final approval.
• Shipment-Ready Clearance: Once all quality approvals are received, the garments are cleared for shipment, ensuring they arrive in perfect condition.

Inspection Reporting and Documentation

Maintaining thorough documentation is a critical part of our QA and QC process at SiATEX Global. Each inspection stage is meticulously recorded and documented, providing a comprehensive record of the production process. Key elements of our documentation process include:

• Detailed Inspection Reports: Each inspection generates a report that highlights any issues identified and corrective actions taken.
• Quality and Merchant Team Review: Reports are reviewed by both the QA team and the Merchant team, ensuring alignment between production and client expectations.
• Traceability and Accountability: Our documentation process creates a transparent record, making it easy to trace any potential issues back to specific production stages.
