A quality control approach can be highly effective at preventing defective products from reaching the customer. It pushes the factories to improve the quality level of their workmanship because of the pressure of inspections and non-acceptance. It forces your suppliers to meet your order terms and product requirements, or to compensate you for any discrepancy .You don't discover quality problems after the goods are delivered. You have the time to adapt your planning and take decisions. The factory can rework the goods itself, and will be more careful in the future. Over the long term, regular inspections and customer feedback contribute to improving your suppliers' reliability.
