financial status, infrastructure, manpower and efficiency
of management.
We continuously update our information on new manufacturers
and new products. Information pertaining to new varieties
of value additions, fabric, accessories, and new technology
area and quota availability are also updated.
Selection
of Vendors
We assess the factories in terms of product range, quality
of the product made, production capacity, facilities, financial
capability, technology orientation, man power, working conditions,
managerial efficiency and their overall quality policy.
Once our initial assessment is over we exchange information
with our principals and make a combined decision in approving
an identified vendor.
Sampling
Samples
are developed to suit the season's colors, fabric and style
based of our buyer's requirements. Any numbers of sales
man samples are made as per the buyer's requirements and
courier them directly to the buyers. By offering this crucial
service, we assist our buyers marketing efforts in their
own country by giving them an edge over others.
Order
execution and Quality Control: (Quality Management)
Orders
are closely monitored from sampling to shipment. Status
on sampling, production and shipment are transmitted to
buyers regularly. We maintain a pro-active approach towards
identification of problem areas and corrective measures
are taken immediately to ensure timely deliveries. Our quality
monitoring system pertaining to production has four stages
as explained below:
-
Pre
Production Check (PPC)
Risks are reduced by checking material components, accessories
/ user manuals etc. at this stage itself.
-
Initial
Production Check (IPC)
First finished products are checked against buyer's specification
and prototype sample. Deviations are identified and brought
out for correction.
-
During
Production Check (DUPRO)
Inspection during production is carried out to check and
verify that the initial discrepancies have been rectified
and to ensure the average quality standard of production
runs.
-
Final
Random Inspection (FIR)
Final random inspection is carried out when the total
consignment is packed and ready for shipment. FRI is performed
according to the International Inspection Standards.
The detailed physical inspection of the samples selected
at random is based on specifications of the buyers and
it cover the criteria such as design / style, shrinkage,
accessories, appearance, markings, color, labeling, material,
assortments, workmanship, measurements, packing etc.
Status
Reporting
Status
report based on the multi-state inspections are transmitted
to the buyers by faxes or e-mail. Production progress
is analyzed in relation to the delivery terms and suitable
course of action s taken to ensure goods are delivered
in time. The consignment is allowed for shipment if only
it is upto the buyers required standard.
Container
Stuffing and Loading Supervision
An
identification of the goods during the loading is made
to ensure that only the inspected goods are being stuffed
without getting mixed up with the un-inspected goods.
Documentation

Shipping
documents are checked as per the buyer's instruction and
the copy documents are sent to the buyers well in advance
of the shipment to avoid any discrepancy.
