Accurate production status is critical to plan an optimal shipping schedule for your orders but let’s face it, trying to determine it through a long email thread with the supplier is no fun. And the dread of receiving a consignment that doesn’t meet product specifications! Experts say that product recalls cost businesses over $25billion annually, not taking the second order effects such as lost sales or brand damage into account. Silq solves these problems by inspecting your goods at the factory at various stages of production (pre-production, in-line, final) and recording the findings along the way in the Silq app.
All the inspection information collected on the factory floor will now be available to view in one unified view for each product. This information can then help our users manage the shipment booking for ready to ship goods or take corrective action on rejected inspections early on and avoid costly product recalls.
The inspections dashboard will allow you to both glance through your inspections data at a zoomed out level and dive deeper into the specifics of a given product or inspection. Here are some of the specific benefits that users can gain from this dashboard:
- Easily identify inspection status: You can easily see the status of all product inspections across all projects in one place. Each inspection type for a given product will be accompanied by the planned or completed-on date. This makes it easy to identify any products that are on-hold or that need to be re-inspected.
- Quickly access inspection reports: For each completed inspection, you can easily access the inspection report and images right from the dashboard.
- One-click access to additional information: Want to see inspection details, timeline, comments or product details? You can access it all from a single click on any inspection/Product.
- Filter and search away: You can easily search for a specific product or narrow down the data you want to see by filtering on any facet of the inspection.
At Silq, we believe that Inspections data is a fundamental piece in the puzzle of optimized supply chains.
