Ensure Supplier Quality: Inspect and Verify is a foundational course for professionals in supply chain, quality assurance, and receiving roles who are responsible for safeguarding product quality from the very first step. In today’s interconnected supply chains, a single defective component can result in catastrophic failures, as seen in the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall and the grounding of the Boeing 737-9 MAX. This course provides the essential, practical skills to prevent such outcomes.

You will learn to master the Incoming Inspection Checklist, the most critical tool for systematically verifying that supplier materials meet quality specifications. Through hands-on activities, you will practice applying checklists, documenting pass/fail results with precision, and identifying non-conformances. The course will guide you through standard procedures for segregating defective items and escalating issues effectively to management, ensuring that only compliant, high-quality materials are accepted into your company’s inventory. By the end of this course, you will be equipped to act as the first line of defense in your organization's quality management system.
