Finding hard-to-source parts is only half the battle. Without rigorous inspection and traceability, an “available” part can cost more in failure, rework, and audit headaches than continuing production downtime. Inspection Genie makes that verification fast, consistent, and documented.
Multi-level inspection: from visual to X-ray
Inspection Genie bundles visual inspection, sample electrical testing, and X-ray where needed - matching the evidence required by regulated industries and PPAP processes. This reduces the risk of counterfeit or nonconforming components.
Documentation that satisfies auditors
Quality teams need C of C, trace reports, and images - not anecdotes. Inspection Genie delivers packaged documentation aligned to PPAP-style expectations so QA signs off confidently and quickly.
Shorter verification cycles keep production on-track
Speed and inspection aren’t conflicting goals: parallelize verification workflows so inspection begins immediately after source assignment. The result is faster turn-in to production without surprising QA holds.
Use inspection data to refine sourcing rules
Inspection outputs feed supplier scoring and pre-qualification logic - helping RFQ Genie push higher-confidence suppliers to the top of future searches.
Quality without speed is irrelevant; speed without quality is dangerous. Inspection Genie locks the two together, protecting production and reputations while keeping cycle time low.
