Incoming inspection
Check received material against the confirmed order
On receipt, we compare the component markings, quantity, packaging and supplied documents with the order. Relevant photographs and observations are recorded, with any discrepancy reviewed before the affected material moves to the next stage of handling or shipment preparation.
Incoming inspection checks the received markings, quantity, packaging and documents against the order. Findings and differences are recorded so the affected material can be reviewed before further handling or shipment.

What is checked and what is recorded
The inspection scope follows the material and order requirements. Records distinguish observed facts from points that still need verification.
| Inspection area | What is reviewed | Relevant record |
|---|---|---|
| Part markings and quantity | Full part number, manufacturer markings, quantity and visible date or lot information | Order comparison, label photographs and any discrepancy |
| Packaging and visible condition | Labels, seals, reels or trays and any visible damage or inconsistency | Packaging photographs and observations relevant to the material |
| Protection and handling | Applicable ESD protection, moisture-sensitive packaging and agreed handling conditions | Relevant packaging information and any action requiring confirmation |
| Documents and questions | Documents supplied with the material and details requiring additional verification | Missing information, follow-up responses and the agreed next step |
Keep the findings linked to the received material
Label photographs, packaging observations and quantity checks are retained with the relevant order or material reference. If a question requires further evidence, the record includes what was found and how it was reviewed.
Documents supplied for the order are checked for their connection to the received lot. Questions requiring specialist testing are handled through a separately agreed scope.
