Acceptance Sampling

Acceptance sampling is done on sample’s post production to check for quality parameters as decided by the organization covering both attributes as well as variables. If the sample does not meet the required parameters of quality than that given lot is rejected, and further analysis is done to identify the source and rectify the defects. Acceptance sampling is done on the basis of inspection, which includes physical verification of color, size, shape, etc.

The major objectives of inspection are:

• To detect and prevent defects in products and process.
• To identify defected parts or product and prevent it from further consumption or usage.
• To highlight the product or process defect to appropriate authorities for necessary and corrective actions.
• Scope of inspection covers input materials, finished material, plant, machinery etc.

To sustain quality of product and services it is important to have in place robust quality control techniques.
