- Actions to rectify defects are not taken immediately. Defects of inline and end of line inspections are not recorded. Insufficient number of inline QCs.
- No records of pre-production meetings with any subcontractors (e.g. washing, embroidery, printing).
- No copy of buyer’s safety requirement available. Metal detector is unable to detect test card. No pull test equipment available. Button pull testing procedure does not meet with the George standard. Broken needle procedure is in place but not effective as broken parts were found e.g. in maintenance room.
- George technical manual not available. No hardcopy of customer manuals available overall and in each section where relevant. Quality in charge does not fully understand customer requirements.
- Lighting found below the required FC plus.
