1. Factory & Process Auditing

•  Plan, schedule, and execute comprehensive on-site factory audits (covering quality management systems, manufacturing capabilities, and worker safety conditions).
•  Evaluate production lines, machine calibration, storage conditions, and material handling workflows to identify process vulnerabilities.
•  Assess supplier compliance with international and local quality frameworks [e.g., ISO 9001, ISO 14001, GMP].

2. Product Auditing & Inspection

•  Conduct strict product audits at various stages: Raw materials (IQC), Inprocess (IPQC), and Finished goods (FQC).
•  Verify products against technical drawings, standard operating procedures (SOPs), golden samples, and spec sheets.
•  Perform or oversee physical testing [e.g., stress tests, functional tests, packaging drop tests, dimensional checks].

3. Defect Management & Supplier CAPA

•  Document, categorize, and report all product non-conformances and factory audit failures.
•  Issue formal Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) requests to suppliers or production teams.
•  Follow up rigorously on CAPA implementation, validating that root causes of defects have been permanently resolved.

4. Reporting & Continuous Improvement

•  Compile detailed factory audit scores and product inspection reports for management review.
•  Track supplier performance metrics (defect rates, audit pass rates) and lead regular quality review meetings.
•  Identify opportunities to streamline factory workflows to reduce waste and lower defect rates.
