Third party Pre shipment inspection
LMATS provide international accredited certification
Pre-shipment inspection or PSI, is a an important part of supply chain management and an important and reliable quality control method for checking goods' quality while clients buy from the suppliers
Normally an independent inspection company is assigned with the task of the PSI, as it is in the interest of the buyer that somebody not connected with the purchase in any way verifies the amount and quality. This way the buyer makes sure, he gets the goods he paid for.
In many cases a bank transfer will only take plase if there is an independant certificate of inspection that it with the documentation.
