1. Factory inspection is a matter of the following business, which has little to do with the management
Some enterprise bosses do not pay attention to or care about the customers before the factory inspection. After the audit, if the factory inspection results are not good, the bosses will blame the responsible person or even dismiss him. In fact, if it is a cohesive team and the factory inspection is coordinated by all employees, how can the person in charge of a small project push forward if the management who is in charge of the power does not pay attention to it, does not speak and does not authorize it.
2. Keep the same to cope with changes, and a set of schemes shall be applied to all factory inspections
This kind of enterprise has loose internal management and does not work seriously. Each customer has different requirements for factory inspection. For example, some customers require that the requirements of laws and regulations be fully met, while some customers especially emphasize transparency and allow you to have problems. Therefore, we must make targeted preparations and provide information to customers.
3. Trust some consulting companies and choose the cheapest consulting agency to reduce costs
Some foreign trade companies do not understand what factory inspection is all about, thinking that they can pass the factory inspection as long as they give money. They did not consider the strength of the consulting institutions and chose the consulting institutions with the lowest prices for guidance. They did not realize that these consulting institutions only received orders at low prices and later charged other fees in disguise. Therefore, it is best to search the company information, success cases, company strength and personnel allocation of the consulting institution before making a decision.
4. You don’t have to do anything by yourself
Some enterprises only pursue immediate interests and put all their energy on finding customers to sign contracts, while outsourcing all the troublesome matters such as factory inspection to external consulting institutions and waiting for good audit results. In fact, this is really a fool’s dream. No consultant can replace the factory. If you don’t sort out all the documents and records on the site and hand them over to the consultant for writing, but the employees don’t know what to ask, such passing the review will take a great risk and waste a rare learning opportunity.
5. Believe too much in the so-called relationship
Chinese people like to engage in relationships. Some enterprises only listen to the boast of individual consulting organizations and ask you to spend money to find someone to solve problems. If this is the case, the credibility of the audit company will be lost long ago. However, audit companies and auditors also have strict job responsibilities, and they basically do not have the power to cover up the sky. For example, in their work, they need to take photos and copy materials to submit them to their superiors for reference, and the audit company also needs to conduct surprise inspections on the auditors. It’s not a so-called relationship that can handle everything. We should take it seriously and start from ourselves.
6. Some people are too confident about the hidden rules
Many heads of foreign trade enterprises think that foreigners like to buy people’s hearts with hidden rules, just like Chinese people. They think it’s OK to get people. However, many foreign businessmen do not like this. The audit company has very strict requirements and reporting system on integrity. If you are photographed and reported on the spot and reported to the end customer, it will not only affect the order, but also be listed on the customer’s blacklist.
7. Opportunism and fraud
In some enterprises that do not seek to make progress, when customers mention factory inspection, the first thought in their minds is how to cheat and get through. They have no intention of making positive improvements in the past. In fact, now this routine is more and more difficult to pass, and the verification skills of audit companies are becoming more and more sophisticated. If you are an enterprise that wants to develop in the long run, you must face up to your own shortcomings. The more fraudulent elements, the lower the probability of passing the factory inspection.
8. Full confidence in hardware
The audit company’s factory inspection not only depends on the appearance, but also on the fact that some enterprise bosses are very confident about the factory inspection because they are newly built factories and office buildings. They feel that their own factories are much more beautiful than other factories around them, and there is no problem at all. The experimental plant contains a lot of things. In addition to the visible hardware, the audit pays more attention to the software. Although the hardware of some factories is not particularly good, they have made great efforts in management, which is hard for outsiders to see;
9. Belittle yourself and it should be impossible to pass the factory inspection
Contrary to the above overconfidence, some factories think that their hardware is also ordinary and the scale is not large, so they are very confident that it should be impossible to pass the customer’s factory inspection. In fact, you don’t have to think so. Although some factories are small in scale and their hardware is not very bright, as long as they cooperate fully and make efforts to correct, the final results of factory inspection of many small factories are not bad.
10. Do not pay attention to the on-site image of the enterprise, only pay attention to document records
The first step of factory inspection must be to see. If your on-site management is messy, it is hard to believe that you are an enterprise with standardized management and qualified production quality, and a first impression of reasonable planning and order is very important to others. Because all audits are manual, since it is human, there is subjectivity. A good corporate image will certainly leave a good first impression.
