Incoming Defect Rate Overview
Incoming Material Quality – May 2025
-
Total Received: 2,413
-
Accepted: 2,332
-
Pass Rate: 96.64%
-
Target: 95%
-
April Pass Rate: 97.60%
-
Change: ▼ 0.96%
Despite maintaining a pass rate above target, the drop from April's performance indicates a potential early-stage issue. The decline aligns with an increase in paint and surface finish problems.
Incoming Defect Rate – May 2025
-
Total Defects: 81
-
Defect Rate: 3.36%
-
April Defect Rate: 2.40%
-
Increase: ▲ 0.96%
The increase in defect rate suggests that suppliers may be facing quality control challenges, or that internal inspection protocols may need recalibration. The rising trend over two consecutive months should not be overlooked.
Common Defect Types
Product Type | Issue Description | Defect Rate |
---|---|---|
Plastic Parts | Paint defects, uneven surface | >75% |
Displays | Dots, color spots, dead pixels | 30–67% |
Metal Frames | Coating issues, welding defects | 30–40% |
Plastic parts remain the dominant contributor to incoming defects, primarily due to surface treatment inconsistencies. Display modules continue to suffer from pixel integrity problems, which could negatively impact end-user perception.
Actions & Recommendations
-
Enhanced Inspection Protocols: Increase sampling frequency for high-risk components (e.g., plastic housings and displays).
-
Supplier Communication: Request corrective action reports (CARs) from underperforming suppliers, with root cause analysis (RCA) due by mid-June.
-
Quality Trend Monitoring: Set weekly reviews for defect rates across top 5 suppliers.
-
Supplier Audit Plans: Prepare targeted audits focusing on coating and display testing lines in Q3.
-
Training: Internal team refreshers on critical defect criteria to align inspection teams.
