Traveling Inspection
Classifying inspection by its place, Traveling Inspection means to go to the supplier's or subcontractor's site to perform the acceptance inspection of purchased parts or subcontract goods instead of performing it in the company's own site. This is performed in the case where the company has no inspection facilities, or the next process is also to be subcontracted.
