In OEM & ODM projects , the cost isn't just about building the product — there's the potential cost of errors. Things can happen, a misplaced connector hole, an incorrect material, a failed load test discovered at delivery, a miscommunication about color can derail a launch and damage your planning.
At Simply Metal, we take the sample phase seriously to avoid issues. To us, samples are not a formality; it's a critical stage to minimize risk and problems.

Our pre-production team created the Sample Inspection plan. Designed for one purpose: to ensure that full production delivers;


1) the product blueprint and instructions to the letter,
2) any design updates between sample and production are carried out with precision,
3) the product fits your brand from a market, colorway and design perspective.

Ways that the Pre-Production Sample Inspection Supports Your

OEM/ODM Order
✅Design and Product Matching: Millimeter-level precision inspection based on your drawings and material specs.
✅Double Assembly Test: We perform two assembly tests and a load bearing test to optimize the safety and how-to build instructions, ensuring a stress-free, and fun installation for your customers.
✅Packaging Verification: We check that outer packaging is sturdy, printed correctly and attractive.
✅Detailed Report: As part of your order, you receive a complete  quality control report. Every problem or issue we find, is listed along with its solution. We have saved customers $10K's+ using this method. 
This is how we transform your brand's design into a flawless shipment and delivery.
