You already pay for inspections.This is what that money should buy.
Pacod runs booking, protocol, field inspection, evidence capture, corrective action and the shipment gate on a single style record — and gives your factories a free workspace so they actually adopt it.

What you own versus what the factory owns.
The unspoken question is whether the factory can game the record. It cannot. Control sits on your side of the table, in writing.
The inspection engine, in one paragraph.
The inspector runs a guided check on a phone. AQL computes live on ISO 2859-1 General Level II as they work — no lookup tables, no arithmetic at the end of a long shift. Photos attach to defects at the moment of the finding. A failure raises a corrective action with a visible deadline: 24 hours inline, 72 at final, 96 pre-shipment.

Quality-platform rollouts fail on factory resistance, not on features. Pacod funds the factory instead of billing it: Factory Workflow is included free with your Buyer QMS, its self-inspections stay private to it, and its quality score travels with it into its next order conversation.
One season. Three to five styles. Free.
Same styles, same season, on your real orders. Nothing to approve, and nobody to convince internally.
Day 1 live. No implementation project.
No IT ticket, no integration, no implementation fee. First real check on a real order inside two weeks.

Also outside scope: carbon and life-cycle footprint, due-diligence reporting, social compliance auditing, certification verification, and ERP or PLM integration. If one of those is your primary requirement we will tell you on the call.
Who signs off on the shipment?
You do. The accept or reject decision is a buyer-side control and cannot be exercised from a plant workspace. The decision and the evidence behind it live on the same style record.
Can the factory edit an inspection?
No. A factory can run its own private self-checks and execute corrective actions. It cannot create final or pre-shipment schedules, build protocols, or alter a submitted inspection.
What does it cost to start?
The pilot season is free, and there is no implementation fee. Commercial terms come after you have the season on the record — nothing to route through procurement to get started.
