Quality Control & Sourcing

At TOP INSIGHT we understand that high-quality components are essential to the success of your ebike manufacturing business.
That's why we work with a network of trusted suppliers to provide the best components for your needs.

Supplier selection, evaluation and component sourcing

We carefully select and evaluate suppliers based on their track record, quality control processes, and other factors. We work with our network of suppliers to source the best and latest components for your needs, including batteries, motors, controllers, displays, sensors, frames and more. Thanks to our experience and end-market data feedback we know what technology is mature and reliable.

Quality control inspections

We conduct thorough inspections of all ebikes and components to ensure that they meet the highest standards of safety and reliability. Our inspections cover everything from visual inspections to functional tests. Our inspections are thorough and cover all aspects, including component inspections, frame and fork inspections, CKD parts inspections. By conducting these inspections, we ensure that the correct parts are produced to the desired specifications and quantity and are safely packed for transportation.

We provide tailor-made inspections according to the level of scrutiny that fits the most with your need and the type of component. We pre-define together prior to your inspection the sampling size and AQL based on ISO 2859-1. For specific electronic and functional test, our team can integrate them in its QC process according to your need and specified documentation.

By working with us for your sourcing and quality control needs, you can rest assured that you're getting the best components for your
ebike manufacturing business

Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI)

Pre-Shipment Inspection allows us to detect and replace any defects right after the manufacturing process. Avoid paying for any ebikes or ebike components that carry defects. Once your order is ready but before you send the balance payment to the factory, TOP INSIGHT will schedule an appointment with the factory and send a team on site to inspect your order without delaying the shipment. 

Depending on the product type and the pre-defined sampling size and AQL, we can inspect your order as follows:

  • Test ride (100% for ebike)
  • Quantity and packaging check
  • Optical inspection (Visual defect & abnormalities)
  • Technical check (BOM & drawing)
  • Alignment Check (Frame & fork inspections)
  • Functionnal test (FCT, battery charge/discharge cycle test)
  • Specific electronic component test (burn-in, AOI)

Any defects found will be documented and evaluated according to the Minimum Quality Cap (MQC). Based on the analysis of results, TOP INSIGHT will determine if your purchase order have passed or failed the inspection according to our pre-defined standards. We will send you a detailed inspection report within 2 working days.

Inline Inspection (II)

TOP INSIGHT Inline Inspection allows you to monitor your ebikes or ebike component being produce during all steps of the manufacturing process. Usually combined with the Pre-Shipment Standard Inspection (PSI), the Inline Inspection is useful for clients who require more hands-on quality control, and start on the first day of production with our engineer present on site.

Our Inline Inspection include:

  • Raw material conformity with BOM
  • Compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Quality Control Plan (QCP)
  • Review and optimization of factory control system
  • Tracking of defects and reworks
  • Overall monitoring of production defects

Inspecting your components during manufacturing stage offers several advantages:

  • Improved and optimized production stages
  • Identification and correction of deviation and quality problems
  • Know the quality of your product during the manufacturing
  • Reduction in cost: preventing any recalls and damage of your brand awareness by replacement of faulty components prior to shipment
  • Overall monitoring of production defects
