Whether within Japan or overseas, when creating prototypes for mass production, staff from the Quality Assurance Division carry out on-site inspection of the production line. They verify what kind of documentation is posted, and whether required regulations are being followed, strictly checking that the rigorous quality control system is being maintained prior to proceeding to production.

We evaluate whether products are completed as stipulated by performing on-site spot checks at the production site, checking that products are assembled as specified and are free of any defects. Moreover, an additional spot check is provided by the Quality Assurance Division under direction from headquarters.
In some instances, products manufactured at our overseas factories are sent directly to the delivery destination without passing through headquarters in Japan. In such cases, a separate inspection team with the Quality Assurance Division in Japan oversees inspection independent of the factory's quality assurance department.
