As IoT evolves, projects are shifting from being experimental and exploratory to business critical. This makes them more complex, ensures they receive more scrutiny and, inevitably, increases the opportunities for things to go wrong. This is even more true when you consider that IoT devices and solutions have a long shelf life, making long-term success only possible if you’re properly planning and building today for the unknown factors in the future.

First article inspection (FAI) is a crucial step in the manufacturing process. The quality control (QC) team needs to optimize this phase of inspection in order to limit the back and forth between conception and fabrication. The QC team must not only correctly identify the defects, but also provide relevant data, measurements, and results for solving the identified problems.
