A range review that ignores quality control process will often produce a confident decision and a disappointing quarter on the Lux 5.
Where two suppliers look identical on price, quality control process is usually the variable that separates them over a full year.
Why quality control process matters on the Lux 5
Incoming inspection sampling catches most issues before they reach shops.
The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Lux 5 economics actually settle.
Functional testing of a sample from each batch is standard practice.
